Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) This application claims benefit of priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-0193639 filed on Dec. 31, 2021 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD The present disclosure relates to a multilayer electronic component. BACKGROUND A multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC), a multilayer electronic component, may be a chip-type capacitor which may be mounted on the printed circuit boards of various electronic products including an imaging device such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) and a plasma display panel (PDP), a computer, and the like, smartphones and mobile phones and may charge or discharge electricity. Such a multilayer ceramic capacitor may be used as a component of various electronic devices as a multilayer ceramic capacitor may have a relatively small size and high capacitance and may be easily mounted. As various electronic devices such as a computer and a mobile device have been miniaturized and have been designed to have high output, demand for miniaturization and high capacitance of a multilayer ceramic capacitor has increased. Also, as interest in electronic components for a vehicle has recently increased, a multilayer ceramic capacitor has also been required to have high reliability properties to be used in automobiles or an infotainment system. For miniaturization and high capacitance of the multilayer ceramic capacitor, it may be necessary to increase the number of laminated layers by reducing thicknesses of internal electrodes and dielectric layers, and by reducing the volume of the portion not affecting capacitance formation, an effective volume fraction required to implement capacitance may need to be increased. Also, it may be necessary to reduce a mounting space to mount a greater number of components within a limited area of a substrate. Also, as a thickness of a margin decreases with miniaturization and high capacitance of a multilayer ceramic capacitor, external moisture and a plating solution may easily permeate thereinto, and accordingly, reliability may degrade. Accordingly, a method for protecting a multilayer ceramic capacitor from permeation of external moisture or a plating solution may be necessary.
