Abstract
A multilayer substrate includes a flexible element assembly including a principal surface, a first to an n-th external electrode disposed on the principal surface, and at least one first dummy conductor disposed inside the element assembly in a floating state. When the element assembly is viewed from a normal direction of the principal surface, a distance between an m-th external electrode and a nearest external electrode therefrom among the first to the n-th external electrodes is defined as a distance Dm, an average of distances Dto Dn is defined as an average Dave, and an area within a circle having a center on the m-th external electrode and having a radius of Dm is defined as an area Am. The first dummy conductor is located in at least one area Am having a radius of Dm greater than the average Dave when viewed from the normal direction.
