Abstract
In an electronic component, capacitor conductors include linear portions parallel or substantially parallel to a lower surface of a laminate, and lead-out portions led out respectively from the linear portions to the lower surface. Outer electrodes are disposed on the lower surface and cover exposed portions where the lead-out portions are exposed at the lower surface, respectively. At least one of the linear portions includes a groove, which is recessed in a direction away from the lower surface, in a region thereof overlapping with the corresponding outer electrode when looking at the electronic component in a plan view from a z-axis direction.
