1. A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:
a first external terminal disposed along a first end of the capacitor;
a second external terminal disposed along a second end of the capacitor that is opposite the first end in a longitudinal direction;
an active electrode region containing alternating dielectric layers and active electrode layers; and
a shield electrode region containing at least two shield electrodes that are spaced apart by a shield layer gap in the longitudinal direction;
wherein a distance from the active electrode region to the shield electrode region is from about 4% to about 20% of a thickness of the capacitor between a top surface and a bottom surface opposing the top surface.
