Abstract
A diode or other axial lead electronic component which requires mounting of its leads in a predetermined orientation is provided with leads of considerably different diameter. A printed circuit board is provided with holes sized to receive respective leads, so that the leads can be inserted into the holes only one way. Instead of having circular cross-sections and different diameters, one lead may have a circular cross-section while all or an end portion of the other lead has a non-circular cross-section with a diameter allowing that lead to fit in only the larger hole of the printed circuit board.
