Abstract

A multilayer ceramic component includes multilayer ceramic capacitors disposed on opposing surfaces of a board in a thickness direction of the board and metal terminals connected to electrode pads disposed on the board. The metal terminals are partially exposed to an exterior of the multilayer ceramic component.

Claims (28)

1. A multilayer ceramic component comprising:

a board including a plurality of electrode pads disposed to be spaced apart from each other in a length direction on opposing surfaces of the board in a thickness direction of the board;

a plurality of first and second multilayer ceramic capacitors disposed on both surfaces of the board in the thickness direction such that external electrodes thereof are connected to electrode pads adjacent to the external electrodes, respectively;

a molding part enclosing the board and the plurality of first and second multilayer ceramic capacitors;

electrode pads disposed spaced apart from each other on the board in the length direction; and

first and second metal terminals, each having a first end connected to an electrode pad and enclosed by the molding part, and a second end exposed to an exterior of the molding part at least partially covering a surface of the molding part opposite the first end,

wherein the first and second metal terminals include:

first and second bonding portions disposed at the first end of a corresponding metal terminal, and having first ends connected to the electrode pads disposed to be spaced apart from each other on the board in the length direction, respectively, and second ends exposed to opposing surfaces of the molding part in a length direction of the molding part, respectively;

first and second terminal portions disposed at the second end of a corresponding metal terminal and spaced apart from each other on the surface of the molding part in a thickness direction of the molding part; and

first and second connection portions disposed on opposing surfaces of the molding part in the length direction, respectively, and connecting the first and second bonding portions to the first and second terminal portions, respectively.

2. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , wherein the electrode pads are disposed to face each other with the board interposed between the electrode pads and are electrically connected to each other by a via electrode penetrating through the board.

3. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , wherein the first and second connection portions have at least one groove.

4. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the electrode pads extends to be exposed to an end surface of the board in the length direction.

5. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , further comprising plating layers formed on the electrode pads.

6. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , wherein the multilayer ceramic capacitors include first and second external electrodes disposed on opposing end portions of a ceramic body in a length direction, respectively,

the first and second external electrodes including first and second connection portions disposed on opposing surfaces of the ceramic body in the length direction, respectively, and first and second band portions extended from the first and second connection portions to portions of at least one surface of the ceramic body in a thickness direction.

7. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 6 , wherein the multilayer ceramic capacitor includes a plurality of first and second internal electrodes alternately stacked in the ceramic body with respective dielectric layers interposed between the plurality of first and second internal electrodes to be alternately exposed to opposing surfaces of the ceramic body in the length direction, and connected to the first and second connection portions, respectively.

8. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 6 , further comprising conductive adhesive layers disposed between the electrode pads and the first and second band portions, respectively.

9. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 1 , wherein conductive adhesive layers are disposed between the electrode pads and the first and second metal terminals, respectively.

10. A multilayer ceramic component, comprising:

a board including a plurality of electrode pads disposed to be spaced apart from each other in a length direction on opposing surfaces of the board in a thickness direction of the board;

a plurality of first and second multilayer ceramic capacitors disposed on both surfaces of the board in the thickness direction such that external electrodes thereof are connected to electrode pads adjacent to the external electrodes, respectively;

a molding part enclosing the board and the plurality of first and second multilayer ceramic capacitors; and

first and second metal terminals having first ends connected to the electrode pads disposed to be spaced apart from each other on the board in the length direction, respectively, and second ends exposed to an exterior of the multilayer ceramic component, wherein the first and second metal terminals include

first and second bonding portions having first ends connected to the electrode pads disposed to be spaced apart from each other on the board in the length direction, respectively, and second ends exposed to opposing surfaces of the molding part in a length direction of the molding part, respectively,

first and second terminal portions disposed to be spaced apart from each other on a surface of the molding part in a thickness direction of the molding part, and

first and second connection portions disposed on opposing surfaces of the molding part in the length direction, respectively, and connecting the first and second bonding portions to the first and second terminal portions, respectively.

11. The multilayer ceramic component of claim 10 , wherein the first and second connection portions have at least one groove.
