Patent attributes
A ceramic electronic device includes: a multilayer chip in which dielectric layers are stacked, the multilayer chip having two end faces, an upper face, a lower face and two side faces; a plurality of internal electrode layers that are provided inside of the multilayer chip; and a pair of external electrodes that are provided on the two end faces and are connected to the plurality of internal electrode layers, wherein each of the pair of external electrodes has a smaller thickness in a region not connected to the plurality of internal electrode layers, has an inwardly inflected point as viewed toward the plurality of internal electrode layers, and has a larger thickness in a region connected to the plurality of internal electrode layers, as measured in a direction perpendicular to the corresponding end face.
