Abstract
A multilayer capacitor includes first and second internal electrodes that are opposed to each other so as to generate an electrostatic capacitance and have a capacitance generating portion functioning to generate the electrostatic capacitance, terminal connecting portions connected to corresponding external terminal electrodes, and extended portions connecting the capacitance generating portion to the terminal connecting portions. The extended portions are narrower than the capacitance generating portion and the terminal connecting portion and are curved in the direction of their thickness so as to provide a longer effective length. The multi-terminal capacitor is capable of increasing an ESR without adding a separate additional element.
