ABSTRACT:
An SCSI cable assembly (30) with a termination circuit included within one of the connector housings (44) is disclosed. The termination circuit is on a circuit board (52) that is retained within a cavity (68) between two solder nest halves (50). The solder nest halves (50) have a plurality of openings (70) that are in alignment with contact pads (54) on a surface of the circuit board (52). Solder segments (100) are arranged within the openings (70), and conductors (48) of a cable (32) are individually inserted into the openings in thermal engagement with the solder segments to form a solder nest assembly (40). An electrical connector having a plurality of contact leads (58) spaced similarly to the spacing of the openings (70) is assembled to the solder nest assembly so that each lead (58) is in thermal engagement with a respective conductor (48) in a respective opening (70). Each lead (58) is attached to a common carrier strip (104) which is a self regulating temperature heater. The heater is activated by application of an RF current to reflow the solder segment (100) thereby electrically connecting the leads (58) to their respective conductors (48) and contact pads (54).
