1. A monolithic ceramic capacitor comprising:

  • at least three dielectric ceramic layers;

    at least one pair of internal electrodes each of which is disposed between a different pair of dielectric ceramic layers;

    a pair of external electrodes, each of which is electrically connected to a different one of said pair of internal electrodes;

    wherein the dielectric ceramic layers comprise a non-reducing dielectric ceramic comprising Ca, Zr and Ti as metallic elements, free of Pb, and having a perovskite primary crystal phase and other crystal phases;

    wherein the ratio of the maximum peak intensity of secondary crystal phases to the maximum peak intensity at 2θ

    =25°

    to 35°

    of the perovskite primary crystal phase in a CuKα

    X-ray diffraction pattern is about 12% or less, wherein the secondary crystal phases include all the crystal phases other than the perovskite primary crystal phase; and

    wherein the internal electrodes comprise a base metal.
