Abstract
A method for manufacturing a terminal-strip-equipped electronic component in which terminal strips made of a metal plate are bonded with solder to terminal electrodes of an electronic chip component on two opposing end surfaces. Solder cream is applied to outer surfaces of the terminal electrodes. The terminal strips are thermocompression bonded to the terminal electrodes by placing the electronic chip component between the terminal strips and pressing the terminal strips against the terminal electrodes using a pair of heating elements so as to obtain an electronic component to which the terminal strips are temporarily fixed. The terminal strips are fully fixed to the electronic component by melting the solder cream as a result of heating the electronic component in a heating furnace so as to obtain a terminal-strip-equipped electronic component.
