Abstract
A monolithic ceramic capacitor has at least two main buried electrodes extending to opposite ends of the ceramic body. Two auxiliary electrodes of smaller dimensions are buried between the two main electrodes and extend to one or both sides of the body. Conductive terminations may be applied to the surfaces of the body so that the capacity measured between the opposite body ends is close to a desired nominal value. This is accomplished by choosing or not choosing to apply termination portions for connecting each auxiliary electrode to a main electrode.
