Abstract:
Aspects of the embodiments are directed to an opto-electronic device and methods of using the same. The opto-electronic device can include a processing device and a photonic device. The photonic device can include an optical demultiplexer; a collimating lens optically coupled to the optical demultiplexer and positioned to receive light from the optical demultiplexer, the collimating lens to collimate light received from the optical demultiplexer; a photodetector comprising a photosensitive element, the photosensitive element to convert received light into an electrical signal; and a focusing lens optically coupled to the photodetector, the focusing lens to receive light and focus the light towards the photosensitive element.
Abstract:
Discussed generally herein are methods and devices including or providing an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. A device can include a substrate including electrical connection circuitry therein, grounding circuitry on, or at least partially in the substrate, the grounding circuitry at least partially exposed from a surface of the substrate, a die electrically connected to the connection circuitry and the grounding circuitry, the die on the substrate, and a conductive foil or conductive film surrounding the die, the conductive foil or conductive film electrically connected to the grounding circuitry.

Abstract:
Coated probe tips are described for plunger pins of an integrated circuit package tests system. One example has a plunger having a tip to contact a solder ball of an integrated circuit package, a sleeve to hold the plunger and allow the plunger to move toward and away from the package, the sleeve being held in a socket, a spring within the sleeve to drive the plunger toward the package, and a coating over the tip, the coating being harder than a solder ball.
Abstract:
In various embodiments this disclosure is directed to conductive adhesives layers that can be used, in one example embodiment, to connect one or more shielding structures (for example, metal cans and/or covers) to a semiconductor package to enclose one or more electronic components on the semiconductor package. In another embodiment, the conductive adhesive layers disclosed herein can be used in connection with optoelectronic devices (for example, optoelectronic devices including laser diodes and/or avalanche photodiodes, APDs). In one embodiment, the conductive adhesives can additionally be used for thermal dissipation and for electrical contact in connection with one or more electronic components on a semiconductor package. In one embodiment, various materials including, spray prints, conductive paste, inks (for example, sintering silver-based materials), epoxy material (for example, epoxy materials filled with silver and/or other metal particles) can be used to provide a conductive adhesive layer.
Abstract:
Aspects of the embodiments are directed to coupling a permanent magnet (PM) with a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device. In embodiments, an adhesive, such as an epoxy or resin or other adhesive material, can be used to move the PM towards the MEMS device to magnetically couple the PM to the MEMS device. In embodiments, an adhesive that is configured to shrink up on curing can be applied (e.g., using a pick and place tool) to a location between the MEMS device and the PM. As a result of curing, the adhesive can pull the PM towards the MEMS device. In embodiments, an adhesive that is configured to expand as a result of curing can be applied to a location between the PM and a sidewall of the chassis. As a result of curing, the adhesive can push the PM towards the MEMS device. The adhesive can also secure the PM in place.
