Abstract:
An electronic component assembly includes an electrical component assembled to a base and mounted to a support. The component electrical leads protrude through holes, along a channel, and make contact with connectors on the base. The base is formed of a polymeric material and contains protrusions for mechanically supporting the electrical component. When the base is mounted to the support, the connectors complete the electrical connection between the electrical component and the support.

A three-dimensional, electronic components mounted wiring body comprises a flat wiring body, on which a plurality of electronic components is mounted, and which is preformed with bends to be configured into a three-dimensional structured flat wiring body which fits the shape of a base structure on which the flat wiring body is to be mounted. An electronic components mounting structure is provided by mounting the three-dimensional, electronic components mounted wiring body on the three-dimensional base structure which is assembled from base members and their joining members. Connectors having piercing members are used to electrically and mechanically connect the electronic components to the flat wiring body.
Abstract:
A lead-attached electrical element and a mounting board to which the lead-attached electrical element is mounted both contribute to a reduction in the size of the mounting board as well as facilitate rework. The lead-attached electrical element is constituted from an electrical element and two leads. Each lead includes a main portion which is bonded to a respective electrode face of the electrical element, and a bent portion which is inclined with respect to the main portion. The mounting board is constituted from a PC (printed circuit) board and the lead-attached electrical element. Two conductive lands are provided on a surface of the PC board. The lead-attached electrical element has been inserted into an aperture in the PC board, and bent portions of the leads attached to the electrical element are bonded to the conductive lands so that the electrical element is suspended in the aperture by the leads.

Abstract:
A pair of through holes are formed in a circuit board, and a silver paste filled up in the through holes connects lands formed on a front surface and a rear surface of the circuit board, respectively to each other. When the silver paste is solidified, the silver paste bulges curvedly from the front and rear surfaces of the circuit board and forms a bump. A surface of the bump is covered with an overcoat. An electronic component is brought into contact with the bump, thereby forming a degassing gap between the electronic component and the circuit board. A gas generated during soldering is discharged from the penetrating hole, into which the lead terminal is inserted, to an outside via the gap between the electronic component and the circuit board.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus provide for electrical coupling of electrical components to traces on a substrate such that impedance mismatches otherwise experienced in high frequency operation are avoided. Connecting elements having length, width, and thickness, are provided for terminals of a component to be connected to a trace. The connecting element is electrically coupled between the terminal and the trace, typically by soldering. The dimensions of the connecting element are chosen to reduce or eliminate the impedance mismatch which would result from a direct connection between the trace and component. Connecting elements are generally L-shaped, i.e., having first and second planar portions perpendicular with respect to each other, and having a curving portion that connects the first and second planar portions. In one embodiment, dimensions of at least a portion of the connecting element are such that its width increases as its distance from a ground plane within the substrate increases.
Abstract:
An arrangement which has a panel-like electrical/electronic module, such as a solar power module, and a connection unit which are electrically connected to one another. The module and the connection unit each have an essentially flat printed conductor structure with connecting sections. The printed conductor structures are situated in parallel planes. The connecting sections are rigid electrical conductor sections and are bent out from the planes of the printed conductor structures of the connection unit and the module. The connecting sections of the connection unit are situated corresponding to the arrangement of the connecting sections of the module so that for the connection unit connected to the module each connecting section of the module is electrically connected to a respective connecting section of the connection unit and these adjoin one another in one section situated in a different spatial position than that of the planes of the printed conductor structures.
