Patent ID: 7993418

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a solid electrolytic capacitor, the method comprising the steps of: (a) forming a capacitor element with a positive polarity; (b) inserting and connecting an anode wire to one side of the capacitor element; (c) forming a cathode extraction layer on the capacitor element; (d) forming a plurality of bumps on the cathode extraction layer; (e) inserting a projecting end of the anode wire into an insertion portion of the anode lead frame, and fixing the capacitor element to the anode lead frame; (f) forming a molding portion to surround the capacitor element; (g) exposing the projecting end of the anode wire, the outer surface of the anode lead frame, and ends of the conductive bumps; and (h) forming an anode lead terminal, which is electrically connected to the exposed end of the anode wire and the outer surface of the anode lead frame, and a cathode lead terminal which is electrically connected to the exposed ends of the conductive bumps, wherein in step (e), an insulating adhesive is provided on the anode lead frame, the projecting end of the anode wire is inserted into the insertion portion of the anode lead frame, and the capacitor element is pressed against the anode lead frame so that the position of the capacitor element is accurately adjusted in a state where the insulating adhesive is semi-cured by applying heat to the anode lead frame, and then the insulating adhesive is completely cured.
