A fuse holder component includes a bottom plate fixed to a printed board, and first and second side plates whose main body portions individually extend from side edges of the bottom plate. The second side plate includes a suction portion extending through an extension portion from the main body portion and provided with a suction surface to which a suction nozzle of a mounter is accessible. A pair of fuse holder components, surface-mounted on the printed board by using the mounter, constitute a fuse holder that stably holds a glass-tube fuse.
Abstract:
A method of tinning one or more electrical terminals by hot solder dipping is disclosed herein. The process generally involves placing a solder resistant material in a through hole formed in an electrical terminal, and then dipping at least a portion of the terminal into a hot solder. The solder resistant material may include, for example, a titanium or stainless steel wire, and the solder may be a tin-lead solder such as Sn63.
Abstract:
A locating means assembly (100) includes a housing (1) and a plurality of terminals (2). The housing has a plurality of side walls (14) and defines a plurality of passageways (13) therein. A pair of ribs (12) protrude inwardly from lower portions of two side walls in each passageway and define a pair of grooves (11). Each terminal has a planar soldering portion (21), and a pair of fins (211) extending and bending upwardly from two lateral sides of the soldering portion, respectively. The terminal is received in the housing, the pair of fins elastically engaging in the two grooves, respectively. After the housing with the terminal is picked up and placed on a printed circuit board (PCB), the terminal is soldered to the PCB, and then the housing is removed.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for shielding electrical components mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference by reducing the dissipation of heat away from solder joints. In an embodiment of the invention a radio frequency (RF) shield for a printed circuit board comprises a shield for RF shielding a portion of the PCB having electronic components mounted thereon. The shield has a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion has a reduced cross sectional area, for reducing heat conduction between the first and the second portion when the first portion of the shield is inserted into a first plurality of holes in the PCB, for soldering the first portion of the shield to a copper foil of the PCB.
Abstract:
There is described a process for producing printed circuits comprising a laminar support, an electrically conductive track on the laminar support, and an auxiliary conductive element soldered to the conductive track. There is a provision to apply the auxiliary conductive element by means of an apparatus for applying SMD components.
Abstract:
A semiconductor package and method for fabricating the package are provided. The package includes a semiconductor die and a heat sink in thermal communication with the die. The heat sink includes one or more pad structures adapted to form bonded connections, and thermal paths to contacts on a substrate. The method includes forming multiple heat sinks on a frame similar to a lead frame, and etching or stamping the pad structures on the heat sink. The frame can then be attached to a leadframe containing encapsulated dice, and the assembly singulated to form separate packages. The packages can be used to form electronic assemblies such as circuit board assemblies and multi chip modules.
Abstract:
A method of producing a semiconductor device includes a device body producing step, electrically coupling leads and a semiconductor chip, and producing a device body by encapsulating the semiconductor chip by a resin package so that portions of the leads are exposed from the resin package, a honing step, carrying out a honing process using a polishing solution at least with respect to a resin flash adhered on the portions of the leads exposed from the resin package, an etching step, removing an unwanted stacked layer structure formed on the leads by carrying out an etching process after the honing step, and a plating step, carrying out a plating process with respect to the leads after the etching step to form a plated layer made of a soft bonding material. The honing step removes a portion of the unwanted stacked layer structure in addition to the resin flash.
