A solid electrolytic capacitor including a capacitor element having a front surface, a rear surface, an upper surface, a lower surface, a sintered anode body; an anode lead; an anode termination; and a cathode termination is described. The anode termination has a planar portion and an upstanding portion, where the planar portion of the anode termination has a first section and a second section, where the first section has a first thickness and the second section has a second thickness. Further, the second thickness is less than the first thickness, and the first section is disposed between the upstanding portion and the second section. In addition, the second section is disposed beneath the lower surface of the capacitor element. Moreover, the anode lead and capacitor element are generally parallel with the planar portion. Such an arrangement can result in a capacitor exhibiting improved mechanical and electrical stability.
