A chip resistor (A1) comprises a first insulation layer (2A) covering the
regions between a plurality of electrodes (3) on a rear surface (10a) of
a resistor (1), and a second insulation layer covering a pair of side
faces of the resistor (1). Inadvertent adhesion of solder to an improper
part of the resistor (1) can thereby be eliminated. A solder layer (4) is
preferably formed on a pair of end faces (10d) of the resistor (1). In so
doing, a solder fillet can be formed appropriately.
