According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, since the electronic components are fixed on the PCB by the clamp, post processing, such as soldering or application of an adhesive, may be not needed. Also, since the PCB can be spaced from the adjacent configurations by the clamp, the efficient layout of the PCB is possible, resulting in an improvement of productivity of the PCB. In accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a clamp comprises a fixing part configured to surround at least one part of the outer surface of an electronic component, a connection part extending from the fixing part, and penetrating a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), an interference part provided in at least one of the fixing part or the connection part, and configured to be interfered by the PCB and a spacing part protruding from at least one of the connection part or the fixing part.

An assembly provides a dual function for mounting a port connector on a circuit board and also secures a capacitor to the circuit board. The assembly includes the circuit board and a monolithic plastic frame having a flange, a snap structure, a capacitor cradle, and a socket section. The flange has a fastening structure for fastening the frame to the circuit board. The snap structure for a snap-in attachment of the port connector to the frame is arranged near an end edge of the circuit board. The capacitor cradle for holding a cylindrical capacitor is formed adjacent to the snap structure and is elevated from the circuit board by an air gap. The socket section bears socket contacts for receiving capacitor contact leads.

An apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a male terminal. The apparatus includes a female terminal. The female terminal includes a set of cut slots. The male terminal includes a set of spring features. The set of spring features are configured to lock with the set of cut slots when the male terminal and the female terminal are engaged.

A base substrate has a thickness between two faces. The base substrate includes at least one hole extending in a thickness of the base substrate perpendicular to one of the two faces. At least one dipole of a surface-mount device type is housed in the at least one hole of the base substrate.

A semiconductor storage device including a board, an electronic component, and a holder. The board has a region with an opening. The electronic component includes a component body disposed in the opening and a lead protruding from the component body and connected to the board. The holder is disposed in the opening and supports the component body. The region includes first and second edges on either side of the opening, the first and second edges extending along a first direction and separated from each other in a second direction crossing the first direction. The holder includes a holder body at least partially formed in an annular shape and into which the component body is inserted, a first groove extending along the first direction and engaged with the first edge, and a second groove extending along the first direction and engaged with the second edge.
