US Patent 7974077 Solid electrolytic capacitor

A solid electrolytic capacitor includes a capacitor element, an anode lead frame, a cathode lead frame, and a mold resin portion. The anode lead frame includes an anode terminal portion and a rising portion. The rising portion is formed integral with the anode terminal portion, and extends from the anode terminal portion through the mold resin portion toward the anode portion, and is connected to the anode portion. At the rising portion, a catching recess and a holding portion are formed and, in addition, a first slit is formed downward from the catching recess. Thus, a solid electrolytic capacitor allowing highly accurate and reliable attachment of the capacitor element to the lead frame without using any additional member is provided.
