Abstract
A laminated capacitor has an end surface pitch Pe, which defines an interval between adjacent first and second external terminal electrodes disposed on end surfaces having shorter sides in a body of a laminated capacitor, which is equal to or less than about 0.9 times of a side-surface pitch Ps, which defines an interval between adjacent first and second external terminal electrodes disposed on side surfaces having longer sides, in order to enhance the effect of magnetic-flux cancellation at the end surfaces and to reduce the equivalent series inductance of the whole laminated capacitor.
