Abstract

A diode mount for an LED (2) with a plug connector (3) and compensating resistor (4) is manufactured by injection molding a one piece housing and mounting an LED and plug connector therein. An electrical connection between the LED and the plug connector, as well as a mechanical fixing, is accomplished by an electrically-conductive paste (5). At the same time, the electrically-conductive paste forms the compensating resistor.
