Abstract
A control unit for a motor vehicle has an electrical SMD (surface mounted device) component having at least one corresponding connection pin and a circuit board. The circuit board has at least one soldering surface. The soldering surface is permanently connected to the circuit board. The soldering surface and the connection pin are connectable to each other in an electrically conductive and firmly bonded manner by a soldering process. According to the disclosure, a contact hold-down piece is permanently connected to the circuit board. The connection pin is positioned in such a manner by the contact hold-down piece that, when the connection pin is connected to the soldering surface in an integrally bonded manner, the connection pin and the circuit board have a predetermined distance from each other.
