However, the formation of the resistor in the resistor (a) has the disadvantage that the productivity is reduced due to the use of vacuum technology. When attaching the metal resistance foil, there is a disadvantage that uniformity and productivity are reduced because the attaching step is a manual operation. Therefore, even in the screen printing method which is considered to be most productive at present, the resistance portion is simply formed using a generally used resistance paste such as a Pd-Ag-based paste or a Pd-Ag-RuO 2 -based paste. Only by forming, low resistance (for example, 100 m
It is extremely difficult to efficiently produce a good low-resistance chip resistor having a resistive film (Ω / □ or less) and provide it at low cost, and it is not possible to accurately detect a high overcurrent. Furthermore, in the conventional low-resistance chip resistor, only a glaze-based conductive paste is used to obtain a low resistance, and the TCR (resistance temperature coefficient, the same applies hereinafter) of the resistance portion is reduced (about 500 ppm / The fact is that almost no consideration has been given to this. Under these circumstances, manufacturers of small electronic devices can use it in the overcurrent protection circuit of small electronic devices.
There is a strong need for an inexpensive low-resistance chip resistor that can accurately detect overcurrent.

The upper resistive film formed on the Pd-Ag lower resistive film 12 is replaced with the Ni-Cu-P upper resistive film 13 formed by the electroless plating method. In addition to the upper resistive film of Ni alone formed by electrolytic plating, Ni-P, Ni-WP, Ni-
Other Ni-based upper-layer resistive films such as Cr-P, Ni-Re-P, etc. can also be adopted. In particular, in the case of the above-described electroless plating method, Pd is not used as a pretreatment without using an activating liquid (for example, a palladium chloride solution).
-A negative charge is charged on the Ag-based lower resistance film (electroplating method) to act as a trigger for the electroless plating reaction. Here, the reason that the negative charge is charged without using the activating liquid is that the activating liquid is generally a strong acid (pH 1 or less), which increases the TCR and weakens the resistance to overload. That is, there is a disadvantage that the function of the Pd-Ag-based lower resistance film as a resistance film is reduced, and this is to prevent this.
