A light emitting module includes a circuit board having a plurality of reflective portions arranged in one direction and connection portions connecting the plurality of reflective portions, light emitting devices mounted on the plurality of reflective portions, and lens units disposed to cover the light emitting devices within boundaries of surfaces, of the plurality of reflective portions, on which the light emitting devices are mounted. A width of each of the connection portions in the other direction, perpendicular to the one direction thereof, is smaller than a diameter of each of the lens units, thus reducing a generation of a dark portion.
Abstract:
A light source is provided including a heat sink and a printed circuit board (PCB) with a driver and lamps disposed in the central cavity of the heat sink. Each lamp is a semi-spherical solid state lamp, and multiple optical structures in operable registration with lamps. The PCB may further have two heat conducting strips proximate opposing edges of the PCB. The optical structures emit substantially shadowless, substantially homogeneous, and substantially monochromatic light. The optical structure includes an optical element for each lamp that substantially collimates the lamp's light and an optical element receiving a portion of the substantially collimated beam and provides multiple optical images of the collimated beam with a focal point that is practically infinite.

A fabrication method for a multi-piece board having a frame part and multi piece parts each having a printed wiring board includes producing the frame part having a first coupling portion, and the multi-piece parts including piece parts each having a second coupling portion coupled to the first coupling portion at a production panel with at least the frame part and the piece parts being separated from each other, separating the frame part and the multi-piece parts from the production panel, and coupling the first coupling portion to the second coupling portion to couple the frame part and the piece parts and combine the frame part and the multi piece parts so as to yield the multi-piece board.
Abstract:
A multi-chip module (MCM) is described. This MCM includes at least two substrates that are remateably mechanically coupled by positive and negative features on facing surfaces of the substrates. These positive and negative features may mate and self-lock with each other. For example, the positive features on one of the surfaces may include pairs of counterposed micro-springs, and the negative features may include pits or grooves on the other surface. When the substrates are mechanically coupled, a given pair of positive features may provide a force in a plane of the other surface. Furthermore, by compressing the MCM so that the surfaces of the substrates are pushed toward each other, the mechanical coupling may be released.

An appliance is provided which can be easily assembled, assures quality and reliability, and can be downsized. A voice output unit includes: a power source supplying power; a signal processing module which processes voice signals received from an external source, and amplifies the processed voice signals processed; a speaker module transmitting the amplified voice signals as voice signals; and a stereoscopic circuit board on which the power source, signal processing module, and speaker module are assembled, and includes electrodes which are in electric contact with electrodes of the foregoing components.
Abstract:
An interconnect structure of an integrated circuit and manufacturing method therefore are provided, relating to an interconnect structure of flexible packaging. The interconnect structure includes a first and a second conductive pads. A plurality of tiny and conductive first pillars is respectively formed on the first and second pads. With different densities and thicknesses of the first and second pillars, a contact strength can be generated when the pillars interconnecting with each other, such that the pillars are connected closely. Furthermore, the interconnect structure can also be used to connect with fibers made of conductive materials. Moreover, the higher the density of the pillars, the stronger the contact strength. And, electronic substrates and active or passive electronic elements can be stuck on the other side of each pad. Therefore, the interconnect structure can maintain flexibility and have high reliability without being enhanced by any thermosetting polymer.
