20220139633 | MULTILAYER CERAMIC CAPACITOR PACKAGE - A multilayer ceramic capacitor package accommodating multilayer ceramic capacitors includes a carrier tape that is elongated and includes recess pockets at equal or substantially equal intervals in a longitudinal direction, a cover tape that is elongated and attached to the carrier tape to cover an opening of each of the pockets, and the multilayer ceramic capacitors respectively accommodated in the pockets. In the multilayer ceramic capacitor package, in adjacent multilayer ceramic capacitors, a difference in densities of surfaces on an opening side of the pockets is about 0% or more and about 4% or less. | 2022-05-05 |
