Abstract

A solid electrolytic capacitor includes a capacitor element from which an anode lead projects forward and having a surface on which a cathode layer is formed, an exterior resin covering the capacitor element, and anode and cathode terminals including, respectively, an anode and cathode terminal surfaces which are exposed from a bottom surface of the exterior resin. The anode terminal is formed from one metal plate, and includes a terminal part forming the anode terminal surface, a folded part folded back at a side edge of the terminal part and arranged over a top surface of the terminal part, and an upright part bent vertically to the top surface of the terminal part at a front edge or a rear edge of a tip end part of the folded part. A tip end part of the anode lead is electrically connected to a tip end of the upright part.
