Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In a multilayer ceramic electronic component, a size of a step portion on a first main surface and a size of a step portion on a second main surface are different from each other. A first outer electrode includes a plating film containing Cu. A length of a portion of the plating film containing Cu that is positioned on the first main surface in a length direction and a length of a portion of the plating film containing Cu that is positioned on the second main surface in the length direction are different from each other.
