Thermistor chips are produced by preparing ceramic green sheets, applying an inorganic material such as a glass paste on these green sheets in areas including lines along which they are to be later cut, stacking a plurality of these green sheets one on top of another to obtain a stacked body, obtaining chips by cutting this stacked body along those pre-specified lines and subjecting these chips to a firing process to obtain sintered bodies, and forming outer electrodes on mutually opposite end surfaces of these sintered bodies. A thermistor chip thus produced has a thermistor element having outer electrodes on its mutually opposite end surfaces, and diffused layers of an inorganic material having a higher specific resistance than material of the thermistor element. These diffused layers are formed proximally to externally exposed surfaces of the thermistor element.
