In the conventional thick film capacitor manufactured as described above, since the dielectric layer 3 is composed of the porous barium titanate-based dielectric, the humidity resistance is poor, and the humidity resistance is poor. In order to improve the structure, the dielectric layer 3 is coated with porous crystalline glass in advance and then with a resin having a low hygroscopic property. Since a small resin passes through the porous crystalline glass and impregnates it into the porous dielectric, the moisture resistance can be improved.

However, like the conventional thick film capacitor described above, before forming the resin coating 6, the dielectric layer 3 and the upper electrode 4 are covered with the glass coating 5 made of porous crystalline glass. Even if the upper electrode 4 is covered, the resin forming the resin coating 6 does not easily penetrate into the upper electrode 4 which is a very dense film as compared with the dielectric layer 3. The portion of the dielectric layer 3 located at is not impregnated with resin, and as a result, a cavity is generated in this portion, and the gas in this cavity passes through the resin coating 6 due to the heating in the manufacturing process. There is a problem that pores may be generated in the resin coating 6, moisture may infiltrate through the pores, or moisture resistance may be deteriorated due to a moisture absorption trap.

Further, in the above-described embodiment of the present invention, the upper electrode 15 is made of a thick film conductive material made of Ag, Pd, and an alloy thereof, and the thick film dielectric 14 is made of barium titanate or titanium. Although the one having a porous structure by being composed of a mixture of a lead acid-based ferroelectric material has been described, the present invention is not limited to this, and in addition to this, the upper electrode 15 is made of Ag, Pd and The thick film conductive material made of the above alloy may be mixed with an inorganic filler such as SiO 2 or Al 2 O 3 to form a porous structure. In this case, the upper electrode 15 is mixed with the inorganic filler. Since it is made porous by this, the resin having a low hygroscopic property that constitutes the resin protective film 16 easily penetrates into the upper electrode 15, and the thickness of the resin located below the upper electrode 15 is increased. In portions of the dielectric 14 results in the resin is reliably impregnated, thereby, for those resin impregnation of the entire thick film dielectric 14 is also uniform is obtained, the thick film dielectric 1
The number of cavities in 4 is also drastically reduced, and as a result, the gas in the cavities causes the resin protective film 16
Since the occurrence of pores in the
It is possible to reliably prevent the infiltration of water from the pores and the deterioration of the moisture resistance due to the moisture absorption trap.

As described above, the thick film capacitor of the present invention has an insulating substrate, a lower electrode formed on the insulating substrate, and a thick film formed on the lower electrode and on the insulating substrate. The upper electrode includes a dielectric, an upper electrode formed from above the thick film dielectric toward the insulating substrate, and a resin protective film formed so as to cover at least the thick film dielectric. Since at least the portion located on the thick film dielectric has a porous structure, this upper electrode is made porous like the thick film dielectric,
As a result, the resin having a low hygroscopic property that constitutes the resin protective film easily penetrates into the upper electrode, so that the resin is surely impregnated into the thick film dielectric portion located under the upper electrode. As a result, the number of cavities formed in the thick film dielectric below the upper electrode is drastically reduced, and it is extremely unlikely that the gas in the cavities causes pores in the resin protective film as in the conventional case. As a result, it is possible to reliably prevent the infiltration of water from the pores and the deterioration of the moisture resistance due to the moisture absorption trap.
