Abstract

A capacitor is provided having a tough surface portion which prevents cracking that tends to occur when the capacitor is built-in or surface-mounted on a wiring board. A ceramic sintered body of the capacitor includes a capacitor forming layer portion, a cover layer portion and an interlayer portion. The capacitor forming layer portion has a laminated structure wherein ceramic dielectric layers and inner electrodes connected to a peripheral portion of capacitor via conductors, are alternately laminated. The cover layer portion is exposed at a surface portion of the ceramic body and has a laminated structure wherein ceramic dielectric layers and dummy electrodes not connected to the capacitor via conductors, are alternately laminated.
