Abstract
Method for manufacturing an elastic connector, integrated with an electrode of at least either a chip-type LED or a printed circuit board on which a LED element is directly mounted and to which the LED is electrically connected. The LED-integrated connector can subsequently be mounted on another circuit board by being sandwiched and compressed between a lower surface of the chip-type LED or lower surface of the LED-mounted printed circuit board and the other circuit board to which the LED-integrated connector is being mounted, so as to provide an electric connection. The method providing a LED-integrated connector which is thin and cost-effective while able to provide a simple and secure conductivity between electrodes of the chip-type LED and other circuit board, to which the LED-integrated connector is subsequently mounted.
