Multi-layer ceramic electronic component

A multi-layer ceramic electronic component includes a multi-layer unit and an external electrode. The multi-layer unit includes an end surface oriented in a first direction, a side surface oriented in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, a ridge connecting the end surface and the side surface, ceramic layers, and internal electrodes. The multi-layer ceramic electronic component satisfies the following relationships: A/L≥0.0142*ln(L)+0.0256, A/T≥0.0274*ln(T)+0.0719, B/L≥0.0103*ln(L)+0.0281, and B/T≥0.0189*ln(T)+0.0707, where A represents a thickness of the external electrode in the second direction at a position adjacent to the ridge on the side surface, B represents a thickness of the external electrode in the first direction at a position adjacent to the ridge on the end surface, L represents a dimension of the multi-layer ceramic electronic component in the first direction, and T represents a dimension of the multi-layer ceramic electronic component in the second direction.
