  • Chip network resistor
    Patent number: 5331305
    Abstract: A chip network resistor includes a plurality of discrete electrodes and common electrodes which are connected to a plurality of resistance elements according to a predetermined pattern. The configuration of the common electrodes is larger more than that of the discrete electrodes. Thereby, the contact resistance between the terminal of a measuring instrument and a common electrode is reducible when a value of resistance is measured.
