Abstract

This invention relates to an improvement in a terminal connecting portion in an electronic device such as a capacitor having a plate or strip terminal. An electronic device has a device body. An insulator is formed on at least one portion of the outer surface of the device body. A pair of electrode layers are formed on the insulator. They are made of conductive material. A pair of plate or strip terminals having flat surfaces overlaid on the electrode layers and connected to the device body by the electrode layer. Each of the terminals has a projection projecting from the flat surface, is embedded in the electrode layer, and is formed of conductive material having a higher melting point than that of the electrode layer.
