  • Patent number: 11114780
    Abstract: An electronic assembly includes an electronic module and an electric part. The electronic module includes an electrically conductive press-fit terminal. The electrically conductive press-fit terminal has a press-fit section. The electric part has a contact hole. The press-fit section is inserted in the contact hole and plastically deformed therein, such that the press-fit section both mechanically and electrically contacts the electric part in the plastically deformed state. A corresponding method of assembly is also described.
