A stand-off mounting apparatus (10/50/80) includes an insulative carrier (12/52/82) for off-board mounting of leaded or surface-mount components (18, 20/58-62/92-96), particularly large temperature-sensitive discrete components such as capacitors. The carrier (12/52/82) has a component-mounting surface that is elevated relative to the circuit board (14), and is positioned with respect to the circuit board (14) such that the circuit board area under the mounting surface of the carrier (12/52/82) is available for the placement of smaller non-temperature-sensitive components. The off-board components (18, 20/58-62/92-96) are mounted on the component-mounting surface of the carrier (12/52/82), and the carrier (82) may include support features (102) for providing additional mechanical support for the components (92-96). Electrical leads (16/56/88) for electrically coupling the elevated components (18, 20/58-62/92-96) to the circuit board (14) may be insert-molded in the carrier (12/52), or may be inserted into plated through-holes (110) in the carrier (82).
