Abstract:
The present invention provides a matched-impedance jumper that is operable to connect pairs of differential signal conductors to provide improved signal transmission characteristics. In an embodiment of the invention, the impedance-matched jumper is used to connect a first pair of differential signal conductors to a selected pair of differential signal conductors selected from a plurality of second pairs of differential signal conductors. The impedance-matched jumper comprises a plurality of input pins that are operable to connect with a plurality of connection pads on the first pair of differential signal conductors and a plurality of output pins operable to connect with a plurality of connection pads on the predetermined second pair of differential signal conductors. A plurality of internal conductors are operably connected to the input pins and the output pins to define a signal path therebetween. The signal path defined by the input pins, the output pins, and the internal conductors provides an impedance-matched passthrough for differential signals.
Abstract:
In Electronics, there exists three distinctive areas namely, discrete components or devices, circuits, and systems. A circuit is built from devices and a system is built from circuits. This invention aims at reducing the implementation of electronic systems down to just three steps namely, systems design, printed-circuit-board planar assembly, and systems test when-as a plurality of Universal Systems Printed-Circuit Blocks of pre-defined sizes is used. Each of said Universal Systems Printed-Circuit Blocks being usable and reusable for prototypes and production is built from a printed circuit board having thereon a functional circuit and a variety of circuit patterns and interconnection structures such that, any of said Blocks, when joined together with other Blocks on the same plane by standard connectors or electrically conductive compounds to form a systems board, can send and receive signals and voltages to and from any other Blocks.

A printed circuit board with a microstrip radio frequency delay line deposited thereon. In addition, a plurality of delay line segments are deposited on the board in close proximity to one end of the delay line. To achieve an overall desired delay length, one of the delay line segments is selected and serially inserted in circuit with the delay line by populating a surface mount circuit element between terminals at the ends of the delay line and the selected delay line segment.
Abstract:
An object of this invention is to provide a circuit board low in manufacturing cost in which aimed circuit patterns having a circuit gap therebetween can be short-circuited substantially irrespective of the length of the circuit gap while being insulated from other circuit patterns which are laid in the circuit gap. In a circuit board on which a plurality of circuit patterns are arranged, a selected one of circuit patterns is cut to have a circuit gap where the selected circuit pattern is laid across the remaining circuit patterns, in such a manner that the circuit gap divides the selected circuit patterns into two parts, a conductor formed by cutting a wire to the length of the circuit gap bridges the circuit gap, to short-circuit the two parts thereby to complete the selected circuit pattern, the conductor being insulated from the remaining circuit patterns laid across the circuit gap.
