A chip thermistor includes a thermistor element body and a pair of outer electrodes. The thermistor element body has a pair of end faces opposing each other and a main face connecting the end faces to each other. The pair of outer electrodes are arranged on the pair of end faces, respectively. The pair of outer electrodes have a width in a direction intersecting the opposing direction of the pair of end faces made narrower with distance from the thermistor element body.
