Abstract

An electronic component having a substrate on which one or more grooves are formed on its opposing side faces; electrodes formed on the groove and top and bottom faces of the substrate at a portion adjacent to the groove; and a circuit element formed between the electrodes. An electrode is also formed on the opposing side faces of said substrate at a portion other than the grooves. This structure enables to improve the reliability of a soldered portion even for small electronic components with about 10 &mgr;m thick electrodes such as chip resistors, chip capacitors, and chip inductors.
