Abstract
Abstract A multiple-terminal unit comprises a first and a second group of teeth extending from one edge of a band-shaped. The teeth in the first group and the second group are bent at different positions so that their stem parts are staggered. In another aspect of the invention, the part at which a terminal and wiring pattern on a substrate a fixed by resin, preferably thixotropic resin.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
357 words
A process of fabricating an hybrid IC device provided with a multiple of terminals on a substrate, comprising the steps of: providing a multiple-terminal unit comprising: a band-shaped connecting part; a first and a second group of teeth extending from one edge of the connecting part; said first group consisting of teeth provided at alternate positions and said second group consisting of teeth provided at intervening positions; each tooth in said first group having a stem part having one end continuous with the connecting part and extending in the major plane of the connecting part, a lateral part having one end continuous with the other end of the stem part, and extending at an angle with the stem part, and an end part having one end continuous with the lateral part and extending in parallel with the stem part; each tooth in said second group having a lateral part having one end continuous with the connecting part and extending at an angle with the connecting part, a stem part having one end continuous with the other end of the lateral part and extending in parallel with the connecting part, and an end part having one end continuous with the stem part and extending in the same plane as the stem part; said end parts of said teeth in said first group and said second group being aligned with each other; said stem parts of said teeth in said first group being aligned with each other; said stem parts of said teeth in said second group being aligned with each other; said stem parts of said teeth in said first group being spaced relative to said stem parts of said teeth in said second group in a direction transverse to the major plane of the connecting part and also in the direction of the rows of the teeth of said first and second groups; providing a substrate with soldering paste printed in pad regions on the substrate; soldering the end parts of said teeth of said multiple-terminal unit with the printed soldering paste in the pad regions on the substrate; removing the connecting part of the multiple-terminal unit.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein said step of removing the connecting part comprises cutting the teeth of the multiple-terminal units at said stem parts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein a pair of the multiple-terminal units are provided and the connecting parts of the pair of multiple-terminal units made to confront each other, and clamped by use of a jig.
