Abstract
Abstract Electronic components and a conductor for connecting the electronic components are placed in the component positioning holes and the conductor positioning recess which are formed in a plate-shaped jig. The jig with the components and the conductor is placed over a mounting board, and the assembly of these elements is heated in a suitable furnace so that the electronic components are connected to the mounting board and the conductor simultaneously, thereby to reduce the number of steps of manufacturing the hybrid integrated circuit assembly.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
294 words
A method of manufacturing a hybrid integrated circuit assembly wherein a plurality of electronic components are mounted on an electrically conductive mounting board and a connecting conductor means is disposed on the electronic components to electrically connect the electronic components to each other, comprising the steps of: (a) interposing layers of solder between said mounting board and first electrodes respectively provided on first surfaces of said electronic components to be connected to said mounting board, and between second electrodes respectively provided on second surfaces of said electronic components opposite to said first surfaces thereof and said connecting conductor means for connecting said second electrodes to each other, said mounting board comprising at least two relatively thin conductive and solderable plates and a coupling means for mechanically connecting said plates to each other; (b) placing said electronic components between said mounting board and a jig plate for positioning said electronic components with respect to said mounting board and for positioning said connecting conductor means with respect to said electronic components, and placing said connecting conductor means between said electronic components and said jig plate; (c) holding said electronic components and said connecting conductor means between said mounting board and said jig plate to form a semi-assembly of said mounting board, electronic components and connecting conductor means; (d) heating said semi-assembly to melt said layers of solder to simultaneously form the electrical and mechanical connection of said first electrodes to said mounting board and the electrical and mechanical connection of said second electrodes to said connecting conductor means, to thereby form said hybrid integrated circuit assembly; (e) removing said jig plate from said hybrid integrated circuit assembly; and (f) cutting said coupling means to electrically and mechanically separate said mounting board into at least two sections.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
136 words
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein said jig plate is provided with holes for positioning said electronic components with respect to said mounting board, a recess for positioning said connecting conductor means with respect to said second electrodes of said electronic components, a means for engaging said jig plate with said mounting board, and cuts for inserting said coupling means therein; said steps of placing said electronic components between said mounting board and said jig plate and placing said connecting conductor means between said electronic components and said jig plate are simultaneously accomplished through said holes, recess and cuts; and said step of holding said electronic components and said connecting conductor means between said mounting board and said jig plate is accomplished through said means for engaging said jig plate with said mounting board.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
49 words
