(EN) [Problem] To provide a chip resistor and a method for manufacturing thereof, the chip resistor keeping easily soldering strength even if mounted in a horizontal position, and never projects from a holding recess of a positioning jig in a mounting process, and further does not hinder miniaturization thereof from being promoted, while keeping a good appearance thereof.
[Means of Solution] In manufacturing a chip resistor 10, front-face electrodes 12 and resisters 13 are formed on the front face 20a of a large size substrate 20, and rear-face electrodes 16 are formed on the rear face 20b of the large size substrate 20. When the rear-face electrodes are formed, the rear-face electrodes 16 are extended to inclined faces of V-shaped grooves of second dividing grooves 22 on the rear face 20b and these extended parts are made to be side-face electrodes 16a. Then, the large size substrate 20 is divided along first dividing grooves 21 into strip substrates, and, after end-face electrodes 17 are formed on divided faces thereof by sputtering, the strip substrates 24 are divided along the second dividing grooves 22 and subjected to a plating process to provide an approximately square-prism shaped chip resistor 10 with electrodes exposed on each side face thereof.
