Abstract: An object is to provide a chip resistor in which hot spots can be dispersed and the adverse effects on performance caused by microcracks can also be reduced. A chip resistor includes an insulating substrate, a resistive element, and electrodes. In the resistive element, a first trimming groove and a second trimming groove are formed. A first vertical groove of the first trimming groove and a second vertical groove of the second trimming groove are formed with a spacing in between in an X1-X2 direction. A first horizontal groove of the first trimming groove and a second horizontal groove of the second trimming groove extend in directions approaching each other, and terminal ends of the first horizontal groove and the second horizontal groove are formed to be separated in the X1-X2 direction such that the first horizontal groove and the second horizontal groove do not overlap in a Y1-Y2 direction.

Abstract: A chip resistor includes an insulated substrate having a rectangular parallelepiped shape, a first front electrode and a second front electrode created on both longitudinal ends of the insulated substrate, and a resistive element making a connection between the first and second front electrodes. The resistive element is formed in a meandering shape with a first region and a second region continuing in series via a jointing section between a pair of connecting portions. Moreover, in the first region, a first trimming groove for rough adjustment is formed to elongate a current path of the resistive element. In the second region, a second trimming groove is formed for fine adjustment extending in a direction angled with respect to a straight line along a direction in which the first trimming groove extends.

Abstract: A chip resistor is capable of improving surge characteristic while finely adjusting a resistance value with high accuracy. A chip resistor includes a resistor which is print-formed such that a first meandering portion is consecutively connected to a second meandering portion across a rectangular adjustment portion. The adjustment portion is provided with a first trimming groove to lengthen a current path of the resistor, thereby improving the surge characteristic while coarsely adjusting a resistance value of the resistor to bring it close to a target resistance value. Furthermore, a second trimming groove is provided in an area of the second meandering portion where a current distribution is small, thereby finely adjusting the resistance value of the resistor to make it coincide with the target resistance value in accordance with a cutting amount of the second trimming groove.
