Electrical resistors and resistor networks are provided on an insulative substrate with designated conductive terminations by direct and continuous writing of resistive lines in fine-line patterns between and over each two of neighboring terminations from heterogeneous resistive thick film compositions. The resistive lines of line width w and total length l between conductive terminations can be directly written by suitable writing apparatus to have a high aspect ratio n=l/w, thereby providing resistors and resistor networks of high resistance values on an overall substrate area significantly smaller than required for conventional thick film resistors of comparable resistance value and comparable operational characteristics.
