Abstract:
1. A circuit apparatus, comprising: a laminar support having a thickness, an upper face and an opposed lower face; a conductive track on the lower face of the laminar support, the conductive track having a conductive cross-section with an effective capacity to carry electrical power; an auxiliary conductive element bonded to and electrically connected to the conductive track on the lower face of the laminar support to increase the conductive cross section of the conductive track and to thereby increase the effective capacity of the conductive track to carry electrical power, an electrical component mounted on the upper face of the laminar support opposite the auxiliary conductive element, the electrical component electrically connected through the laminar support to the auxiliary conductive element on the lower face of the laminar support; and wherein the auxiliary conductive element is applied by means of an apparatus for applying SMD components.
