An electronic parts loaded module comprises a circuit board having electronic parts connected thereto via a plurality of projecting electrodes, in which two or more of the plurality of projecting electrodes for connecting the electronic parts have a narrowed portion between one end adjacent to the boundary for connection with the electronic parts and the other end adjacent to the boundary for connection with the board, the narrowed portion having a cross-section which has different dimensions in crossing directions, or a minor axis and a major axis different in length from each other. The projecting electrodes are disposed in a manner as the larger dimension or the major axis being aligned along the periphery or the side of the electronic parts, or as surrounding the central area of the surface, on which the electronic parts are loaded. The module can be used in IC cards and liquid crystal display apparatuses and the like.
An electronic part-loaded module comprising a circuit board and electronic parts, each of said electronic parts being connected to said circuit board via a plurality of projecting electrodes, each of said projecting electrodes having a narrowed portion between a first face thereof connecting with said electronic parts and a second face thereof connecting with said circuit board, said narrowed portion being disposed in such a manner that said projecting electrodes have a smaller width in a direction parallel to a direction in which a maximum thermal stress is formed in said circuit board and said electronic parts in the vicinity of the connections with said projecting electrodes due to a difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between said electronic parts and said circuit board, than in a direction normal to said direction in which the maximum thermal stress is formed.
An electronic part-loaded module comprising a circuit board and electronic parts, each of said electronic parts being connected to said circuit board via a plurality of projecting electrodes, said plurality of projecting electrodes being disposed in such a manner that they surround a center point of a surface of said electronic part on which they are mounted, and each projecting electrode having a narrowed portion between a first face thereof connecting with said electronic parts and a second face thereof connecting with said circuit board, said narrowed portion of said projecting electrodes having a substantially rectangular contour with a pair of longer sides parallel to one another and a pair of shorter sides parallel to one another in a cross section thereof in a direction parallel to the major surface of said circuit board, wherein said rectangular contour has a longitudinal axis extending parallel to the longer sides and a transverse axis extending parallel to the shorter sides, and wherein each of said projecting electrodes is disposed so that the transverse axis of the rectangular cross section of each projecting electrode will be on a radial line extending from the center point of the surface of the electronic part to the projecting electrode.
An electronic part-loaded module comprising a circuit board and electronic parts, each of said electronic parts being connected to said circuit board via a plurality of projecting electrodes, said plurality of projecting electrodes being disposed in such a manner that they surround a center point of a surface of said electronic parts on which they are mounted, and each projecting electrode having a narrowed portion between a first face thereof connecting with said electronic parts and a second face thereof connecting with said circuit board, said narrowed portion of said projecting electrodes having a substantially oval contour in a cross section thereof in a direction parallel to the major surface of said circuit board, wherein each of said oval cross sections has a longitudinal axis through a center point of the oval cross section and through opposite apex points on said oval cross sections to define a maximum length of said oval cross section, and a transverse axis extending through the center point of the oval cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and wherein each of said projecting electrodes is disposed so that the transverse axis of the oval cross section of each projecting electrode will be on a radial line extending from the central point of the surface of the electronic part to the projecting electrode.
