A retainer device which connects to a printed circuit board (PCB) to provide added structural rigidity to a capacitor (or other electrical component) mounted to the PCB. The retainer device is able to provide increased durability of capacitor leads against vibrational fatigue. The retainer device is designed to add structural rigidity to single or multiple capacitors soldered to a PCB. The retainer device exerts a positive force against the capacitor, pressing the capacitor against the PCB. This in turn limits the fatigue deflection of the capacitor leads. The retainer device has at least one spring retention ring, where the spring retention ring is able to apply force to the capacitor, which aids in ensuring that the capacitor is flush to the surface of the PCB, which reduces the load on the leads of the capacitor.

A component holding device for the fixed-position arrangement of an electric component on a circuit board, having a support side for receiving the electric component, wherein at least one pretensioning element and at least one first latching element for the fixed-position latching of the electric component are provided on the support side, and the at least one pretensioning element is designed to exert a pretensioning force on the electric component, which presses the electric component against the at least one first latching element, and having at least one second latching element on an underside lying opposite the support side, wherein the second latching element is designed to fix the component holding device in a predefined location in a fixed position on the circuit board.

An edge launch signal connector (e.g., RF connector) comprises a connector body having a support aperture, and one or more interface surfaces operable to interface with an edge launch connector support portion of a first circuit board. A plurality of ground contact pins can be supported by the connector body and can be arrayed about the support aperture of the connector body, and a signal pin can be supported within the support aperture. In response to the edge launch signal connector engaging a second circuit board, the signal pin interfaces with a signal contact pad of the second circuit board, and the plurality of ground contact pins interface with at least one ground contact pad. A first circuit board assembly can support a plurality of edge launch signal connectors for blind-mate coupling first and second circuit board assemblies together to accommodate for positional tolerances.
