Abstract:
A surface mount electrical connector includes a terminal body having a first elongate member that cooperates with a housing to secure the terminal body to the connector housing. A second elongate member of the terminal body includes a curved portion having an aperture therethrough. The curved portion includes a convex surface that facilitates automated assembly operations, and the aperture helps to overcome surface tension in liquid solder, thereby promoting a secure electrical connection.
Abstract:
A circuit board connector (1) has a housing (10), male terminals (20) and fixing members (30). Each fixing member (30) is formed by bending a metal plate into an L-shape to define a mounting portion (31) to mount the fixing member (30) to the housing (10), and a bonding portion (32) to be soldered. The bonding portion (32) is formed with connecting pieces (33) by making U-shaped cuts through the bonding portion (32) and then bending areas enclosed by the cuts upward. A clearance (S) is defined between the bottom edge of the leading end of each connecting piece (33) and the corresponding through hole (34). The lower surfaces of the connecting pieces (33) and the inner surfaces of the through holes (34) can be soldered.
Abstract:
A surface-mounted electronic component has an outer lead extending from a package for connection to a circuit pattern on a printed circuit board by using a connecting member. The outer lead has a hole having an opening at least on a connecting member facing side in a portion of the outer lead for connecting the outer lead to the circuit pattern.
Abstract:
Lands formed on a flexible printed circuit board are electrically connected with lands formed on a rigid printed circuit board through solder. At this point, solder resist is formed between neighboring two lands on the rigid printed circuit board, and is terminated with an end portion that is interposed between the rigid printed circuit board and the flexible printed circuit board. Accordingly, even when surplus solder is extruded onto the rigid printed circuit board, the solder resist can prevent solder bridges from being formed between the lands.
Abstract:
A circuit component comprising a circuit board and a terminal for mounting the circuit board on a second circuit board. A length of the circuit board is 10 mm-80 mm, a difference in a coefficient of thermal expansion between the circuit board and the second circuit board is or 0.2null10null5/null C. greater. The terminal is made of an elastic material, and comprised of a first connection section, a second connection section and an elastic section disposed between the first and second connection sections. and the terminal separates the circuit board from the second circuit board by 0.3 mm-5 mm. In the circuit components of the present invention, deterioration in the conduction between the circuit board and the second circuit board due to heat cycles can be prevented. Thus, a circuit component having stable operating characteristics for a long period of time is obtained.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with a mount 2 secured on a circuit board 1 to support a diode chip 3 thereon. A plurality of legs 7, 12 formed in the mount 2 are in contact with an electrode 4 on the circuit board 1 to form at least a dent 14. The mount 2 also has an inclined surface 8 formed at the periphery which faces the electrode 4. Solder 9 is filled in the dent 14 between the legs 7, 12 and in the flaring area 13 between the circuit board 1 and the inclined surface 8 of the mount 2 to prevent exfoliation or detachment of the mount from the electrode 4.
Abstract:
A lead 20 protrudes from a main body 19a of a connector 18. A connector electrode 13 extends along a surface 10a of a printed circuit board 10. A solder paste 26, applied onto the connector electrode 13, is offset a predetermined distance inward from the edge of the printed circuit board 10. The lead 20 is shifted along the surface of connector electrode 13 inwardly from the edge of the printed circuit board 10 until a distal end 20a of the lead 20 is brought into contact with the solder paste 26. Then, the solder paste 26 is melted under the condition where the distal end 20a is brought into contact with the solder paste 26, thereby soldering the connector 18 on the printed circuit board 10.
