Abstract
An electronic component is provided with improved thermal stability. The electronic component comprises at least one capacitive element wherein the capacitive element comprises internal electrodes of alternating polarity separated by a dielectric. External terminations with a first external termination of the external terminations are in electrical contact with internal electrodes of a first polarity and a second external termination of the external terminations are in electrical contact with internal electrodes of a second polarity. A first external lead frame is in electrical contact with the first external termination with a conductive bond there between wherein the first external lead frame comprises at least one feature selected from the group consisting of a perforation, a protrusion and an edge indentation.
