Abstract
An electronic component includes an element body and outer electrodes on the element body. The element body includes top and bottom opposed surfaces, and side surfaces connecting the top and bottom surfaces. An outer electrode includes a lower layer electrode on the top surface and the bottom surface, and an upper layer electrode overlying the lower layer electrode and extending from an upper side of the lower electrode onto the side surface. When viewed from a direction orthogonal to the top and bottom surfaces, an edge of the lower layer electrode is disposed at a position farther from the side surface at which the upper layer electrode is provided than a position of an edge of the upper layer electrode, and a radius of curvature of the edge of the lower electrode is larger than a radius of curvature of the edge of the upper layer electrode.
