Abstract

Copper electrodes are formed on a circuit board to be bonded with leads of a TAB driving liquid crystal. A pre-deposit solder receiver having solder printed thereon is also provided on the circuit board in alignment with and prior to an electrode to be first bonded with a lead, to form a sufficient solder pool between plural electrodes and a bottom wall of a soldering iron. Solder/bonding is accordingly realized efficiently even from a starting electrode E1. Also, an excessive solder receiver may be provided in alignment with and after an electrode to be last bonded with a lead.
