Problems solved by technology

However, in order to resist sintering in an oxidizing atmosphere, it is necessary to use an expensive noble metal as a material for the internal electrodes of the capacitor body, and Ni or Ni alloys, which are currently mainstream, cannot be used as materials for the internal electrodes.
[0016] In addition, in the case of using a resistance component such as a ruthenium oxide compound that is not reduced as the material for the above-mentioned second conductive layer, since it is impossible to obtain a A highly reliable electrical connection state between them, so a layer for ensuring conduction with internal electrodes is further required
The above-mentioned first conductive layer also has the function of ensuring the conduction with the internal electrodes. Therefore, in the technology described in Patent Document 3, the first to third conductive layers are required, and the thickness of the external electrodes cannot be avoided.

Abstract

Disclosed is a preferable structure for an external electrode which is used in a multilayer ceramic capacitor and also serves as a resistor element. The external electrode having such a structure is not reduced even by firing in a reducing atmosphere, thereby allowing an internal electrode to use Ni or a Ni alloy, and realizes good electrical connection with the internal electrode. Specifically disclosed are external electrodes (6, 7) formed on the outer surface of a capacitor main body (2) which respectively have a structure comprising a conductive layer (8) and a metal plating layer (9) formed on the conductive layer (8). The conductive layer (8) has a composition containing a glass component and a complex oxide such as an In-Sn complex oxide that is reactive with Ni or a Ni alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a multilayer ceramic capacitor and a method for adjusting its equivalent series resistance, and more particularly, to a multilayer ceramic capacitor having an external electrode also functioning as a resistance element and a method for adjusting its equivalent series resistance. Background technique [0002] Traditionally, capacitors have been classified as follows: multilayer ceramic capacitors are used to eliminate high-frequency voltage fluctuations in smoothing circuits, while tantalum capacitors or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used to eliminate low-frequency voltage fluctuations. [0003] As mentioned above, multilayer ceramic capacitors are specially used to eliminate high-frequency voltage fluctuations because the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of multilayer ceramic capacitors is smaller than that of tantalum capacitors or aluminum electrolytic capacitors, so the equivalent circuit composition of multi...
