Abstract

A metallized film capacitor includes a dielectric film, a first metal film electrode disposed on a surface of the dielectric film, and a second metal film electrode facing the first metal film electrode across the dielectric film. The first metal film electrode includes first and second large electrode parts separated from each other by a first slit, and a fuse provided in the first slit and connected to the first and second large electrode parts. The first metal film electrode includes an aluminum part and an aluminum-zinc part. The aluminum part contains substantially only aluminum. The aluminum-zinc part mainly contains zinc and further contains aluminum. The aluminum-zinc part is disposed at least around the first fuse.
