AI Technical Summary
Existing laser repair methods for thick-film resistors are insufficient to meet customers' ever-increasing demands for voltage withstand capability. Conventional methods are prone to generating micro-cracks, which affect the resistor's high-voltage withstand performance.
Two L-shaped repair grooves are set on the same side of the resistor body. The two repair grooves are set opposite each other and have different sizes. The first groove is parallel to the length direction of the resistor body and the second groove is parallel to the width direction of the resistor body. This ensures that there is a horizontal and vertical spacing between the two grooves, shortens the length and width of the repair grooves to increase the current flow area, and improves the accuracy through secondary repair.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a resistor, and more particularly to a high voltage resistant thick film resistor. Background Technology
[0002] To ensure the resistance value meets a preset target value, the resistor undergoes a repair process. Common laser repair methods for thick-film resistors mainly include the following four types: L-knife (such as...) Figure 1a As shown), double blades (as shown) Figure 1b As shown), single blade + L-blade (as shown) Figure 1c As shown), Z-knife (as shown) Figure 1d As shown in the diagram, the L-blade initially performs a single cut, followed by a second cut along the length of the resistor. This method is faster and suitable for medium resistance with a precision of 1% to 5%. The double-blade method offers better accuracy (SD) than the single-blade + L-blade method, but is slower and suitable for high and low resistance with a precision of 1%. The single-blade + L-blade method is slower but offers high precision and good SD after trimming. The Z-blade method is suitable for resistors with large resistance variations, but is slower and suitable for Power type and special type resistors. All four methods include the resistor element 103 and the trimming groove 104. The process is mature and can meet the requirements of different resistance ranges, precision, and power. During laser cutting, the laser irradiates the surface of the resistor, instantly heating the material and causing it to rapidly vaporize, melt, or reach its ignition point. During this process, due to the restriction of the molten material by the unheated parts and the rearrangement of molecules after the material cools, microcracks will appear at the edge of the laser cutting edge. Furthermore, the laser operation time is the longest at the end of the laser cutting edge, absorbing the most energy and generating the most microcracks. When current passes through the concentrated area of microcracks, it generates a large amount of heat. If the current is too high, it can even burn out the resistor and cause an open circuit. The effect of microcracks on resistance varies depending on the type of cutting blade. Figure 2a As shown, the microcracks 101 produced by the "I"-shaped blade (similar to double blades and Z-blades) are perpendicular to the current flow direction 102, cutting into the area with the smallest current flow area, such as... Figure 2b As shown, the microcracks 101 generated by the "L"-shaped cutter are parallel to the current flow direction 102, and the current flow density is extremely low in some crack areas. Therefore, the "L"-shaped cutter is generally more conducive to the high voltage withstand performance of resistors. However, as customers' requirements for the voltage withstand capability of thick film resistors become increasingly stringent, conventional laser repair methods are insufficient. Therefore, improving the high voltage withstand capability of resistors is a direction that those skilled in the art need to explore. Summary of the Invention

[0035] The utility model discloses a resistance body 1 length direction's both ends are equipped with the front electrode 4 respectively, and two the resistance slot is arranged between two side front electrode 4 respectively.
[0036] When the resistance slot is processed, one of the resistance slots is processed first, and then the other resistance slot is processed. When the resistance slot is processed, the first slot is quickly processed from the side of the resistance body in the width direction, and then the second slot is processed from the first end extending into the resistance body. In this way, the length of the first slot and the second slot of the two resistance slots is less than the length of the single L-shaped resistance slot of the prior art. This can shorten the length and width of the resistance slot, thereby increasing the current flow area and effectively increasing the yield and high pressure resistance. Furthermore, the cutting range of the first knife (the first resistance slot, which is the second resistance slot in this embodiment) is -10% of the resistance value, and the second knife (the second resistance slot, which is the first resistance slot in this embodiment) cuts to the resistance value. The second knife serves the purpose of fine trimming, further increasing the yield and improving the high pressure resistance. In addition, the L-shaped resistance slot has high trimming efficiency. In this embodiment, the second resistance slot is processed first, and then the first resistance slot is processed, i.e. the larger size resistance slot is processed first for rough trimming, and then the smaller size resistance slot is processed for fine trimming, thereby improving the trimming effect.
[0037] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the first slot 2 is parallel to the side of the resistance body 1 in the length direction, the second slot 3 is parallel to the side of the resistance body 1 in the width direction, and the first slot 2 is perpendicular to the second slot 3.
[0038] For example, the current flow direction is from left to right or from right to left, and the two front electrodes are arranged at the left and right ends of the resistance body. The first slot is parallel to the left and right sides of the resistance body, and the second slot is parallel to the front and back sides of the resistance body.
[0039] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the two resistance slots are a first resistance slot 5 and a second resistance slot 6, and the first resistance slot 5 and the second resistance slot 6 have a transverse spacing.
[0040] The first resistance slot and the second resistance slot have a transverse spacing, which can prevent the two resistance slots from intersecting. After one resistance slot is cut, the other resistance slot can be cut smoothly.
[0041] Referring to Figure 3As shown, the length of the first slot 2 of the first trimming groove 5 is less than the length of the first slot 2 of the second trimming groove 6, and the length of the second slot 3 of the first trimming groove 5 is less than the length of the second slot 3 of the second trimming groove 6.
[0042] The first trimming groove 5 is arranged on the left side of the second trimming groove 6, the front ends of the first slot 2 of the first trimming groove 5 and the first slot 2 of the second trimming groove 6 are communicated with the front end surface of the resistor body 1, the left end of the second slot 3 of the first trimming groove 5 is connected with the rear end of the first slot 2 of the first trimming groove 5, and the right end of the second slot 3 of the second trimming groove 6 is connected with the rear end of the first slot 2 of the second trimming groove 6.
[0043] The right end of the second slot of the first trimming groove and the left end of the second slot of the second trimming groove have a transverse spacing. The right end of the second slot of the first trimming groove is arranged on the left front side of the second slot of the second trimming groove.
[0044] The first slot of the first trimming groove and the first slot of the second trimming groove have a transverse spacing, and the second slot of the first trimming groove and the second slot of the second trimming groove have a vertical spacing.
[0045] In the embodiment, the lengths of the first slot and the second slot of the two trimming grooves are not the same, and the lengths of the first slot and the second slot of the first trimming groove are respectively less than the lengths of the first slot and the second slot of the second trimming groove, and the two trimming grooves also have a transverse spacing, the right end of the second slot of the first trimming groove and the left end of the second slot of the second trimming groove have a transverse spacing, so that the ends of the two trimming grooves do not intersect (the end of the first trimming groove is the right end of its second slot, and the end of the second trimming groove is the left end of its second slot), the two ends do not intersect, that is, the ends of the double knives (two trimming grooves) with the maximum laser cutting range do not have an intersection, which can prevent the mutual interference of the two trimming grooves from affecting the normal passage of the current, effectively increase the current flow area, and improve the high-voltage resistance of the resistor body. After the first trimming groove is cut, the normal cutting of the second trimming groove is not affected, effectively ensuring the product qualification rate and the good product rate.
[0046] Referring to Figure 3 As shown, the length of the first slot of the first trimming groove is less than 1 / 4 of the width of the resistor body, and the length of the first slot of the second trimming groove is less than 1 / 3 of the width of the resistor body.
[0047] The length of the second slot of the first trimming groove is less than 1 / 8 of the length of the resistor body, and the length of the second slot of the second trimming groove is less than 1 / 4 of the length of the resistor body.
[0048] The transverse spacing value between the first slot of the first trimming resistor groove and the first slot of the second trimming resistor groove is 1 / 2-2 / 3 of the length of the resistor body; the transverse spacing value between the right end of the second slot of the first trimming resistor groove and the left end of the second slot of the second trimming resistor groove is 1 / 8-1 / 4 of the length of the resistor body; and the vertical spacing value between the second slot of the first trimming resistor groove and the second slot of the second trimming resistor groove is 1 / 10-1 / 8 of the width of the resistor body.
[0049] In the prior art, the length of the L-shaped trimming resistor groove in the length direction is about 1 / 2 of the length of the resistor body, and the length in the width direction is about 1 / 2 of the width of the resistor. In this way, when the current passes through the L-shaped trimming resistor groove, the current flow area is affected due to the wide width and long length. Therefore, in the present embodiment, two trimming resistor grooves with small length and width are used, and the combination of the two L-shaped trimming resistor grooves shortens the length of the trimming resistor groove in the trimming process, effectively increases the current flow area, and sets two trimming resistor grooves, that is, performs secondary trimming, which also plays a role in fine trimming of the resistance value, effectively increasing the yield and pass rate. In addition, the length and width of the two trimming resistor grooves are set with a spacing, so that after the processing of one trimming resistor groove, the laser processing of the other trimming resistor groove is not affected. Moreover, the length and width of one trimming resistor groove are smaller than those of the other trimming resistor groove, which can prevent the intersection of the two lasers in the laser cutting trimming process, and ensure that the first laser is cut out smoothly.
[0050] Moreover, the two trimming resistor grooves are arranged on the same side of the resistor body in the width direction, and the two trimming resistor grooves occupy the width of the resistor body in the width direction, which has the smallest effect on the current flow area. In addition, only one trimming device needs to be arranged on one side during production, and the space occupation of the assembly line is smaller, and the cost is lower.
[0051] In the short time load (STOL) test, the high-voltage resistance performance of the Z knife and the double L knife (two L-shaped trimming resistor grooves arranged on the same side) is compared, and the test is carried out under the condition of the maximum load voltage, as shown in the following table:
[0052]
[0053]
[0054] As shown in the above table, the resistance value change rate of the double L knife cutting is much smaller than that of the Z knife cutting, and the high-voltage resistance performance is better.
[0055] Referring to Figure 4 Fig. 7 shows a structure schematic view of the micro cracks 7 and the current flow 8 after the double L knife cutting arranged on one side;
[0056] Referring to Figure 5 Fig. 8 shows a structure schematic view of the micro cracks 7 and the current flow 8 after the double L knife cutting arranged on one side; Figure 5As a comparative example, a structural diagram of a micro crack at a current flow crossing position after a double L knife cut is provided.
[0057] From Figure 4 , Figure 5 It can be seen that the current density at the knife receiving position of the unilateral double L knife cut is lower, and the intersection position of the micro crack and the current flow crossing position is less, which is better than the double L knife cut structure on both sides in terms of electrical performance.
