  • Patent number: 10839990
    Abstract: A chip resistor having a predetermined resistance value is manufactured by the following method. A resistive element is provided on an upper surface of an insulating substrate. The resistive element includes a wide portion, a first narrow portion extending from the wide portion, and a part extending from the wide portion, the first narrow portion has a smaller width than the wide portion. First and second electrodes are provided on the upper surface of the insulating substrate. The first electrode is located away from the wide portion. The first electrode contacts the first narrow portion. The first electrode overlaps the first narrow portion when viewed from above. The second electrode contacts the part of the resistive element. The second electrode overlaps the part of the resistive element when viewed from above. A distance between the narrow portion and the wide portion is determined so as to cause a resistance value between the first and second electrodes to be the predetermined resistance value.

  • Patent number: 6348392
    Abstract: A resistor has a low resistance which precisely falls within a prescribed range regardless of the variation in the contact position of the probes. The resistor comprises a substrate, a pair of upper-surface electrode layers having respectively a notched section, provided on both sides of upper surface of the substrate, a resistor layer provided so that it is connected electrically to said upper-surface electrode layers, a protective layer formed to cover at least the resistor layer and side-face electrode layers provided respectively on side faces of said substrate so that the side-face electrode layers are overlapping on part of upper surface of said upper-surface electrode layers for electrical connection. The above construction reduces the dispersion in measuring the resistance even if contact positions of the probes for the resistance measurement vary.
