A stack of electrical components has a first electrical component having a first surface, a second surface that is opposite to the first surface and a side surface that is located between the first surface and the second surface; a second electrical component having a third surface on which the first electrical component is mounted, the third surface facing the second surface and forming a corner portion between the third surface and the side surface; an adhesive layer that bonds the first electrical component to the second electrical component, the adhesive layer has a first portion that is located between the second and third surface and a second portion that is made of a same material as the first portion and that fills the corner portion; and a conductive layer that extends on a side of the side surface, curves along the second portion and extends to the third surface.

A stack of electrical components has a first electrical component having a first surface, a second surface that is opposite to the first surface and a side surface that is located between the first surface and the second surface; a second electrical component having a third surface on which the first electrical component is mounted, the third surface facing the second surface and forming a corner portion between the third surface and the side surface; an adhesive layer that bonds the first electrical component to the second electrical component, wherein the adhesive layer has a first portion that is located between the second surface and the third surface and a curved second portion that fills the corner portion; and a conductive layer that extends on a side of the side surface, curves along the second portion and extends to the third surface.

In a manufacturing method for a head gimbal assembly, before mounting a slider on a suspension, coating films each made of solder are formed on respective terminals of a plurality of leads to be connected to a plurality of electrode pads of the slider. After mounting the slider on the suspension, the coating films are heated with laser light to thereby melt the solder, with the respective terminals of the plurality of leads in contact with the corresponding electrode pads via the respective coating films, whereby the terminals are electrically and physically connected to the electrode pads.
