Abstract

A thin-type surface-mount capacitor is a solid electrolytic capacitor. The capacitor includes a capacitor element having an anode body in the form of a plate-like or foil-like valve-action metal that is area-increased, and a conductive functional polymer film used as a solid electrolyte. The capacitor further includes thermal adhesive insulating resin impregnated tapes that are stuck to the capacitor element on upper and lower sides thereof, and an element reinforcing metal plate and a solderable cathode terminal metal plate 67 that are stuck to the tapes, respectively. The capacitor is finally formed by applying a curing treatment under high temperature and pressure. Each of the metal plates is applied with a stepping process that provides a difference in level corresponding to a predetermined thickness.
