US Patent 7154373 Surface mounting chip network component

A surface mounting chip network component in which a network having three or more odd number of terminals are formed on the surface of an insulating substrate and Tomb Stone Phenomenon is suppressed. Even number of network circuits are formed on the surface of the insulating substrate (2) and the same number of terminals (1) are arranged, respectively, on the opposite sides of the insulating substrate (2). Alternatively, even number of network circuits are formed on the surface of the insulating substrate (2) and the terminals (1) are arranged on the side edges of the insulating substrate (2) point-symmetrically with respect to the center of the surface of the insulating substrate (2).
