ABSTRACT:
A precision resistor has a thin resistive foil cemented to a much thicker rigid substrate. The foil has formed therein a pattern defining the resistive path between terminal pads. Copper leads can be spot-welded directly to these pads without damage to the junction. To that end, apertures are provided through the terminal pads, through which cement softened by the spot-welding heat can locally expand and gas evolved under pressure can escape, all without adversely affecting the junction and without substantial lifting of the terminal pads from the substrate.
