Original Abstract Submitted
A plurality of external electrodes are disposed on both ends of an element body. Each of the plurality of external electrodes includes a pair of electrode portions disposed on a pair of side surfaces and including a conductive resin layer. For each of the two conductive resin layers located on the same side surface, one conductive resin layer includes an edge opposing another conductive resin layer. The conductive resin layer includes a first region and a second region. The first region included a plurality of metal particles of a first content and a resin. The second region includes a plurality of metal particles of a second content smaller than the first content and a resin. The second region is located closer to the edge of the conductive resin layer than the first region, and includes the edge of the conductive resin layer.
