Abstract:
The invention stabilizes a quality of a laser welding in a terminal in which an outer appearance characteristic is not stabilized, and achieves an improvement of a positioning characteristic at a time of executing the laser welding without generating a cost increase. A hole is formed in a terminal of an integrated circuit sealed by a plastic molding. At a time of welding, a welding operation position is positioned by recognizing the hole in accordance with an image recognition, and a laser welding is executed by irradiating a laser beam to a portion of a terminal and a bus bar positioned near an edge portion of the hole. The hole is preferably formed in a circular shape or a similar shape thereto.
Abstract:
In a two-pole SMT miniature housing in leadframe technique for semiconductor components, a semiconductor chip is mounted on one leadframe part and is contacted to a further leadframe part. The further leadframe part is conducted out of the housing in which the chip is encapsulated as a solder terminal. No trimming or shaping process is required and the housing is tight and is capable of further miniaturization. The solder terminals as punched parts of the leadframe are conducted projecting laterally from the housing sidewalls residing opposite one another at least up to the housing floor which forms the components' mounting surface. The chip mounting surface and the components' mounting surface form a right angle with one another.
Abstract:
A lead-free solder paste printing method is practiced with use of a metal mask of the invention by placing the metal mask 1 on a circuit board 2 having an electrode 21 formed in a predetermined pattern to join an end portion of a lead member 6, and moving a printing squeegee along the upper surface of the metal mask 1 to thereby print a lead-free solder paste on the surface of the electrode 21 on the circuit board 2. The method produces on the electrode 21 of the circuit board 2 two lead-free solder paste patterns 30a, 30a each circular or elliptical in shape and arranged in a direction in which the lead member 6 is to extend from the electrode.
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 leaded semiconductor device package for nonsoldering assembling is disclosed. In the package of the invention, both leads of a semiconductor device package are flattened, cut and bent by automatic machines on the bais of conventional packaging process. Unlike a conventional semiconductor device package which is electrically connected to a circuit by soldering, the flattened and bent parts of both leads of the semiconductor device package can be electrically connected to a circuit by elastically contacting and directly assembling without soldering.
Abstract:
A micromodule is used as a surface-mounted package on a substrate of interconnections. In one embodiment of the invention, barriers to the expansion of solder are formed between contact zones of the micromodule and corresponding contact pads of the substrate. A mechanical stopping device is planned to keep the thickness of the interface of solder. In another embodiment of the invention, contact zones are extended by tongues. A cambering operation enables the formation of the surface-mounting pins.

Abstract:
A surface mount electrical connector having lead portions of first and second series of terminals extending in alternating closely spaced parallel relation across a circuit board from a rear face of a connector housing. The lead portions have transverse soldering portions on respective free ends and the lead porions of the second series are longer than those of the first series and the lead portion of each series are of equal length so that the soldering portions of the first and second series are located in first and second rows with the first row being closer to the housing than the second row. The soldering potions of the first row have respective upstanding heater engaging portions so that the heater can be brought into engagement therewith without interfering with adjacent lead portions or with soldering portions of the other row.
Abstract:
A surface-mount integrated circuit converter board assembly having a pin grid array arranged enables a conventional surface-mount lead device to be mounted for subsequent attachment to a printed circuit board. The converter board assembly includes an array of spaced apart pins, arranged in rows and columns for mounting, and a plurality of spaced apart pin pads connected thereto. The pin pads are sufficiently spaced apart to avoid interference. A set of surface-mount lead pads is part of the converter board and is interconnected to the array of pins by a plurality of lead traces. The method of making the converter board with a surface-mount integrated circuit device includes forming or reforming the leads of the device to align with the surface-mount pads.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a surface-mounted component's contact having an inverted "T"-shaped soldering portion. The contact is to be mounted to the surface of a printed circuit board, and is to be electrically connected to a conductor on the printed circuit board by soldering its soldering portion to the conductor. The soldering portion comprises a flat foot and a leg, which is integrally connected to and rising from the midportion of said foot. The relatively large foot has an effect of causing substantial reduction of the load per unit of solder upon application of an undesired force to the terminal, and of increasing the resistivity of the solder against removal from the conductor of the printed circuit board.
