ABSTRACT:
A thermistor chip is made by first forming first metal layers with a three-layer structure at both end parts of a thermistor block and then forming second metal layers with a three-layer structure on the first metal layers so as to have edge parts that are formed directly in contact with a surface area of the thermistor block and will reduce its normal temperature resistance value. The first and second metal layers are each of a three-layer structure with a lower layer made of a metal with resistance against soldering heat, a middle layer made of a metal with both wettability to solder and resistance against soldering heat, and an upper layer made of a metal having wettability to solder.
