Electronic Component and Manufacturing the Same

摘要

The present invention is to provide an electronic component where positional accuracy for arranging members constituting a circuit element such as a resister element and the like is mitigated and corrosion of a terminal electrode caused by sulfur in the atmosphere is reduced. The four-chips connected resister device 1 as an electronic component comprises: an insulating substrate 2 including a front-surface 2 a, a back surface 2 b and a side surface 2 c connecting the front-surface 2 a with the back surface 2 b; a pair of terminal electrodes placed on the front and back surfaces 2 a and 2 b and the side surface 2 c; a resister element 5 including a resister member 4 connected to the pair of terminal electrodes, and a protective layer (a glass film 6 and an overcoating film 7 ) for protecting the resister member 4 : the auxiliary electrode 9 placed with covering the interface 8 between the overcoating film 7 and the terminal electrode 3 ; and a nickel-plated layer 10 and a solder-plated layer 11 placed on the surfaces of the terminal electrode 3 and the auxiliary electrode 9 . The interface 8 is placed at the end portion 2 c of the insulating substrate 2.
