Abstract
A chip-like network resistor is disclosed which is reduced in variation in resistance of terminal electrodes. A substrate (1) is formed on both ends (3, 5) with a plurality of recesses (7), at each of which a terminal electrode (17) connected to a thick-film electrode (9) is arranged. The terminal electrodes (17) each are constituted of a thin metal film electrode layer (19) and two plated layers (21, 23). The thin metal film electrode layer (19) includes a front surface electrode section (19a) formed on a front surface (1a) of the substrate (1) so as to overlap with the thick-film electrode (9), a side surface electrode section (19b) connected to the front surface electrode section (19a) and arranged so as to entirely cover an inner surface of the recess (7) and a rear surface electrode section (19c) formed on a rear surface (1b) of the substrate (1) and connected to the side surface electrode section (19b). The front surface electrode section (19a) of the thin metal film electrode layer (19) is formed so as to fully surround a periphery of one of open ends of each of the recesses 7.
