A multilayer ceramic capacitor may include a monolithic body including a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of electrode regions. The plurality of electrode regions can include a dielectric region, an active electrode region, and a shield electrode region. The active electrode region may be located between the dielectric region and the shield electrode region in a Z-direction. The dielectric region may extend from the active electrode region to the top surface of the broadband multilayer ceramic capacitor. The capacitor may include a plurality of active electrodes arranged within the active electrode region and at least one shield electrode arranged within the shield electrode region. The dielectric region may be free of electrode layers that extend greater than 25% of a length of the capacitor. A ratio of a capacitor thickness to a thickness of the dielectric region may be less than about 20.
