MUMBAI, India, Oct. 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202614015593 A) filed by Murata Manufacturing Co. , Ltd. on February 12, 2026, for Multi-Unit Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor.

Inventor includes Usui, Kazunori.

The application for the patent was published on October 02, 2026, under issue no. 40/2026.

Abstract: A multi-unit multilayer ceramic capacitor according to the present invention includes: a multilayer body having a first side surface and a second side surface that face each other in a lamination direction, a first principal surface and a second principal surface that face each other in a height direction orthogonal to the lamination direction, and a first end surface and a second end surface that face each other in a length direction orthogonal to both the lamination direction and the height direction; a first outer electrode running in the lamination direction on the second principal surface; and a second outer electrode running in the lamination direction on the second principal surface. The multilayer body includes, inside a single element assembly, a plurality of capacitor units each constituted by a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of inner electrode layers. The plurality of capacitor units are disposed at predetermined intervals in the length direction and the lamination direction. The inner electrode layers include: first inner electrode layers connected to the first outer electrode; and second inner electrode layers connected to the second outer electrode. Each of the first inner electrode layers includes: a first counter electrode portion; and a first extended portion protruding toward the - 59 - ABSTRACT - 60 - first outer electrode. Each of the second inner electrode layers includes: a second counter electrode portion; and a second extended portion protruding toward the second outer electrode. The first extended portion includes a first exposed portion exposed on the second principal surface. The second extended portion includes a second exposed portion exposed on the second principal surface. The first exposed portion located closest to the first side surface is convex toward the first side surface when viewed from the second principal surface. The first exposed portion located closest to the second side surface is convex toward the second side surface when viewed from the second principal surface. The second exposed portion located closest to the first side surface is convex toward the first side surface when viewed from the second principal surface. The second exposed portion located closest to the second side surface is convex toward the second side surface when viewed from the second principal surface.
