Abstract
A thin-film capacitor in which a plurality of capacitor elements are arranged side by side, each capacitor element being constituted by a dielectric layer, a first electrode layer formed on the lower surface of said dielectric layer, and a second electrode layer formed on the upper surface of said dielectric layer, wherein among the neighboring capacitor elements, there are provided first terminal electrode layers for connecting the neighboring first electrode layers together, and second terminal electrode layers for connecting the neighboring second electrode layers together; said first terminal electrode layers and said second terminal electrode layers are so arranged as will not be overlapped one upon the other; and said first and second terminal electrode layers are provided with an external terminal, respectively. The capacitor can be easily mounted on an external board and has a low-inductance structure.
