Abstract
An element body of a rectangular parallelepiped shape includes a principal surface arranged to constitute a mounting surface, a pair of side surfaces opposing each other and adjacent to the principal surface, and a pair of end surfaces opposing each other and adjacent to the principal surface and the pair of side surfaces. An external electrode includes a sintered metal layer disposed on an end portion of the element body, and a conductive resin layer including a portion positioned on the principal surface and a portion positioned on the sintered metal layer. An end edge of the sintered metal layer is positioned closer to the end surface than a maximum thickness position of the portion positioned on the principal surface. A thickness of the conductive resin layer gradually decreases from the maximum thickness position to the portion positioned on the sintered metal layer.
