    Abstract: An electrical connector comprising a header with a plurality of terminal pins having means for retaining the header in position during soldering to a printed circuit board. Retention is accomplished by an offset formed as a crimp at the insertion end of at least one pair of terminals. The crimps exert opposite normal forces against one surface of their respective holes to retain the header during soldering.

    Abstract: A low profile opto-device panel assembly suitable for use in an input detection apparatus used as an input device in conjunction with a visual display is disclosed. Arrays of light emitting devices and light detecting devices are juxtaposed along the internal edge of a peripheral frame printed circuit board to reduce the overall height of the panel assembly. Alignment housings surrounding each of the arrays of opto-devices are attached to the printed circuit board and extend inwardly of the sides of the peripheral frame printed circuit board. The opto-devices disposed in the alignment housings along the internal edge of the printed circuit boards are mechanically and electrically interconnected to the printed circuit board by bent leads which extend along the upper surface of the printed circuit board and into conventional printed circuit board holes.

    Abstract: A thru-hole insertable terminal (10, 50, 60) includes an upper shank portion (12, 52, 66) preferably adapted for soldered securement to an end electrode (24) of a component (20), such as a capacitor. A lower shank portion (14, 54, 68) is dimensioned and adapted for minimal initial contact insertion into, and the temporary securement thereafter within, an oversized thru-hole (26, 58, 62) of a supporting substrate, such as a circuit board (28, 59, 64). At least one upwardly extending free-ended tab (32, 56, 72, 74) is formed in the lower terminal shank portion (14, 54, 68), and is oriented in the major plane thereof until after the insertion thereof within an associated substrate-formed thru-hole (26, 58, 62). Stop means (14b, 14c, 54b, 54c, 68b, 68c) also formed in the lower terminal shank portion is adapted to position the upper free end of the tab at an elevation preferably below the upper open end of a confining thru-hole. The tab (32, 56, 72, 74) is also dimensioned such that, when thusly positioned, the lower integral end thereof extends at least to the lower open end of the thru-hole. This results in the upper free end of the tab being pivoted against the sidewall of the confining thru-hole in response to a then downwardly protruding end region (14d, 54d, 68d) of the lower terminal shank portion being clinched against the underside of the supporting substrate (28, 59, 64). The thusly pivoted tab advantageously not only facilitates the temporary securement of the terminal within the associated thru-hole, but the establishment thereafter of a reliable, permanent soldered connection therebetween.

    Abstract: A method of soldering electrical lead strands (of a width at least 0.3 inch) to a printed electrical path is disclosed. The path is planted on an alumina ceramic substrate and a solder pad is attached to a portion of the path. A flat surface portion of each lead strand is forced into full interengagement with a pad, a CO.sub.2 defocused laser beam is directed onto the soldering assembly with the beam controlled to have a beam power of at least 100 watts, a beam spot diameter no less than the width of the lead strand and no greater than the width of the pad, and a beam on-time effective to exert a controlled thermal radius on the soldering assembly to reflow only a preselected portion of the pad and effect a solder joint between the pad and strand portion, the joint having a strength of at least 400 grams. The parameters of the beam power, beam spot diameter, and beam on-time are optimally correlated by the following equation: ##EQU1## where: C is the critical thermal radius, a is the Gaussian radius at 1/e.sup.2, ln is logarithm, Tm is the melting temperature of the solder minus the specimen temperature, P is the laser beam power in watts, A is the surface absorptivity of the solder at 10.6 microns, R is the terminal resistance per unit area of the system, tc is the critical time to bring the solder to the Tm temperature, c is the heat capacity of the system.

    Abstract: A printed circuit assembly is herein proposed which has a multiplicity of generally L-shaped external terminal elements each of which is connected at one end to a printed circuit on the printed base panel through a soldered joint and which is formed at the other with a plug portion which is to be inserted into a plug socket. The plug portion projects usually perpendicularly from the printed base panel and extends on the same side as the joints on the base panel. The joints on the base panel are therefore soldered in a single dip-soldering operation in which the plug portions of the external terminal elements are kept intact with the result that no changes in size and configuration are invited as a result of the dip-soldering operation. The external terminal elements are thus readily inserted into the plug socket and are prevented from being dislocated or deformed when the plug socket is connected to or disconnected from the group of the terminal elements. The assembly may further include retaining means for securely holding the terminal elements in position relative to the printed base panel.
