Abstract
A printed circuit board or other substrate mounts electrical components substantially coplanar with the median plane or thickness of the board or substrate. The board furnishes an opening having bonding pads plated through the opening and fixed on the opposite sidewalls of the opening. The electrical component becomes placed in the the opening with solder paste between the bonding pads and end terminals of the electrical component. Reflow soldering techniques melt the solder paste into solder filets that solidify to fasten the electrical component within the opening in coplanar with the median plane or thickness of the board.
