A variable resistor comprising a substrate provided on the surface thereof with a resistor on which a sliding member is in slidable contact therewith. The substrate is formed of diallyl phthalic resin, and a carbon resistor formed with a predetermined shape is molded integrally on the surface of the resin substrate. The carbon resistor contains diallyl phthalic resin as a binder resin. Terminals and the carbon resistor molded on the resin substrate are electrically connected through conductive paste. A variable resistor with good physical characteristics is obtained that can be manufactured at low cost, with superior heat resistance, capable of mounting by flow soldering, and having a small rate of resistance value. In addition, since the resistor and the terminals are connected through the conductive paste, connecting strength thereof is not only brought about by physical pressure but reinforced by the adhesion of the conductive paste.
A variable resistor comprising a resin substrate provided on the surface thereof with a resistor on which a sliding member is in slidable contact therewith, wherein said resistor is a carbon resistor integrally molded with a predetermined shape on the surface of the resin substrate and comprising diallyl phthalic binder resin, said resin substrate is formed of diallyl phthalic resin, and terminals are molded on said resin substrate and said carbon resistor and are electrically connected through conductive paste.
