A terminal, in particular for electronic printed circuit boards, with which contact can be made with the printed circuit board in a materially connecting fashion. In order to obtain, in a terminal arrangement of this type, a more suitable, simpler and statically stable means of making contact, the terminal has at the bottom a planar, solderable bottom face as connecting face, and the printed circuit board has a corresponding, metallized area as solder face only on its upper side to which the terminal can be soldered.
A surface mount probe point socket has a housing with base and a socket extending from the base. The base has a length and width sufficient for attaching the housing to a circuit trace using an electrically conductive material while adding minimal inductance and capacitance to the circuit trace. The socket has a height and diameter for supporting a measurement probe in the housing while adding minimal inductance and capacitance to the measurement probe. A probe point contact is disposed in the bore of the socket for receiving a probe point disposed in the end of the measurement probe to secure the probe in the housing. Two surface mount probe point sockets may be joined together with an alignment gage and attached to adjacent circuit traces to produce a surface mount probe point socket system for differential measurement probes.
A current supply point for a power and control unit of a battery-operated industrial truck wherein the power and control unit has a printed-circuit board inside a casing, the current supply point has a first component connectable to the printed-circuit board and a pin-shaped second component led out of the casing in an insulation which is adapted to be brought into electric contact with the first component, and wherein a portion of the second component that is located outside the casing has means for connection to a conductor, wherein the first component has a first portion connectable to the printed-circuit board, a second portion having a male thread, and a third portion including an annular first contact surface, the second component has an axial bore with a female thread within a first end portion that is adapted to be screwed onto the male thread of the first component so as to cause the first contact surface to abut against an annular second contact surface of the second component.
A circuit board assembly including a circuit board having at least one conductive element attached thereto and at least one surface mount stud carrier mounted on the circuit board and electrically connected to the at least one conductive element.
A bonding lug apparatus for devices such as electric motors installed within a distance of a fluid-holding apparatus such as pools, hot tubs, spas, and the like, is provided that includes a fastener having a head and a bonding lug having an aperture that receives the fastener such that a bonding conductor of a bonding grid of the fluid-holding apparatus area is captured between the head of the fastener and the bonding lug. The bonding lug apparatus bonds the electric motor to the bonding grid of the fluid-holding apparatus area when the bonding lug apparatus is electrically coupled to the electric motor and the bonding conductor.
An electric motor having an integrally formed bonding apparatus that allows an installer to quickly and efficiently bond the electric motor to a bonding grid of a bonding area. A fastener having a head is inserted into an aperture of the housing of the electric motor such that a bonding conductor is captured between the housing and the head. The bonding conductor is electrically coupled to the housing via direct contact between the bonding conductor and the housing and/or via indirect contact through the fastener. An integrally formed surface of the housing prevents the bonding conductor from moving out from under the head.
