A chip fuse includes a plurality of parallel fusible link layers disposed between a corresponding plurality of insulating glass layers deposited on a substrate and laminated together. The fusible link layers are interconnected between the glass layers without the need for vias. A first of the plurality of fusible link layers extends beyond a cover disposed over the chip fuse and one of the glass layers to form a first electrical terminal connection. Another of the plurality of the fusible link layers also extends beyond the cover and another of the glass layers to form a second electrical terminal connection.
