Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a surface mount device to be mounted on a base member, including plural lead units, each of the plural lead units including, a lead including a body portion and a foot formed at an end of the lead; a solder portion formed at the foot of the lead to protrude toward the direction of the base member to have a summit portion, and a diffusion prevention portion provided on the lead for preventing a diffusion of a solder along the body portion of the lead.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a surface mount device to be mounted on a base member, the surface mount device including plural lead units each including a lead composed of a body portion and a foot formed at an end of the lead and a diffusion prevention portion for preventing a diffusion of a solder provided on the lead, comprising: introducing solder into plural concave portions provided in a front side of a pallet and aligned to correspond to the leads of the plural lead units; contacting or inserting each of the leads into the solder introduced in the respective concave portion while the solder is melted by heating to form a solder portion at the foot of the lead to protrude and have a summit portion extending away from the foot; removing the leads with the solder from the concave portion so that the summit portion of the solder portion is facing the base member to mount the surface mount device to the base member; and wherein a through hole that is open to a back side of the pallet, opposite the front side, is provided in the bottom of each of the concave portions.
