Abstract:
A flash-memory device has a printed-circuit board assembly (PCBA) with a PCB with a flash-memory chip and a controller chip. The controller chip includes an external Secure-Digital (SD) interface, and a processing unit to read blocks of data from the flash-memory chip. The PCBA is encased inside an upper case and a lower case, with SD contact pads on the PCB that fit through contact openings in the upper case. Dividers between openings in the upper case that expose the SD contact pads also support the PCB at a slanted angle to the centerline of the device. The PCB slants upward at the far end to allow more thickness for the chips mounted to the bottom surface of the PCB, and slants downward at the insertion end to position the SD contact pads near the centerline. A metal switch-bar or an over-molded controller die may be substituted.
Abstract:
Plates having a predetermined pattern are provided in each frame, side by side, at certain intervals along the longitudinal direction of the frame. A plurality of positioning holes, into which pins are inserted, are formed in each frame. A retainer portion is provided so as to extend from the inner periphery of each positioning hole and is plastically deformed when a pin is inserted thereinto. By inserting a pin into each positioning hole while a plurality of frames are stacked, the outer periphery of the pin contacts the retainer portion of each positioning hole. The retainer portion is deformed to correct misalignment among a plurality of plates.

A circuit board assembly includes a circuit board, at least a conductive contact and a metal shielding device. The conductive contact is extended from a lateral edge of the circuit board and is electrically connected to the circuit board. The circuit board and the conductive contact are received in the metal shielding device with the conductive contact electrically connected to the metal shielding device. The conductive contact tightly contacts with the metal shielding device by the elasticity of the conductive contact, and the circuit board assembly can remove a static using the metal shielding device and avoid the contact failure. In addition, the conductive contact can be manufactured in manufacturing of the circuit board, the man-hour and human for affixing the conduct foam is leave out and cost is decreased.

The spacer is arranged between the one resin film and an adjacent resin film and is disposed at a base portion of one of the protruding members.
Abstract:
A first plating foundation layer is formed by printing on a front face of a sheet-shaped insulating substrate. By inserting a punch into the sheet-shaped insulating substrate having the first plating foundation layer, a through hole is formed while leaving a piece having the plating foundation layer in the portion where the punch is inserted. A second plating foundation layer is formed by printing on a rear face of the sheet-shaped insulating substrate. A first and second wiring layers composed of a metal plating layer are formed by performing electroless plating, and at the same time, a metal plating layer connecting between the first and second wiring layers is formed in the through hole using the plating foundation layer on the piece.

The present invention provides a system and method for combining a leaded package IC and a semiconductor die using a flex circuitry to reduce footprint for the combination. A leaded IC package is disposed along the obverse side of a flex circuit. In a preferred embodiment, leads of the leaded IC package are configured to allow the lower surface of the body of the leaded IC package to contact the surface of the flex circuitry either directly or indirectly through an adhesive. A semiconductor die is connected to the reverse side of the flex circuit. In one embodiment, the semiconductor die is disposed on the reverse side of the flex while, in an alternative embodiment, the semiconductor die is disposed into a window in the flex circuit to rest directly or indirectly upon the body of the leaded IC package. Module contacts are provided in a variety of configurations. In a preferred embodiment, the leaded IC package is a flash memory and the semiconductor die is a controller.
Abstract:
A process is described for form locking joining of two components through plastic deformation of one of the two components. In order for the tool for forming the form locking connection not to get in direct contact with the plasticized area of the joining partners, a third component between the tool and the two components to be joined through form locking is being used, which simultaneously enters into an adhesive bond with one of the two components to be joined through form locking. The thermal energy for creating the plastic state of one of the joining partners and for developing the adhesive bond is applied through electromagnetic radiation through the third component.
