To produce the end face electrode efficiently in the dicing process by forming a stripe pattern of protective layer continuously between adjacent elements in Y direction and forming thin film patterns of end face electrode on the opposite sides while separating from each other.
An epoxy based thermosetting resin is screen printed and thermally set to form a pattern of protective layer, i.e., an insulating heat resistant resin layer, on a silicon oxide layer. A substrate 31 is set on an adhesive tape and cut sequentially into sticks. A plurality of sticks 32 are then arranged and stacked in Z direction. The stack 33 is mounted on a rotary drum in order to perform sputtering from the positive direction of X. Upon finishing the sputtering, a stripe pattern of protective layer continuous between adjacent elements in Y direction is formed on the stack 33 and thin film patterns 23 of end face electrode are formed on the opposite sides while being separated from each other. This method can produce a thermistor element having end face electrodes efficiently.
