Abstract A printed circuit board substrate is mounted with electric circuit components to form an electric circuit thereon. The printed circuit board is provided with a land without a piercing hole for electrical connection with an electrode of a chip-shaped leadless element, and a land with an aperture for the insertion of the lead wire of a component or element with a lead, and further a pilot pattern for leading melted solder in spite of the presence of evaporated solder flux gas or air during a solder dipping operation. The pilot pattern may comprise a conductive pattern connecting the land for the leadless element and the land for the element with lead. At least elimination of the solder resist layer on a portion of the conductive pattern to form the pilot pattern.
A printed circuit board for mounting circuit elements to form an electric circuit thereon, said circuit board comprising: a substrate, a land covering at least part of said substrate, a first land portion without piercing hole for connecting with an electrode of a leadless component; a second land portion with a piercing hole for connecting with the lead wire of an element with leads; and a solder resist pattern leaving an exposed third land portion connecting said similarly exposed first and second land portions for leading melted solder therebetween.
