Abstract
In a terminal member, a protuberance is formed so as to protrude toward an external electrode, and thereby, a bonding portion where the terminal member is bonded to the external electrode, the bonding portion being formed with solder, is extended substantially linearly across a part of the external electrode. Preferably, the direction in which the bonding portion is elongated linearly is in parallel to that in which internal electrodes are extended. Further, it is preferable that the bonding portion is as wide as possible, and the center of the bonding portion in the width direction is as near to the center of the end-face of the capacitor body as possible.
