The second external electrode includes a third sintered electrode layer and a plated layer disposed on the third sintered electrode layer. The first, second, and third sintered electrode layers include a void. A void fraction of each of the first and third sintered electrode layers is larger than a void fraction of the second sintered electrode layer.
