A THIN FILM RESISTOR DEVICE AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURE THEREFOR

摘要

The present invention provides a thin film resistor and method of manufacture therefor. The thin film resistor comprises a resistive layer located on a first dielectric layer, first and second contact pads located on the resistive layer, and a second dielectric layer located over the resistive layer and the first and second contact pads. In an illustrative embodiment, the thin film resistor further includes a first interconnect that contacts the first contact pad and a second interconnect that contacts the second contact pad.
