When a monolithic ceramic electronic component is viewed from either one of end surfaces thereof, an outer electrode includes a solder-repellent portion and a solder-receivable portion. The solder-repellent portion covers the central portion of an end surface of a ceramic laminate body. The solder-receivable portion includes portions disposed on two opposing sides of the solder-repellent portion. When the monolithic ceramic electronic component is mounted on the circuit board, solder does not adhere to a portion around the central portion of the end surface. Thus, expansion and contraction that occur as a result of application of an AC voltage are not significantly transmitted to the circuit board. Consequently, vibrations of the circuit board are reduced.

The capacitors referred to are those that can be produced in a parallel process on a prepeg or other common printed circuit board substrate without additional metallisation on copper. The pre-fabricated capacitor layer can then be built into the printed circuit board, thereby gaining on space and cost for the surface of the printed circuit board.
