Abstract
In a chip type resistor, a middle coat which is a component of a cover coat has extensions or enclaves formed at portions on a surface of main upper electrodes of terminal electrodes. Auxiliary upper electrodes of terminal electrodes are formed extending over both the surface of extensions or enclaves of middle coat and the surface of main upper electrodes. Therefore, the step between the surface of terminal electrodes at opposing ends of resistive film and the surface of cover coat for the resistive film can be reduced or eliminated with low cost.
