Abstract: The present invention is directed to a multilayer ceramic capacitor. The multilayer ceramic capacitor has a first end and a second end that is spaced apart from the first end in a longitudinal direction that is perpendicular to a lateral direction wherein the lateral direction and longitudinal direction are each perpendicular to a Z-direction. The multilayer ceramic capacitor comprises a monolithic body comprising a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of electrode layers parallel with the lateral direction. At least one electrode layer includes a first electrode comprising a connecting portion and a central portion extending from the connecting portion in the longitudinal direction wherein the central portion includes a Z-directional edge and the connecting portion includes an edge extending in both the longitudinal direction and the Z-direction and wherein the Z-directional edge of the central portion forms a first angle of from greater than 90° to less than 180° with the edge of the connecting portion. A first external termination disposed along the first end and a second external termination disposed along the second end.
