Abstract

See full text

In one example an electronic device includes a first resistor and a second resistor. The first resistor includes a first resistive layer located over a substrate, the first resistive layer having a first sheet resistance. The second resistor includes a first portion of a second resistive layer located over the substrate, the second resistive layer having a second sheet resistance different from the first sheet resistance. The first resistive layer is located between the substrate and a second noncontiguous portion of the second resistive layer.
