    Abstract: Protection structures may be provided to protect connectors, printed circuits, and other internal device components from damage. Components may shift within a device if the device is unexpectedly dropped. Protection structures can shield printed circuit connectors and other structures so that component movement during a drop event does not dislodge a printed circuit connector or otherwise damage a device. A cowling can be used to hold a board-to-board connector or other connector together. The cowling may have a protruding portion that is bent to form a protective wall. Plastic structures may be molded onto the cowling to form protective walls. Protection structures for printed circuit connectors and other internal device components may be formed from spring-based structures that clip onto the edge of a printed circuit board.

    Abstract: A flexible flat cable connecting structure for connecting a flexible flat cable in which a plurality of rectangular conductors are provided in parallel and a plurality of connector terminals arranged at an array pitch different from that of the rectangular conductors comprises an intermediate cable arranging member one end of which is coupled to the connector terminals and in which a plurality of branch conductors are provided in parallel which are set to have mutually different longitudinal dimensions according to the array pitch. The intermediate cable arranging member is laid on the flexible flat cable so that the intermediate cable arranging member and the flexible flat cable are in the same plane and form an angle. The other ends of the branch conductors of the intermediate cable arranging member are connected to the respective rectangular conductors.

    Abstract: Flexible circuitry is populated with integrated circuitry disposed along one or both of its major sides. Contacts distributed along the flexible circuitry provide connection between the module and an application environment. The circuit-populated flexible circuitry is disposed about an edge of a rigid substrate thus placing the integrated circuitry on one or both sides of the substrate with one or two layers of integrated circuitry on one or both sides of the substrate. The substrate form is preferably devised from thermally conductive materials and includes a high thermal conductivity core or area that is disposed proximal to higher thermal energy devices such as an AMB when the flex circuit is brought about the substrate. Other variations include thermally-conductive clips that grasp respective ICs on opposite sides of the module to further shunt heat from the ICs. Preferred extensions from the substrate body or substrate core encourage reduced thermal variations amongst the integrated circuits of the module.

    Abstract: Memory module flex circuitry is devised to accommodate packaged integrated circuit devices (ICs) of varying heights or thicknesses. The invention may be employed to advantage in a variety of modules that employ flex circuitry including, but not limited to, fully-buffered, registered or more simple memory modules. Many such modules may replace conventionally-constructed DIMMs without change to the system in which the module is employed. Regions of the flex circuitry devised to provide one or more mounting locales for ICs are delineated, in part, from the main body of the flex circuit. The delineation may be implemented in a preferred embodiment by separating a designated IC mounting area or peninsula from the main body of the flex circuitry either with isolating areas or separations or with tabs that extend from the primary perimeter of the flex circuitry.
