Abstract
Described examples include a semiconductor device having a resistor. The resistor includes a first terminal and a second terminal. The resistor also includes a first resistive element over an insulating layer over a substrate having a first end coupled to the first terminal of the resistor and a second end coupled to the second terminal of the resistor; and a parallel second resistive element over the insulating layer over the substrate having a first end coupled to the first terminal of the resistor and a second end coupled to the second terminal of the resistor. The resistor may also be coupled in series with another resistor.
