Abstract
A feedthrough type three-terminal electronic component has a monolithic structure including stacked internal signal electrodes and internal ground electrodes with dielectric layers disposed therebetween Internal dummy electrodes, which essentially do not contribute to electrostatic capacity formation, are disposed in at least one of a region defined by both side portions of internal signal electrodes and an external ground electrode provided on both side surfaces of the monolithic structure, viewing the monolithic structure in planar fashion, and a region defined by both side portions of internal ground electrodes and external signal electrodes provided on both side surfaces of the monolithic structure, viewing the monolithic structure in planar fashion. Thus, a highly reliable feedthrough type three-terminal electronic component with a uniform sintering state in the monolithic structure, and low resistance, is provided.
