Abstract
A multilayer ceramic capacitor () having reduced inductance which is separated into a first layer body () and a second layer body (). The first layer body () and the second layer body () are formed by alternately layering inner electrodes (inner electrode, inner electrode) so as to face each other and sandwich ceramic layers (). The ceramic layers () of the second layer body () are thicker than the ceramic layers () of the first layer body (), so as to compensate for electrode height difference. Moreover, in the second layer body (), the inner electrodes () are electrically connected by via electrode () so that the part of the via electrode () extending without connection to an inner electrode () is shortened.
