Patent ID: 7943860

Claim:
A material board for producing a hybrid circuit board provided with a metallic terminal plate, the material board comprising a plurality of hybrid circuit board sections on each of which an electronic component is mounted and a metallic terminal plate for external connection is bonded to project from the hybrid circuit board section in a predetermined projection direction, a frame portion being defined between the hybrid circuit board sections, and the hybrid circuit board sections being integrally connected to the frame portion via a thin strip provided at an intermediate portion of grooves each surrounding a respective one of the hybrid circuit board sections entirely, wherein a first pair of holes and a second pair of holes are formed in the frame portion at a region with which the terminal plate is to overlap and which is close to one of the grooves, the first pair and the second pair are spaced away from each other in a direction crossing the projection direction, the holes of the first pair are spaced away from each other in the projection direction, the holes of the second pair are spaced away from each other in the projection direction, and an adhesive for temporarily bonding the terminal plate to the frame portion is applied between the holes of the first pair and also between the holes of the second pair, wherein each of the holes has a circular cross section, and the adhesive is applied to an area smaller than the cross section of each hole.
