    Abstract: A sintered body that includes semiconductor ceramic layers and an internal electrode which are alternately stacked on one another is prepared. A first external electrode is formed on a side surface of the sintered body such that the first external electrode is connected to the internal electrode. An insulating layer is formed on a surface of the sintered body by applying a glass coating over an entire of the sintered body having the formed first external electrode. The insulating layer is exposed from the first external electrode. A second external electrode is formed on the first external electrode. This method provides the produced multilayer electronic component with a stable electric connection between the internal electrodes and the external electrodes.

    Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to provide a multilayer varistor with the ability to reduce the chances of causing crosstalk between external terminals. Inside a sintered body having the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, of which the longitudinal axis is aligned with a first direction, a first facing portion and a second facing portion are provided to interpose a third facing portion between themselves. At least one of a first side surface or a second side surface is provided with a first external electrode connected to the first facing portion, a second external electrode connected to the second facing portion, and a third external electrode and a fourth external electrode connected to the third facing portion. In the first direction, the first external electrode and the second external electrode are interposed between the third external electrode and the fourth external electrode.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a multilayer varistor includes: a first step including providing a multilayer stack in which a plurality of green sheet layers, each containing a Zn oxide powder as a main component and a Pr oxide powder as a sub-component, and a plurality of internal electrode paste layers, each containing a Pd powder, are alternately stacked; and a second step including forming a sintered compact, including an internal electrode inside, by baking the multilayer stack. The second step includes: a first sub-step including baking the multilayer stack by setting an oxygen concentration in an atmosphere at 1000 ppm by volume or less while increasing a temperature from 500° C. to 800° C.; and a second sub-step including baking, after the first sub-step, the multilayer stack by setting the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere at 1000 ppm by volume or more while increasing the temperature to a maximum allowable temperature.
