ABSTRACT:
A preferred method for coupling a transmission line to a circuit board includes the steps of: providing a circuit board with a first side and an opposing second side; dispensing solder upon the first side of the circuit board; providing a first coupler having a conductive lead portion and a ductile conductive tube portion extending from the conductive lead portion; engaging the conductive lead portion with the solder dispensed upon the first side of the circuit board; heating the circuit board, the solder and the conductive lead portion so that the solder reflows, thereby securing the first coupler to the first side of the circuit board; inserting an extremity of the first conductor into the ductile conductive tube portion; and crimping the ductile conductive tube portion so as to provide crimped retention of the first conductor therein. Circuit boards, devices and systems also are provided.
