Abstract
An electronic component is equipped with electrode protrusions that make it possible to mount the electronic component without covering connection pads of a circuit board with solder and to dispose the connection pads of the circuit board with a narrow pitch while preventing electrical shorting of the connection electrodes during mounting. A method of manufacturing an electronic component equipped with connection electrodes, where electrode protrusions are covered with solder, includes a step of heating a solder sheet to a semi-molten state and pressing the electronic component onto the solder sheet to place the electrode protrusions in contact with the solder sheet and a step of retracting the electronic component from a position where the electrode protrusions contact the solder sheet to transfer solder onto outside surfaces of the electrode protrusions that contacted the solder sheet.
