RELAY CONNECTOR FOR AN ELECTRONIC COMPONENT AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a relay connector comprising a three-dimensional base body consisting of insulating material, the upper side of said body having a bearing surface for the component in addition to internal contacts for electrically connecting to subassembly connections, and the underside having studs formed from insulating material for forming external contacts. The internal contacts are connected to the external contacts on the underside by means of printed conductors and plated holes. Said plated holes are created by vias in a plated hole region, preferably by means of laser drilling, whereby the wall thickness of the base body in the plated hole region is reduced by a recess. The invention enables the vias and the entire relay connector to be produced rapidly and cost-effectively by means of laser machining.
