Multilayer electronic component containing coated conductive particles and method of manufacturing the multilayer electronic component

Abstract

A multilayer electronic component includes a body including a plurality of dielectric layers and internal electrodes disposed to oppose each other with the dielectric layers interposed therebetween; and external electrodes connected to the internal electrodes and including a plurality of conductive particles, wherein the plurality of conductive particles include first conductive particles, wherein the first conductive particles are plate-shaped conductive particles having a coating layer formed on a surface thereof, and wherein the coating layer includes Si, and an Si content is 0.3 at % or more and 2.0 at % or less, as compared to the plate-shaped conductive particles.
