Abstract

An electrical connection structure terminates an electrical signal wire while electrically coupling the wire to a target circuit board. A rigid printed circuit board or flex circuit is attached in a substantially perpendicular orientation to the target board by way of solder. A termination circuit is then mounted near the end of the rigid board or flex circuit that is attached to the target circuit board, with the termination circuit electrically coupling the signal wire with the target circuit board.
