Abstract:
1. A welding system component comprising: a circuit board for said welding system component, at least one capacitor for said welding system component, an interface including a main riser portion extending generally orthogonally to a surface of the circuit board with a fastener passageway formed therethrough, and an extension portion extending generally parallel to the surface of the circuit board with a terminal passageway formed therethrough, with the extension portion electrically connected to the circuit board and with said main riser portion electrically connected to the at least one capacitor, with a terminal disposed in the terminal passageway and the extension portion spaced away from a surface of the circuit board and from a surface of said at least one capacitor, and said at least one capacitor electrically connected to the main riser portion with a fastener disposed in the fastener passageway, and said circuit board and said at least one capacitor in non-contacting physical relationship other than through said interface.
