Abstract A metal film resistor adapted to be combined with like resistors to form a resistor network. The film is deposited on a dielectric as a nickel-chrome alloy being fused thereto as by means of a glass medium. Leads are connected to the back or front sides of the resistor by means of silverized terminals which are fused to the dielectric on two sides and the intervening edge of its dielectric thereby affording such option and allowing the film to be deposited over the entire surface of its front side when the leads are connected on the back side. The resistance path is formed in the film between slots cut through both the deposited film and the dielectric whereby the resistance of the film may be adjusted extremely accurately to the desired ohmage.
