Abstract:
This disclosure describes an electrical connector for joining microcircuit or microcircuit modules, such as leadless integrated or hybrid circuit carriers to utilization means, such as printed or etched circuit boards or similar means. The electrical contacts through which the microcircuit and utilization means are connected are formed and etched in place on an elastomeric material, precisely located; the material acting as a restoring force to maintain connection. The connector when used in a system maintains transmission line mediums in a single environment.
Abstract:
An electro-mechanical package is disclosed which includes an LCD and an IC chip mounted on opposite sides of a PC board by common package-retaining means, which includes posts extending through the PC board and a clip member that latches onto the ends of the posts to retain the package in assembled position. The latching action is resilient and permits non-destructive disassembly.
Abstract:
The display apparatus comprises a liquid crystal display element, a circuit board and electroconductive members interconnecting them. External terminals are formed on one substrate of the display element and input terminals are formed on the circuit board. The external terminals are electrically and mechanically interconnected by rigid electroconductive members through conductive films.

1,263,126. Mounting semi-conductor devices. TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Inc. 19 Aug., 1969 [24 Oct., 1968], No. 41277/69. Headings H1K and H1R. For mounting, e.g. a miniaturized electronic circuit 22 on a printed circuit board 32 and making electrical connection between the circuit and board, insulating body 10 has pedestal members 18 extending downwardly from its lower surface, metallized zones 20 on its upper surface form leads for circuit 22 and conductive paths electrically connect leads 22 with metal films on the bottoms of the pedestal members. As shown, the sides of the pedestal members are metallized to form the conductive paths. Alternatively (Figs. 5 to 8, not shown) the conductive paths are formed by filling holes drilled through the pedestals with wire or molten metal. The pedestal members may have square or round cross-section and the bottoms may be rounded. The insulating body may be of plastics, glass or ceramic and the metallization may be applied by coating with Mo or Mn in a binder through a mask, firing and electroplating with layers of Ni, Ag and Au. A layer of Sn may be applied by hot dipping. The circuit 22 may be a single transistor or may contain active and passive components and may be encapsulated with epoxy resin after it has been connected to the metallized paths.
Abstract:
A surface-mounted integrated circuit (IC) package is disclosed that has unwanted flux removed from surface-mounted IC. A bottom termination component (BTC) includes lands and a thermal pad. The lands provide an electrical connection from the BTC and the thermal pad provides heat transfer from the BTC. The thermal pad includes vias that are configured to remove flux generated from solder applied to the surface-mounted IC as the surface-mounted IC is assembled. A printed circuit board (PCB) is mounted to the BTC and is electrically connected to the BTC via the lands and receives heat transfer from the BTC via the thermal pad and includes a reservoir. The reservoir is configured to pull flux positioned between the lands into the reservoir as the flux is generated from the solder applied to the surface-mounted IC as the BTC is mounted to the PCB and as the surface-mounted IC is assembled.

An apparatus includes a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes at least one conductive layer on top a first dielectric layer, wherein the at least one conductive layer comprises at least one of a ground plane and a power plane. The printed circuit board includes a second dielectric layer on top of the at least one conductive layer. The printed circuit board includes a thermal pad on top of the second dielectric layer. The printed circuit board is fabricated by forming at least one plated through hole for electrically coupling the thermal pad to the at least one conductive layer. The printed circuit board is fabricated by backdrilling the at least one plated through hole to remove a portion of the conductive material, wherein subsequent to the backdrilling the conductive material remaining in the at least one plated through hole electrically couples one or more of the at least one conductive layer to the thermal pad.
