Abstract
A multilayer LC composite component includes a coil unit including a stack of coil conductors, two adjacent coil conductors being separated by an insulating layer (dielectric layer) and being electrically connected to each other and a capacitor unit including a ground-side capacitor electrode and a signal-side capacitor electrode which oppose each other with an insulating layer disposed therebetween, the ground-side capacitor electrode having an electrode-free area at a central region thereof and the signal-side capacitor electrode being electrically connected to the coil unit via the electrode-free area. The ground-side capacitor electrode extends to at least two opposing sides of the insulating layer (dielectric layer) and has a cut portion (cross-shaped cut portion) which extends continuously from the electrode-free area.
