Abstract
A method of making an array of electrical components having pre-attached leads ready for automated surface-mounting on a substrate. The method involves aligning an array of leads with electrical components and attaching each lead to a conductive terminal on a respective component. A series or coil of leads joined integrally together and carried by a carrier strip is thus provided with a series of electrical components pre-attached thereto. The electrical components along with their leads may thus be quickly and easily surface-connected to the conductive pads on a substrate in a simple, automated manner.
