Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In an electronic component, each of an inductor conductor and a capacitor conductor is connected to a terminal electrode by a connection portion. The connection portion is exposed on the outer surface of the body of the electronic component and is connected to the terminal electrode. When manufacturing such an electronic component, the laminate is cut into individual pieces. At this time, if a shift occurs in the cutting position of the laminate, the length of the connection portion exposed on the cut surface (the outer surface of the body of the electronic component) may become shorter or longer. When the length of the connection portion changes, the inductor component (inductance value) of the connection portion changes, so the characteristics of the electronic component may change. Therefore, variations in characteristics may occur in the electronic components manufactured through the singulation process.

[0005] One aspect of the present invention aims to provide an electronic component capable of suppressing variations in characteristics.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] (1) An electronic component according to one aspect of the present invention includes a body formed by laminating a plurality of dielectric layers, and has a pair of end faces facing each other, a pair of main faces facing each other in the stacking direction of the plurality of dielectric layers, and a pair of side faces facing each other; a plurality of terminal electrodes disposed on the side faces of the body; an inductor conductor disposed in the body; a capacitor conductor disposed in the body at a position different from that of the inductor conductor in the facing direction of the pair of main faces; a connection conductor electrically connecting the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor; a first connection portion electrically connecting one of the plurality of terminal electrodes and the inductor conductor; and a second connection portion electrically connecting one of the terminal electrodes and the capacitor conductor.

[0007] In the electronic component according to one aspect of the present invention, the inductor conductor is electrically connected to one terminal electrode by the first connection portion, and the capacitor conductor is electrically connected to one terminal electrode by the second connection portion. That is, the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor are electrically connected to the same terminal electrode. In this configuration, in the electronic component, the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor are electrically connected by the connection conductor. As a result, in the electronic component, the first connection portion electrically connecting the inductor conductor and one terminal electrode and the second connection portion electrically connecting the capacitor conductor and one terminal electrode become approximately the same potential. Further, in the electronic component, since a current flows through the connection conductor connecting the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor to resonate, the current flowing through the first connection portion and the second connection portion decreases. Therefore, in the electronic component, the influence of the inductance component of the first connection portion and the second connection portion on the characteristics is small. Thus, in the electronic component, even when a change occurs in the length and the inductance component of the first connection portion and the second connection portion, the influence on the characteristics is small. As a result, in the electronic component, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0008] (2) In the electronic component of (1) above, it may include a plurality of inductor conductors, a plurality of capacitor conductors, and a plurality of connection conductors, and each of the plurality of inductor conductors and each of the plurality of capacitor conductors may be electrically connected by each of the plurality of connection conductors. When a plurality of sets (pairs) of inductor conductors and capacitor conductors are provided, that is, in a configuration where a plurality of resonators are provided in the electronic component, the influence of variations in characteristics due to the lengths of the first connection portion and the second connection portion also becomes significant. In the electronic component, when a plurality of sets of inductor conductors and capacitor conductors are provided, the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor in each set are electrically connected by the connection conductor. Therefore, even when a plurality of sets are provided in the electronic component, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0009] (3) In the electronic component of (1) or (2) above, the second connection portion may be provided between the inductor conductor and the capacitor conductor. That is, the second connection portion is not integrally formed with the capacitor conductor and is provided separately from the capacitor conductor. By arranging the second connection portion at a position different from the capacitor conductor in this way, the capacitance formed by the second connection portion and the capacitor conductor not connected to the second connection portion can be reduced. As a result, even when a deviation occurs in the opposing direction of a pair of side surfaces when the capacitor conductors are stacked, the amount of change in capacitance due to the deviation becomes small. Therefore, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0010] (4) In any one of the electronic components of (1) to (3) above, the inductor conductor is configured to include a plurality of conductors arranged at different positions in the opposing direction of a pair of main surfaces, and the first connection portion may be provided on at least one of the plurality of conductors.

[0011] (5) In any one of the electronic components (1) to (4) above, the capacitor conductor is composed of a plurality of conductors arranged at different positions in the direction facing the pair of main surfaces, and the second connection portion may be provided on at least one of the plurality of conductors.

Effect of the Invention

[0012] According to one aspect of the present invention, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0037] The inductor conductor 23 is provided with a connection portion (first connection portion) 54. That is, the electronic component 1 includes the connection portion 54.

The connection part 56 is exposed on the side surface 2e of the base body 2 and is connected to the third terminal electrode 5. The connection part 56 electrically connects the capacitor conductor 28 and the third terminal electrode 5.

[0040] The inductor conductors 20 and 23 constitute an inductor L3 (see FIG. 1). A plurality of inductor conductors (not shown) constitute an inductor L4 (see FIG. 1). The inductor conductors 21 and 23 constitute an inductor L5 (see FIG. 1).

[0041] The capacitor conductors 30 and 31 constitute a capacitor C4 (see FIG. 1). The capacitor conductors 29 and 32 constitute a capacitor C5 (see FIG. 1).

A plurality of capacitor conductors (not shown) constitute a capacitor C10 (see FIG. 1).

[0042] As described above, in the electronic component 1 according to the present embodiment, the inductor conductor 20 is electrically connected to the fifth terminal electrode 7 by the connection portion 51, the inductor conductor 22 is electrically connected to the fifth terminal electrode 7 by the connection portion 53, and the capacitor conductor 30 is electrically connected to the fifth terminal electrode 7 by the connection portion 55. That is, the inductor conductor 20, the inductor conductor 21, and the capacitor conductor 30 are electrically connected to the same fifth terminal electrode 7. In this configuration, in the electronic component 1, the inductor conductor 20, the inductor conductor 21, and the capacitor conductor 30 are electrically connected by the connection conductor 49. As a result, in the electronic component 1, the connection portions 51, 52, and 55 are approximately at the same potential. Further, in the electronic component 1, since a current flows through the connection conductor 49 that connects the inductor conductor 20, the inductor conductor 21, and the capacitor conductor 30 and resonates, the current flowing through the connection portions 51, 52, and 55 is reduced. Therefore, in the electronic component 1, the influence of the inductance components of the connection portions 51, 52, and 55 on the characteristics is small. Therefore, in the electronic component 1, even when a change occurs in the length at the connection portions 51, 52, and 55 and a change occurs in the inductance components of the connection portions 51, 52, and 55, the influence on the characteristics is small. As a result, in the electronic component 1, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0043] Similarly, in the electronic component 1, the inductor conductor 21 is electrically connected to the third terminal electrode 5 by the connection portion 52, the inductor conductor 23 is electrically connected to the third terminal electrode 5 by the connection portion 54, and the capacitor conductor 28 is electrically connected to the third terminal electrode 5 by the connection portion 56. That is, the inductor conductor 21, the inductor conductor 23, and the capacitor conductor 28 are electrically connected to the same third terminal electrode 5. In this configuration, in the electronic component 1, the inductor conductor 21, the inductor conductor 23, and the capacitor conductor 28 are electrically connected by the connection conductor 50. As a result, in the electronic component 1, the connection portion 52, the connection portion 54, and the connection portion 56 become approximately the same potential. Further, in the electronic component 1, since a current flows through the connection conductor 50 that connects the inductor conductor 21, the inductor conductor 22, and the capacitor conductor 28 and resonates, the current flowing through the connection portion 52, the connection portion 54, and the connection portion 56 is reduced. Therefore, in the electronic component 1, the influence of the inductance component of the connection portion 52, the connection portion 54, and the connection portion 56 on the characteristics is small. Therefore, in the electronic component 1, even when a change occurs in the length of the connection portion 52, the connection portion 54, and the connection portion 56, and a change occurs in the inductance component of the connection portion 52, the connection portion 54, and the connection portion 56, the influence on the characteristics is small. As a result, in the electronic component 1, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0044] When a plurality of sets (pairs) of inductor conductors and capacitor conductors are provided, that is, in a configuration in which a plurality of resonators are provided in the electronic component 1, the influence of variations in characteristics due to the length of the connection portion also increases. In the electronic component 1, a set (first resonator) of the inductor conductor 20, the inductor conductor 21, and the capacitor conductor 30 and a set (second resonator) of the inductor conductor 21, the inductor conductor 23, and the capacitor conductor 28 are provided. In the electronic component 1, the inductor conductor 20, the inductor conductor 21, and the capacitor conductor 30 are electrically connected by the connection conductor 49, and the inductor conductor 21, the inductor conductor 23, and the capacitor conductor 28 are electrically connected by the connection conductor 50. Therefore, even when a plurality of sets are provided in the electronic component 1, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.

[0045] In the electronic component 1 according to the present embodiment, the connection portion 55 is disposed between the inductor conductor 22 (inductor conductor 20) and the capacitor conductor 30 in the second direction D2. That is, the connection portion 55 is not formed integrally with the capacitor conductor 30 and is provided separately from the capacitor conductor 30. By disposing the connection portion 55 at a position different from the capacitor conductor 30 in this manner, the capacitance formed by the connection portion 55 and the capacitor conductor 31 not connected to the connection portion 55 can be reduced. As a result, even when a deviation occurs in the third direction D3 when the capacitor conductors 31 are stacked, the amount of change in capacitance due to the deviation is reduced. Therefore, in the electronic component 1, variations in characteristics can be suppressed.
