Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a micro-layered multilayer capacitor having an overcurrent or overheat protection function, and more particularly to a material having a polymer positive temperature coefficient between a positive electrode and a cathode electrode (PPTC) The electrolyte layer, so that the capacitor ^ has the function of overcurrent or overheat protection. [Prior Art] According to the evolution of semiconductor technology, the production of semiconductor components is increasing, and more sophisticated and more advanced electronic components are being developed. In the current semiconductor technology, technologies such as flip chip mounting, design of laminated substrates, and design of passive components are indispensable in the semiconductor industry. Taking a flip chip/ball grid array package structure as an example, the wafer system is disposed on the surface of the package substrate, and the crystal package substrate is electrically connected, and the package substrate is a multi-layer patterned circuit layer and a plurality of insulation layers. The patterned circuit layer can be defined by: micro-etching, and the insulating layer is disposed between the phase diagrams and the circuit layers. In addition, in order to obtain better electrical characteristics τ 2, the surface of the substrate is further provided with a capacitor, an inductor, a resistor, etc., which can be passively used to encapsulate the internal wiring of the substrate, and an electrical sheet and other electronic components. According to the design of the passive component, since the wafer is transferred at high speed, the thermal energy generated by the wafer is transferred to the package substrate, and i is transmitted to the broken component. In order to make the passive component not under the high temperature of the ring = 5 1331346, its electrical characteristics are not affected. Therefore, passive components with high temperature resistance and high stability must be designed, and a micro-sized multilayer capacitor is one of them. Generally, a micro-sized multilayer capacitor is mainly composed of a multilayer dielectric layer and a plurality of metal layers, wherein the dielectric layer is composed of a material having a high dielectric constant, such as barium titanate, and the metal layer is It is composed of a conductive material such as silver or silver-palladium alloy, and the multi-layer metal layer forms a plurality of internal electrodes of alternating anodes and cathodes, and the inner electrodes and the dielectric layers form a capacitor structure on both sides thereof. A pair of terminal electrodes are also disposed, which are electrically connected to the inner electrodes of the anode and the cathode respectively to form an anode and a cathode, and the surface of the anode and the cathode can form a surface metal layer such as nickel to prevent oxidation. Although the micro-sized multilayer capacitors can be formed by stacking multiple dielectric layers and multiple metal layers, the volume can be miniaturized and the application range can be increased. However, the temperature characteristics are poor, and the leakage current and the dielectric loss are large. When the current flowing between the cathode and the cathode, or the voltage between the two poles exceeds the specification, the safety characteristics will be destroyed, causing damage to the dielectric layer and the metal layer, and affecting the electronic circuit connected thereto, resulting in a motherboard, etc. Damage to the electronic device. Therefore, how to develop and design a multilayer capacitor with overcurrent or overheat protection will be an urgent task for the industry. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The inventors have in view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, and according to the manufacturing experience and technical accumulation of each of the 6 1331346 laminated capacitors, the methods for solving the above-mentioned problems are studied in the past, and after continuous research and experiment. = 良后' finally developed and designed the invention of a new type of micro-layered capacitor with overcurrent protection function, in order to reduce the lack of prior art.
