Abstract
A ceramic electronic component includes an element body having a dielectric and internal electrodes, the element body having an upper surface, a lower surface, and side surfaces; external electrodes formed on multiple surfaces of the element body, and an oxide layer formed on the upper surface of the element body. Each of the external electrodes has a base layer and a plating layer, the base layer containing metal and having a lower part formed on the lower surface of the element body and a side part formed on one of the side surfaces of the element body and being connected to one or more of the internal electrodes, the plating layers being formed on the lower part of the corresponding base layer. The oxide layer has a surface roughness Ra that is equal to or greater than 0.20 micrometers.
