1. A solid electrolytic capacitor comprising: a capacitor element that includes an anode body, a dielectric layer overlying at least a portion of the anode body, and a cathode overlying at least a portion of the dielectric layer, the cathode including a solid electrolyte; an anode lead that is electrically connected to a surface of the anode body by a refractory metal paste, wherein the refractory metal paste is sinter bonded to both the anode lead and the anode body; an anode termination that is electrically connected to the anode lead, wherein the anode termination contains a first component that is generally parallel to a first surface of the capacitor element; a cathode termination that is electrically connected to the cathode, wherein the cathode termination contains a second component that is generally parallel to the first surface of the capacitor element; and a case that encapsulates the capacitor element and leaves exposed at least a portion of the first component and the second component.
