Claim 17:
18. A method for producing a thermistor comprising a ceramic main body,
wherein the ceramic main body is produced in such a way that a green sheet stack is formed from a multiplicity of green sheets, is subsequently pressed and sintered, a layer suitable for producing an electrically insulating layer being applied to at least one of the green sheets before the forming of the green sheet stack and wherein the electrically insulating layer is arranged within the ceramic main body in such a way that a conducting cross-sectional area of an active volume region of the ceramic main body is reduced, and
wherein at least two outer contacts are applied to the ceramic main body, the electrically insulating layer being arranged such that the electrically insulating layer is perpendicular to a direction of flow of electrical current between one of the at least two outer contacts to another of the at least two outer contacts.
