Abstract:
A circuit board includes a core layer, at least one passive component, a first and a second conductive wire layers, at least one contact pad, and a resin packing layer. The core layer defines at least one through hole to receive the passive component. The first and the second conductive wire layers are connected to two opposite surfaces of the core layer. Each contact pad is positioned between and connected to one passive component and the first conductive wire layer. The resin packing layer is filled among the core layer, each passive component, each contact pad, the first and the second conductive wire layers. The resin packing layer can connect the first and the second conductive wire layers to the core layer, and connect the core layer, each passive component, and each contact pads to each other.
Abstract:
A selective segment via plating process for manufacturing a circuit board selectively interconnects inner conductive layers as separate segments within the same via. Plating resist is applied to a conductive layer of an inner core and then stripped off after an electroless plating process. Stripping of the electroless plating on the plating resist results in a plating discontinuity on the via wall. In a subsequent electroplating process, the plug non-conductive layer can not be plated due to the plating discontinuity. The resulting circuit board structure has separate electrically interconnected segments within the via.

Abstract:
An RF connector includes a conductive pin for carrying an RF signal. The conductive pin has a first longitudinal end that serves to interface with a male RF connector to receive the RF signal. The pin also includes a second longitudinal end for connecting with a printed circuit board (PCB). The second longitudinal end may be tapered, and the pin may have a groove formed above the tapered end. A housing encircles the conductive pin. The housing is shaped and sized to accept the male RF connector. A grounding element may be positioned on the bottom of the housing. The grounding element is to contact the PCB when the connector is connected to the PCB. The grounding element may be ring-shaped and soldered to the housing or epoxied to the housing.
