Abstract

A multilayer capacitor comprises a capacitor body; first and second inner electrodes alternately arranged in the capacitor body; and a first outer connecting conductor and first and second terminal electrodes arranged on an outer surface of the capacitor body. Each first inner electrode has a first main electrode portion and a first lead electrode portion for connecting the first main electrode portion to the first outer connecting conductor. Each second inner electrode has a second main electrode portion and a second lead electrode portion for connecting the second main electrode portion to at least one second terminal electrode. The capacitor body includes a first inner connecting conductor arranged outside of at least one set of first and second inner electrodes in the opposing direction of the first and second inner electrodes and connected to at least one first terminal electrode and the first outer connecting conductor.
