Abstract:
A chip resistor includes an upper electrode provided on a substrate, a resistor element connected to the upper electrode, and a side electrode connected to the upper electrode. The side electrode, arranged on a side surface of the substrate, has two portions overlapping with the obverse surface and reverse surface of the substrate, respectively. An intermediate electrode covers the side electrode, and an external electrode covers the intermediate electrode. A first protective layer is disposed between the upper electrode and the intermediate electrode, and held in contact with the upper electrode and the side electrode. The first protective layer is more resistant to sulfurization than the upper electrode. A second protective layer is disposed between the first protective layer and intermediate electrode, and held in contact with the first protective layer, side electrode and intermediate electrode.

Claim (Index 37):
The chip resistor according to  claim 34 , wherein the first upper electrode includes a second portion that does not overlap the resistor element in plan view, and\n the first portion of the first upper electrode is greater in thickness than the second portion of the first upper electrode.
