Abstract:
A microelectronic device package (100) that includes a microelectronic device (106) encapsulated within a packaging material (102). The microelectronic device package also includes a lead (104) attached to a portion of the microelectronic device extending through the packaging material. The lead has a break portion and a non-break portion on a tip of the lead.
Abstract:
An electrical connector 1 has a housing (2) with a base (3) for mounting on a printed circuit board (5), projecting mounting posts (6) extend from the base, a conductive outer shell (22) and a dielectric body (23) surrounded by the housing (2), a first conductive contact (25) has a first contact portion (48) projecting from the housing (2) for insertion into a corresponding aperture (55) of a printed circuit board (5), a second contact portion (33) projecting from the housing (2) for insertion into a corresponding aperture (7) of a printed circuit board (5), and each contact portion (33,48) has a taper (50) toward the free end and with an apex (51) of the taper (50) that intersects a longitudinal edge (52) of the corresponding contact portion (33,48) and is aligned with a center line (54) of a corresponding aperture (55) of a printed circuit board (5).

Abstract:
A flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) assembly for a battery module includes a insulated flexible film and conductor patterns arranged inside the film in a predetermined form, and the conductor patterns transmit an electric signal. The FPCB assembly includes a main FPCB configured to extend in one direction; and a sub FPCB assembled to at least one side of the main FPCB and configured to extend in a direction different from the main FPCB.
Abstract:
The present invention consists of an implantable device with at least one package that houses electronics that sends and receives data or signals, and optionally power, from an external system through at least one coil attached to at least one package and processes the data, including recordings of neural activity, and delivers electrical pulses to neural tissue through at least one array of multiple electrodes that are attached to the at least one package. The device is adapted to electrocorticographic (ECoG) and local field potential (LFP) signals. A brain stimulator, preferably a deep brain stimulator, stimulates the brain in response to neural recordings in a closed feedback loop. The device is advantageous in providing neuromodulation therapies for neurological disorders such as chronic pain, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), major depression, or similar disorders. The invention and components thereof are intended to be installed in the head, or on or in the cranium or on the dura, or on or in the brain.
Abstract:
An electronic circuit contains a circuit board with conducting tracks to which one or more electronic components with conducting contacts are positioned overlying portions of the conducting tracks and each such electronic component is held in place by a clamp that is in contact with the top surface of the electronic components so as to hold their conducting contacts in electrical contact with the conducting tracks of the circuit board. The clamp can include a resilient layer held between the top surface of electronic components and a rigid clamping sheet.
Abstract:
A method of fixing reflowable elements on electrical contacts. The method includes providing a strip having a number of electrical contacts, each contact including a contact body and a tail portion extending away from the contact body. The tail portions of the contacts are then disposed adjacent an elongate reflowable member. The elongate reflowable member is pushed onto the tail portions of the plurality of contacts. Subsequently, the elongate reflowable member is cut into a plurality of separate reflowable elements, each reflowable element corresponding to one of the tail portions. The electrical contacts with the reflowable element attached thereto are separated from the strip.
Abstract:
A surface mounting discharge tube, comprise of a cylindrical ceramic envelope sealed at its two ends by side surfaces of electrodes, designed to be directly soldered on to a mounting board, where the electrodes at the two ends are rectangular, project outward radially at the ends of the ceramic envelope and are provided at peripheral edges at the side surfaces of the electrodes with soldering use tapers or step differences, whereby positional deviation at the time of soldering is suppressed and sufficient PCT properties are secured.
