Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing an Electro Static Discharge (ESD) protection component comprising: producing slurry by mixing varistor particles of varistor material, a resin binder, a plasticizer, and a solvent; producing a varistor green sheet by coating a film with the slurry and by drying the slurry; forming first and second conductor layers, the first conductor layer being formed at least on one surface of the varistor green sheet; forming an adhesive layer with a resin as a principal component thereof on at least one side of a baked ceramic substrate; adhering the varistor green sheet onto the baked ceramic substrate via the adhesive layer to form a laminate comprising the baked ceramic substrate, the varistor green sheet and the first and second conductor layers; sintering the varistor green sheet to form a varistor layer; and forming terminal electrodes on both end surfaces of the varistor layer and the baked ceramic substrate to form the ESD protection component.
