摘要： A calibration system adapted to calibrate a resistance of an electrical device having a lead wire comprises a resistance detector adapted to detect the resistance of the electrical device, a first container containing an etching solution adapted to etch the lead wire, and a heater configured to heat the electrical device. If a first resistance of the electrical device detected by the resistance detector at a first temperature is within a first predetermined range, the electrical device is heated with the heater to a second temperature higher than the first temperature. A second resistance of the electrical device is detected by the resistance detector at the second temperature. If the second resistance is beyond a second predetermined range, the lead wire is etched by the etching solution to adjust the resistance of the electrical device until the second resistance at the second temperature is within the second predetermined range.

摘要： A method for calibrating a resistance value comprises the steps of measuring a value of a reference capacitor, and adjusting a variable resistor based on the measured value of the reference capacitor. The method may more specifically comprise the steps of directing a constant current through the reference capacitor during a reference time interval; after the reference time interval, directing the constant current through the variable resistor; and varying the variable resistor value progressively by varying a control signal until a voltage of the variable resistor reaches a voltage of the reference capacitor.

摘要： A method and structure for controlling the surface properties in the dielectric layers in a thin film component can be provided for improving the trimming process of thin film element. A metal fill is configured with a uniform fill pattern beneath an array of thin film resistors, and can comprise a plurality of smaller features or peaks providing a finer fill pattern that improves the control of the topology of the dielectric layers. The fill pattern can be configured in various manners, such as fill patterns parallel to the thin film resistor, fill patterns perpendicular to the thin film resistor, or fill patterns comprising a checkerboard-like configuration. The method and device for controlling the dielectric layers can also provide for a reduction in the interferences that can be caused by reflecting back of the focused energy by comprising a dispersion arrangement configured to provide dispersive grading of the laser energy below the thin film resistor and thus reduce the interaction of reflected energy with the incident laser beam. The method also improves the contrast of the laser alignment targets with respect to their background.

摘要： A resistor structure (10) having a heating element (35) and a resistor (32), and a method of trimming the resistor (32). The heating element (35) is separated from the resistor (32) by a layer of dielectric material (19). The resistor (32) has a layer of resistive material (23) on an etch control layer (22). The resistor (32) is trimmed by providing current pulses (62) through the heating element (35). Heat generated by the current pulses flows to the resistor (32) and anneals or trims the resistor (32). A resistor trimming variable, e.g. a voltage across resistor contacts (30, 31), is monitored and the current pulses are modulated in accordance with the value of the resistor trimming variable (63). The trimming step is terminated when the desired resistance value of the resistor (32) is attained.

摘要： A trimming resistor element includes a high-resistance film of high resistivity formed on an insulation film on the main surface of a substrate, and a low-resistance region which is formed by selectively subjecting the high-resistance film to a predetermined process so as to lower the resistivity thereof. A resultant resistance of the low-resistance region and the high-resistance film can be adjusted by selectively cutting off part of the low-resistance region.

摘要： A thermo-sensitive resistor including an electrically insulating substrate, a thin-film heating resistor formed on the substrate and lead wires electrically connected to the thin-film heating resistor, wherein the resistance of the thin-film heating resistor is adjusted by increasing or decreasing a film thickness of a previously formed base thin-film heating resistor by means of an electroplating method or an electroless plating method, and thus the area for heating of the thermo-sensitive resistor can remain constant even if the resistance adjustment is performed.

摘要： The adjustment of the temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of a thick film resistor by laser annealing is disclosed. The thick film resistor is fired for a controlled time and temperature sufficient to burn off the organic material in the resistive paint, and to provide an initial adjustment of the (TCR), but prior to obtaining the desired (TCR) range. The resistor is then laser annealed to controllably adjust the (TCR) of the resistor within the desired (TCR) range. The fixture used to hold the substrate during laser annealing is preferably controllably heated to avoid thermal shock to the resistor during laser annealing. A microprocessor is preferably used to monitor the (TCR) during the laser annealing process. At least one of the laser scan speed, laser beam diameter, laser beam power, and number of annealing passes are used to controllably adjust the resistor (TCR) to within the desired (TCR) range.
