1. A chip resistor comprising:
a rectangular parallelepiped insulating substrate;
a first electrode and a second electrode that are oppositely disposed on the insulating substrate with a predetermined interval therebetween; and
a resistor that bridges the first electrode and the second electrode, the resistor having:
a first region connected to the first electrode and extending in a meandering shape;
a second region connected to the second electrode;
a linking portion positioned between the first region and the second region;
a first trimming groove for rough adjustment, the first trimming groove being disposed in the first region to lengthen an electric current path of the resistor;
a second trimming groove for fine adjustment, the second trimming groove being an L-cut shaped slit, including a straight portion and a turn portion, disposed in the second region;
a connecting portion in the second region located at a diagonal position of the linking portion and overlapping the second electrode; and
a substantially triangular space with the connecting portion as an apex disposed between the second region and the second electrode,
wherein a distance between the first electrode and the second electrode is an X-direction and a direction perpendicular to the X-direction is a Y-direction, the straight portion extends in the Y-direction from, as a start point, a side located on an extension line of the linking portion, and the turn portion extends in the X-direction from a distal end of the straight portion toward the space, and
a distal end of the straight portion does not go beyond an imaginary line connecting a shortest distance between the linking portion and the connecting portion.
