Disclosed is a variable resistive device and manufacturing method, which's capable of preventing elements from being destroyed due to the over current and would not enlarge the size of the elements. Means for preventing elements from being destroyed due to the over current and from enlarging the size of the elements provided by the instant disclosure is as below. The variable resistive device (1) provided by one embodiment of the instant disclosure comprises: a lower electrode layer (3), an upper electrode layer (6), a first metal oxide layer (51), a second metal oxide layer (52), and a current limiting layer (4). The first metal oxide layer (51) having first resistance, is configured between the lower electrode layer (3) and the upper electrode layer (6). The second metal oxide layer (52) having a second resistance larger than the first resistance, is configured between the first metal oxide layer (51) and the upper electrode layer (6). The current limiting layer (4), having a third resistance larger than the first resistance and smaller than the second resistance, is configured between the lower electrode layer (3) and the first metal oxide layer (51).
