A multilayer electronic component of the present invention includes dielectric
layers (7) and internal electrode layers (5) that are alternatively
laminated. The internal electrode layers (5) are exposed alternatively to
opposite sides in a laminating direction. The multilayer electronic component has
at both ends thereof external electrodes (3) connected to the internal electrode
layers (5), and the thickness of a connected end of the internal electrode
layers (5) with the external electrodes (3) is greater than the thickness
of a non-connecting end. Therefore, even if the internal electrode layers (5)
are thinned, the multilayer electronic component is excellent in electrical connection
property between the internal electrode layer (5) and the external electrodes
(5), thereby obtaining high electrostatic capacity.
