THIN-FILM RESISTORS WITH FLEXIBLE TERMINAL PLACEMENT FOR AREA SAVING

An apparatus includes a dielectric layer; and a set of thin-film resistors arranged in a row extending in a first direction on the dielectric layer, wherein lengths of the set of thin-film resistors in a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction are substantially the same, the set of thin-film resistors includes a first subset of one or more thin-film resistors with respective terminals spaced apart by a first distance, and the set of thin-film resistors includes a second subset of one or more thin-film resistors with respective terminals spaced apart by a second distance, the first distance being different than the second distance. 一种装置包括电介质层；以及薄膜电阻器的集合，薄膜电阻器的集合在电介质层上布置成沿第一方向延伸的行，其中薄膜电阻器的集合在与第一方向基本正交的第二方向上的长度基本相同，其中薄膜电阻器的集合包括具有以第一距离被间隔开的相应端子的一个或多个薄膜电阻器的第一子集，并且其中薄膜电阻器的集合包括具有以第二距离被间隔开的相应端子的一个或多个薄膜电阻器的第二子集，第一距离不同于第二距离。
