Claim:
1. A method for manufacturing a micro-resistance structure with high bending strength, comprising steps: providing a multi-layer metallic substrate including an alloy layer, a resin layer disposed on an upper surface of said alloy layer, and a metal layer disposed on said resin layer; forming an array of a patterned electrode layer on a lower surface of said alloy layer; removing a portion of said multi-layer metallic substrate to form a plurality of micro-resistance units, which are partially separated, wherein in each said micro-resistance unit, said patterned electrode layer is defined to be a first electrode region and a second electrode region, which are separated from each other, and said metal layer further includes a first metal region and a second metal region; forming an upper encapsulant layer to cover a portion of said first metal region and a portion of said second metal region, forming a lower encapsulant layer to cover a portion of said alloy layer, wherein at least one of said upper encapsulant layer and said lower encapsulant layer is substantially made of a flexible resin ink; undertaking a stamping process to form a plurality of micro-resistance structures, which are separated from each other; and undertaking an electroplating process to form in said micro-resistance structure two external electrodes, which are electrically insulated from each other.
