A chip resistor is capable of improving surge characteristic while finely adjusting a resistance value with high accuracy. A chip resistor includes a resistor which is print-formed such that a first meandering portion is consecutively connected to a second meandering portion across a rectangular adjustment portion. The adjustment portion is provided with a first trimming groove to lengthen a current path of the resistor, thereby improving the surge characteristic while coarsely adjusting a resistance value of the resistor to bring it close to a target resistance value. Furthermore, a second trimming groove is provided in an area of the second meandering portion where a current distribution is small, thereby finely adjusting the resistance value of the resistor to make it coincide with the target resistance value in accordance with a cutting amount of the second trimming groove.

A method of fabricating resistors in igniter is provided. The method includes punching an alloy material to obtain a plurality of alloy components. The alloy components are disposed on a substrate, and electrodes are disposed on the substrate. Resistors in igniter are obtained by disposing electrodes on the substrate such that two electrically connecting regions of each alloy component are physically contacting and electrically connecting to the electrodes, respectively. The resulting resistors in igniter have uniform size and stable shape hence showing great ignition performance.
