Abstract:
A multilayer ceramic electronic component includes a laminated body, a first external electrode, a pair of second external electrodes, and a pair of insulating coating portions. The pair of insulating coating portions extends in a laminating direction between each of the pair of second external electrodes and the first external electrode on a second principal surface, from the second principal surface to respective portions of a first side surface and a second side surface. A maximum thickness of the first external electrode on the second principal surface is larger than a maximum thickness of the pair of second external electrodes on the second principal surface. The maximum thickness of the pair of second external electrodes on the second principal surface is larger than a maximum thickness of the pair of insulating coating portions on the second principal surface.
Abstract:
An analysis device constructs an analytical model with a circuit board and a medium, and applies a concentrated load grouping composed of concentrated loads to the circuit board. In this case, the concentrated loads are established such that the sum of the respective vectors is zero, and such that the torque is zero with respect to the center of gravity. The analysis device applies a finite element method to the analytical model to figure out the vibration of the circuit board, which is caused when the concentrated loads vibrate with a constant period. The change in the pressure of the medium is computed from the vibration of the circuit board, and the change in the pressure is converted to a sound pressure.
Abstract:
In a capacitor, a width in a length direction of a first portion of a third outer electrode, which is a portion located on a first side surface, is greater than a width in a length direction of a second portion of the third outer electrode, which is a portion located on a first main surface. The first portion of the third outer electrode does not extend to first and second end surfaces.
Abstract:
A voltage smoothing circuit includes a multilayer capacitor including a first capacitance unit and a second capacitance unit and a regulator including an input terminal which is electrically connected to the second capacitance unit and an output terminal which is electrically connected to the first capacitance unit. The regulator calculates a first voltage which is applied to the first capacitance unit based on a second voltage which is applied to the second capacitance unit from the input terminal such that a potential difference which is applied to the first capacitance unit decreases or increases when a potential difference which is applied to the second capacitance unit increases or decreases, and outputs the first voltage from the output terminal.
