Abstract: A surface-mounting thin type capacitor includes a capacitor element having a shape of and two end portions which form a side surface of the capacitor element. Two anode terminals are disposed on lower surfaces of the end portions along the side surface to form a mounting surface substantially perpendicular to the side surface. A cathode terminal is disposed at a middle part of the capacitor element to form the mounting surface together with the anode terminals. The cathode terminal is not between the anode terminals spatially and thereby manufacturing process of the capacitor is simplified and it is easy to change the intended use of the capacitor.

Abstract: In a solid electrolytic capacitor, a second dielectric layer made of an oxide of valve action metal is formed on first side, second side, and third side surfaces of an anode portion of an anode member. Between the second dielectric layer and a conductive polymer layer of the cathode layer, an electrical insulating resin layer is formed.

Abstract: In a surface-mount thin-profile capacitor including an aluminum foil as a base member composed of an aluminum core and a pair of etched layers covering opposite surfaces of the aluminum core, a resist resin is formed at a boundary between an anode as each of opposite end portions of the aluminum foil and a cathode formed at a center area of each of opposite surfaces of the aluminum foil. The resist resin separates and isolates the etched layer on the side of the anode and a conductive polymer layer from each other. If a part of the conductive polymer layer climbs up onto the resist resin, the climbing part of the conductive polymer layer is covered with an additional resist resin.

Abstract: A thin-type surface-mount capacitor is a solid electrolytic capacitor. The capacitor includes a capacitor element having an anode body in the form of a plate-like or foil-like valve-action metal that is area-increased, and a conductive functional polymer film used as a solid electrolyte. The capacitor further includes thermal adhesive insulating resin impregnated tapes that are stuck to the capacitor element on upper and lower sides thereof, and an element reinforcing metal plate and a solderable cathode terminal metal plate 67 that are stuck to the tapes, respectively. The capacitor is finally formed by applying a curing treatment under high temperature and pressure. Each of the metal plates is applied with a stepping process that provides a difference in level corresponding to a predetermined thickness.
