An electronic component has a support member, an SAW element which is mounted on the support member with a space S therebetween and which has a facing surface which faces the support member, and a resin portion which covers the SAW element and which is provided so as to seal the space S. The SAW element has a piezoelectric substrate, an IDT provided on the facing surface of the piezoelectric board, an wiring (an outer wiring) which is provided on the facing surface of the piezoelectric board and extends from the IDT toward the periphery side of the piezoelectric board, and a dam member which is adjacent to a lateral edge portion of the wiring and which is provided locally relative to the circumferential direction which surrounds the IDT.
