Abstract
An electronic component includes a laminate including dielectric layers and internal electrode layers stacked in a lamination direction. A first external electrode is on a first end surface of the laminate, and connected with a first of the internal electrode layers. A second external electrode is on a second end surface of the laminate, and connected with a second of the internal electrode layers. The first external electrode includes a first metallic layer connected to the first internal electrode layer, and a second metallic layer disposed on the first metallic layer. The first metallic layer has a higher specific resistance than the second metallic layer, and a difference between a thickness of an outermost portion of the first metallic layer in the lamination direction and a thickness of a center portion of the first metallic layer in a center in the lamination direction is about 5 μm or less.
