A chip resistor includes a substantially rectangular substrate of an insulating material having opposed substantially flat top and bottom surfaces and edges extending between the top and bottom surfaces. A layer of a resistance material is on the top surface of the substrate. Separate termination layers of a conductive material are on the top surface or the substrate and contact the resistance layer at opposite ends thereof. Each of the termination layers extends across an edge of the substrate and over a portion of the bottom surface of the substrate. The total area of the portions of the termination layers on the bottom surface of the substrate is greater than the total area of the portions of the termination layers on the top surface of the substrate so that the spacing between the ends of the portions of the termination layers on the bottom surface of the substrate is smaller than the spacing between the ends of the portions of the termination layers on the top surface of the substrate.
