These tests were deemed necessary, as previous ones [1], carried out with Ag terminations only, were deemed not conclusive and reliable enough. The resulting resistors were electrically characterised, and the reliability of the different samples was analysed. Besides, the degree of deformation and morphology of the samples was qualitatively evaluated.couches épaissesthick-film technologycapteur de températuretemperature sensorrésistance en couche épaissethick-film resistorTFRfiabilitéreliabilitycompatibilité des matériauxmaterials compatibilityqualificationtestLTCCcéramique cocuite à basse températurelow-temperature cofired ceramiccocuissoncofiringtext::report
