FORMING ELECTRICAL/MECHANICAL CONNECTIONS

摘要

A method of making a connection to a surface of an electronic carrier, the method comprising the steps of: providing a mass of malleable material on the surface of the electronic carrier; connecting the mass to said surface; and extruding the mass into a bore of a tool in order to elongate the mass so as to create a pin, or pin-like, structure having an end to which a further connection may be made.
