Abstract:
A wiring board includes an external connection terminal of a cylindrical shape, in which an electrode terminal of the electronic component to be mounted is fitted. In one configuration, a portion of the external connection terminal is electrically connected to a pad portion formed on an electronic component mounting surface side of the wiring board, and the external connection terminal is curvedly formed in such a shape that the outer periphery of the electrode terminal comes into close contact with the inner periphery of the middle portion of the external connection terminal when the electrode terminal is inserted into the external connection terminal.
Abstract:
In a camera device of the present invention, a camera module 2 is mounted on a substrate 1 provided in the camera device by use of contact pins 3 for connecting first terminals provided on a backside of the camera module 2 to second terminals provided on the substrate 1. The contact pins 3 have first and second ends, and the first ends are soldered to ones of the first and second terminals and the second ends have contact with the other ones of the first and second terminals, respectively, so that the camera module 2 is electrically connected to the substrate 1, and the contact pins 3 are provided independently. This decreases restrictions on mounting the camera module 2 on the substrate 1, and also makes it possible to provide a camera device, in which the camera module 2 can be easily mounted on the substrate 1.

Abstract:
A grounding device for reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI) on a printed circuit board (PCB) includes a grounded portion formed on the PCB, a threaded hole defined in the PCB, and a connecting member. The grounded portion is a part of a grounding layer of the PCB and with high impedance. The threaded hole is grounded and with low impedance. The connecting member includes a first connecting tab and a second connecting tab separately formed at opposite ends thereof. The first connecting tab is electrically connected with the threaded hole via a screw. The second connecting end resiliently abuts against the grounded portion of the PCB.
Abstract:
An arrangement between a power semiconductor module and a printed circuit board is disclosed, A printed circuit board includes strip conductors, and a power semiconductor module includes a module housing and power terminals. The power terminals extend to the exterior of the module housing and into contact with the strip conductors. A heat sink is disposed on a side of the power semiconductor module opposite the circuit board. A deformable means is disposed between the module housing and the circuit board and is configured to relieve a contact pressure load on the power terminals. A contact-pressure element is disposed on a side of the circuit board opposite the power semiconductor module. The contact-pressure element is integral with a first housing part of an arrangement housing, and the heat sink is integral with a second housing part of the arrangement housing. The two housing parts enclose the circuit board.
Abstract:
A dual-personality extended USB (EUSB) system supports both USB and EUSB memory cards using an extended 9-pin EUSB socket. Each EUSB memory card includes a PCBA having four standard USB metal contact pads disposed on an upper side of a PCB, and several extended purpose contact springs that extend through openings defined in the PCB. Passive components are mounted on a lower surface of the PCB using SMT methods, and IC dies are mounted using COB methods, and then the components and IC dies are covered by a plastic molded housing. The extended 9-pin EUSB socket includes standard USB contacts and extended use contacts that communicate with the PCBA through the standard USB metal contacts and the contact springs. The PCBA includes dual-personality electronics for USB and EUSB communications.
Abstract:
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a thermal management system for an electronic assembly includes an electronic component coupled to a substrate, the substrate coupled to a coldplate, a spring member disposed between and engaging both the electronic component and the coldplate, and a heat transfer element disposed within a chamber formed by the spring member.
Abstract:
Multiple small conductive and flexible hollow rings, each of which is made from a pliable material, provide a flexible connection medium for use between a substrate and a microelectronic device package. Each ring is formed to have at least one protuberance on the a ring's exterior surface. The protuberance has an apex or point, which when placed against a surface, will scrub or scrape the surface as the ring is compressed by a force acting on the ring radially. By scrubbing a contact surface with the apex, surface contaminants and layered material that might interfere with electrical signals can be removed.
Abstract:
Multiple small conductive and flexible hollow rings, each of which is made from a pliable material, provide a flexible connection medium for use between a substrate and a microelectronic device package. Each ring is soldered to both the substrate and the device. A portion of the sidewall of each ring is not soldered thus insuring that at least part of the ring stays flexible. The rings accommodate elevation differences on a substrate and electronic device package. They also provide a vibration resistant and flexible joint.
Abstract:
