A solid electrolytic capacitor of the present invention includes a capacitor element with an anode element and a cathode layer, having an anode lead member planted on one end surface of the anode element, an anode terminal connected to the anode lead member, a platy cathode terminal placed on a reverse surface of the capacitor element and connected to the cathode layer, and an enclosure resin part enclosing the capacitor element, a part of the cathode terminal and a part of the anode terminal being exposed from a bottom surface of the enclosure resin part. At least the cathode terminal has formed thereon a plurality of projections projecting in a position apart from a reverse surface of the enclosure resin part in a direction along the reverse surface.
