  • Method of manufacturing chip resistors with edge around terminations
    Patent number: 4694568
    Abstract: The rate of production of chip resistors is greatly increased by forming rows of chip resistors on a substrate, laser trimming the rows of resistors while still on the substrate, breaking up the substrate into separate rows of chip resistors, applying edge-around terminations to each of the separated rows of the chip resistors and separating the chip resistors from each other.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 7, 1982
    Date of Patent: September 22, 1987
    Assignee: North American Philips Corporation
    Inventors: Amedeo J. Morelli, Francis L. Gaylord
  • Resistor end terminations
    Patent number: 4050053
    Abstract: A resistor end termination consisting of aluminum or aluminum alloy, deposited on a resistor core, for providing secure and reliable electrical and mechanical connection between the resistor element and the cap and lead assembly of an electrical resistor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 22, 1976
    Date of Patent: September 20, 1977
    Assignee: North American Philips Corporation
    Inventors: Gaylord L. Francis, Amedeo J. Morelli
  • Hermetically sealed film resistor
    Patent number: 4016527
    Abstract: A hermetically sealed fixed film resistor including a coupling element of soft alloy material between the resistive element and the leads for providing strain relief. The resistive element is composed of a resistive film having coated ends composed of a refractory metallic material for providing reliable electrical and mechanical connection to the coupling element.
