Abstract
The surface mount chip capacitor of the present invention includes a wire and a conductive powder element electrically connected to the wire. The surface mount chip capacitor has insulative material surrounding at least a portion of the conductive powder element and the wire extending from the conductive powder element. A first terminal is formed on the surface mount chip capacitor at the first end surface of the wire and a second terminal is formed by being electrically connected to the conductive powder element. The surface mount chip capacitor of the present invention is created by methods which include the steps of forming a wire and placing conductive powder upon the wire. An embodiment of the present invention, presses the wire from a foil sheet and electrophoretically depositing the conductive powder element upon the wire.
