ABSTRACT:
A circuit board component, specifically a capacitor, which is configured to be machine insertable into apertures of a circuit board. The component is a cylindrical element having at least two recessed sectors in the outer surface of the cylindrical element which recessed surfaces are provided with an electrically conductive material. The conductive material either forms a part of the component such as capacitor plates and/or provides a contact surface for the connecting of an internally-mounted electrical component. An indexing means positioned on the one end of the cylindrical element provides a means whereby an automatic insertion machine can by indexing insure the correct orientation of the component with regard to corresponding electrical contacts on the circuit board. A flange extending from one end of the cylindrical element provides a stop in order to limit the travel of the component within the circuit board aperture when inserted by automatic means.
