An example of a method of making a printed structure comprises providing a destination substrate, contact pads disposed on the destination substrate, and a layer of adhesive disposed on the destination substrate. A stamp with a component adhered to the stamp is provided. The component comprises a stamp side in contact with the stamp and a post side opposite the stamp side, a circuit, and connection posts extending from the post side. Each of the connection posts is electrically connected to the circuit. The component is pressed into contact with the adhesive layer to adhere the component to the destination substrate and to form a printed structure having a volume defined between the component and the destination substrate. The stamp is removed and the printed structure is processed to fill or reduce the volume.

A method of manufacturing a wiring board includes a stacking process in which N (N is an integer equal to or greater than 2) wiring layers, end portions of which include linear conductor patterns, are stacked, with the end portions superimposed, via substrates (insulating layers) provided among the wiring layers and a laminated plate is manufactured and a removing process in which the insulating layers around the end portions of the conductor patterns of the laminated plate are removed to machine the end portions into N flying leads projecting from an end face.

An assembly is provided. The assembly includes a component, a solder pin arranged on the component, an electrical structural unit, and a soldering point which is arranged on the electrical structural unit and forms an opening, into which the solder pin is insertable along an insertion direction in order to produce a soldered joint. The solder pin has an insertion portion which, on sides of the solder pin that face away from each other, forms insertion walls which are arranged at an acute angle to one another in such a way that the insertion portion tapers in the insertion direction. A part of the insertion portion is arranged outside the opening in such a way that one or more portions of the insertion walls extend inside the opening and one or more portions of the insertion walls extend outside the opening.

A flexible electronic structure includes a first film, made of a first polymer or glass, and a second film, made of a second polymer, in which at least one electronic component is arranged. The second film covers the first film. The flexible electronic structure also includes at least one electrically conductive track arranged between the first film and the second film, and each electrically connected to one of the electronic components, by a respective interconnection element. Optionally, the flexible electronic structure includes a third film, made of a third polymer or glass, covering the second film. The interconnection element is arranged near the neutral plane of the structure, and the structure includes at least one compensation layer, so as to position the neutral plane at a desired location.

A component includes a main member that includes a first surface that opposes a circuit board, the component being mounted to the circuit board during an assembly procedure, and a plurality of legs that protrude from the first surface, the plurality of legs having ends, wherein the component is mounted on the circuit board with the ends of the plurality of legs fixed to the circuit board, each of the ends of the plurality of legs includes an end surface that opposes the circuit board at time of the assembly procedure, and also includes a bevel that is continuous with the end surface and inclined with respect to the end surface, and an interior angle formed between the end surface and the bevel is larger than or equal to 120° and smaller than or equal to 170°.
