A conducting portion includes a plurality of conducting inner electrodes. Each of a pair of capacitance portions includes a plurality of signal inner electrodes while adjacently opposing each other in the laminating direction, a plurality of first grounding inner electrodes while adjacently opposing each other in the laminating direction, and a plurality of second grounding inner electrodes while adjacently opposing each other in the laminating direction. The plurality of first grounding inner electrodes are located between the conducting portion and the plurality of signal inner electrodes, while one of the first grounding inner electrodes adjacently opposes one of the first signal inner electrodes in the laminating direction. The plurality of second grounding inner electrodes are located between principal faces opposing each other in the laminating direction in the outer surface and the plurality of signal inner electrodes.

Feedthrough multilayer capacitor

An element body has a major capacitance forming portion to form a first capacitance, and a minor capacitance forming portion to form a plurality of second capacitances smaller than the first capacitance. The major capacitance forming portion includes a first internal electrode connected to a first terminal electrode, and a second internal electrode opposed to the first internal electrode and connected to a second terminal electrode. The minor capacitance forming portion includes a third internal electrode connected to the first terminal electrode, a fourth internal electrode arranged as separated from the third internal electrode in an identical layer and connected to the second terminal electrode, a fifth internal electrode opposed to the third and fourth internal electrodes and connected to the first terminal electrode, and a sixth internal electrode opposed to the third and fourth internal electrodes and opposed to the fifth internal electrode through a region between the third and fourth internal electrodes, and connected to the second terminal electrode.
