Abstract
A thin film resistor formed using thermal spraying techniques in the manufacturing process is provided. A thin film resistor and method of manufacturing a thin film resistor are disclosed including a thermally sprayed resistive element. An alloy bond layer may be applied to a substrate and a thermally sprayed resistive layer is applied to the alloy bond layer by a thermal spraying process to form a thermally sprayed resistive element. The alloy bond layer and the thermally sprayed resistive layer may have the same chemical composition.
