A dielectric ceramic composition for low-temperature sintering and hot
insulation resistance (hot IR) is capable of carrying out low-temperature
sintering, improving a hot IR characteristic, and meeting X5R
characteristics, and a multilayer ceramic capacitor makes use of the
dielectric ceramic composition. The dielectric ceramic composition
includes a main component BaTiO.sub.3, and sub-components, based on 100
moles of the main component, MgO of 0.5 moles to 2.0 moles,
Re.sub.2O.sub.3 of 0.3 moles to 2.0 moles, MnO of 0.05 moles to 0.5
moles, V.sub.2O.sub.5 of 0.01 moles to 0.5 moles, BaO of 0.3 moles to 2.0
moles, SiO.sub.2 of 0.1 moles to 2.0 moles, and borosilicate glass of 0.5
moles to 3.0 moles, where Re includes at least one selected from the
group consisting of Y, Ho and Dy.
