Abstract:
To increase the elasticity of an elastically deformable middle section of a printed-circuit board having at least two rigid circuit board sections provided with electric and/or electronic components and interconnected by the middle section, the middle section being provided with printed circuit traces extending from the first rigid section to the second rigid section, at least one opening is made in the elastically deformable middle section, the region of the middle section surrounding the opening forming at least two bars extending in a direction from the first rigid section to the second rigid section and laterally bordering the at least one opening, the printed circuit traces being arranged on the bars. When, in an electric/electronic device, the first rigid section of the printed-circuit board is fixedly joined to a component part supported in a vibration-damped manner, and the second rigid section is fixedly joined to the device housing, then vibrations are prevented from being transmitted from the printed-circuit board to the component part.
Abstract:
A laminated damping material comprising a layer of high density and high modulus material as a core layer and two layers of higher modulus material being adhered to the core material, the core being sandwiched between the higher modulus layers. The damping material can be further augmented by adhering an additional layer of material exterior to the higher modulus materials if necessary and as needed for the specific application, be it cosmetic, environmental (if resistance to chemical is needed, for example), etc. The damping material can be used for preparing a reinforced composite material which comprises at least one basic multi-layer structure comprising higher modulus material/high modulus panel structure with the layers being bonded with adhesive compatible with both core and outer layer materials and the application where the panel section is used, such as chemical resistance, high heat resistance, etc. If an additional exterior layer is used, the bonding agent must be suitable for that material as well. The resultant structure exhibits extremely high rigidity and vibration damping properties, and may be used as a free standing isolation platform such as a table top, platform or base, for electrical devices, instruments, or any device, object or matter that is affected by external vibration. The materials may alternatively or additionally be used as structural members such as chassis within such devices, instruments, objects or matter, or may be alternatively or additionally utilized as substructures within such instruments, devices, objects or matter. The material may also be used in or in association with acoustical instruments or any other device that is subject to external vibration.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method is disclosed for providing a controlled separation of a structure that has been screened from the screening mask. A dampener pad floats with the mask as the screened structure is being separated from the mask. The mask is held in place by the dampener pad while the structure completely separates from the mask. The dampener pad assembly, then, in a controlled manner, brings the mask back to the original position, and the mask is then ready for the next screening operation.

A mounting structure includes a bonding material (106) that bonds second electrodes (104) of a circuit board (105) and bumps (103) of a semiconductor package (101), the bonding material (106) being surrounded by a first reinforcing resin (107). Moreover, a portion between the outer periphery of the semiconductor package (101) and the circuit board (105) is covered with a second reinforcing resin (108). Even if the bonding material (106) is a solder material having a lower melting point than a conventional bonding material, high drop resistance is obtained.
Abstract:
A compliant interconnect with a cylindrical bellows structure is configured to reduce a stress between a substrate and a PCB board. The stress can be caused by a CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) mismatch, a physical movement, or a combination thereof. The compliant interconnect can be solder to and/or immobilized on one or more coupling structure. Alternatively, the compliant interconnect can include an instant swapping structure (such as a socket) that makes the upgrade of the electronic components easier.
