Method of soldering an electronic connector on a printed circuit board

A method of soldering a connector on a printed circuit board, wherein first and second leads protrude in parallel with each other from a main body of the connector and connector electrodes extend along front and reverse surfaces of the printed circuit board inwardly from an edge of the printed circuit board, said method comprising the steps of:

• coating solder on a surface of the connector electrode extending along the reverse surface of the printed circuit board;
• applying solder onto the connector electrode extending along the front surface, being offset a predetermined distance inward from the edge of the printed circuit board;
• sliding said first lead along a surface of the connector electrode on the front surface and said second lead along a surface of the solder coated on the connector electrode on the reverse surface inwardly from the edge of the printed circuit board until a distal end of said first lead is brought into contact with said solder applied onto the connector electrode on the front surface;
• and
• melting both said solder applied on the connector electrode on the front surface and said solder coated on the connector electrode on the reverse surface under a condition where said distal end of the first lead is brought into contact with said solder applied on the connector electrode on the front surface, thereby soldering the connector on both front and reverse surfaces of the printed circuit board.

A method of soldering a connector on a printed circuit board, wherein said connector has a lead and a protrusion both extending from a main body of said connector in parallel to each other, and a connector electrode extends along a surface of the printed circuit board inwardly from an edge of the printed circuit board, said method comprising the steps of:

• applying solder onto the connector electrode, being offset a predetermined distance inward from the edge of the printed circuit board;
• applying solder onto surface mounting type electrodes, formed on the same surface as said connector electrode;
• placing a surface mounting type electronic component on said solder applied on said surface mounting type electrodes;
• engaging said connector with said printed circuit board by sliding said lead along the connector electrode inwardly from the edge of the printed circuit board, while sandwiching said printed circuit board between said lead and said protrusion of said connector, until a distal end of said lead is brought into contact with said solder on the connector electrode;
• and
• melting both said solder on the connector electrode and said solder on the surface mounting type electrodes under a condition where the distal end of the lead is brought into contact with said solder on the connector electrode, thereby soldering both the connector and the surface mounting type electronic component on the printed circuit board.

A method of soldering a connector on a printed circuit board, wherein first and second leads protrude in parallel with each other from a main body of the connector and connector electrodes extending along both surfaces of the printed circuit board inwardly from an edge of the printed circuit board, said method comprising the steps of:

• applying solder onto the connector electrode extending along one surface of the printed circuit board;
• applying solder onto surface mounting type electrodes formed on said one surface of the printed circuit board;
• placing a surface mounting type electronic component on the solder applied on the surface mounting type electrodes formed on said one surface of the printed circuit board;
• melting said solder applied on said one surface of the printed circuit board;
• applying solder onto the connector electrode formed on the other surface of said printed circuit board, being offset a predetermined distance inward from the edge of the printed circuit board;
• applying solder on surface mounting type electrodes formed on said other surface of the printed circuit board;
• placing another surface mounting type electronic component on the solder applied on the surface mounting type electrodes formed on said other surface of the printed circuit board;
• engaging said connector with said printed circuit board by sliding said first lead along a surface of the connector electrode on said other surface and sliding said second lead along a surface of the solder applied on the connector electrode on said one surface inwardly from the edge of the printed circuit board, while sandwiching said printed circuit board between said first and second leads, until a distal end of said first lead is brought into contact with said solder formed on said other surface;
• and
• melting the solder applied on said other surface of the printed circuit board, under a condition where the distal end of the first lead is brought into contact with said solder formed on the connector electrode on said other surface, thereby soldering the connector on both surfaces of the printed circuit board.
