  • Publication number: 20140313682
    Abstract: A composite electronic component includes a metal component with a wide surface terminal, a printed circuit board with a wide surface mounting pad; and a plurality of small area solder films partitioned into small sectioned regions. The small sectioned regions are sectioned by grid-shaped solder resist banks on the wide surface mounting pad. A cream solder is applied on the individual small sectioned regions to form the plurality of small area solder films. The grid-shaped solder resist bank has a width configured to: reduce a bubble that occurs in the sectioned region at one side of the grid-shaped solder resist bank from merging with a bubble that occurs in the sectioned region at another side of the grid-shaped solder resist bank; and act as an escaping route for a bubble that occur in the small area solder film.

A transistor driving the heater is controlled by an output of a differential amplifier, the thermistor is placed between a power supply voltage and an inverting input of the amplifier, and a first resistor used to adjust the temperature of a zero temperature coefficient point of the crystal unit is installed between the inverting input and a ground point. A second resistor is installed between the power supply voltage and a non-inverting input of the amplifier and a third resistor is installed between the non-inverting input and ground point. One of the second and third resistors is a resistor assembly made up of a plurality of resistance elements and one of these resistance elements is provided with positive resistance-temperature characteristics and adapted to detect ambient temperature.
