Abstract
A multilayer ceramic capacitor includes a multilayer body including first inner electrodes and second inner electrodes stacked in layers and dielectric layers, the multilayer body including a first outer electrode receiving portion at one end thereof in one direction, a second outer electrode receiving portion at the other end thereof in the one direction, and a main portion between the first and second outer electrode receiving portions, a first outer electrode over the first outer electrode receiving portion, and a second outer electrode over the second outer electrode receiving portion. A level difference exists at a boundary between the main portion and the first outer electrode receiving portion and at a boundary between the main portion and the second outer electrode receiving portion. An area of a cross section at a central position of the main portion in the one direction is greater than areas of cross sections at a position of the first outer electrode and at a position the second outer electrode.
