Abstract:
A printed board includes footprints which are electrically solder-bonded to a surface-mounting substrate, on which electronic components are mounted, and which assists the heat release from the surface-mounting substrate. The footprint comprises a fillet-forming division which is placed on an outer-edge side of the surface-mounting substrate and where solder is supplied independently when solder-bonding is performed. The fillet-forming division is solder-bonded to the same electrode as the electrode of the surface-mounting substrate to which the footprint is solder-bonded.

Abstract:
A computer program for balancing power plane pin currents in a printed wiring board (PWB) provides for reduction in pin counts required for power plane (including ground plane) connections and/or reduction in requirements for connector current handling per pin. One or more slots is introduced in the metal layer implementing the power plane that alter the current distribution in the power plane. The per-pin current profile for connector pins connected to the power plane is equalized by tuning the length of the slot(s). The slots may be dashed or made internal to the power plane metal layer to avoid weakening the metal layer for laminated multi-layer PWBs and may be shaped around a connector end when the power plane pin allocation is not uniform at the connector ends. The resulting equalization reduces either pin count required for carrying the power plane current or reduces connector pin current requirements.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for accessing a high speed signal routed on a conductive trace on an internal layer of a printed circuit board (PCB) using high density interconnect (HDI technology) are provided. The conductive trace may be coupled to a microvia (μVia) having a conductive dome disposed above the outer layer pad of the μVia. In-circuit test (ICT) fixtures or high speed test probes may interface with the conductive dome to test the high speed signal with decreased reflection loss and other parasitic effects when compared to conventional test points utilizing plated through-hole (PTH) technology.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a bonding structure of circuit substrates for instant circuit inspecting. The contact pad design of the bonding structure has an instant inspection ability of circuit connection in bonding two circuit substrates. In two bonded circuit substrates, the signal inputted at the circuit part passes the conductive particles to the first contact pad, and then passes the conductive particles again to the detecting part from the first contact pad. Therefore, measuring the output signal can inspect the reliability of the circuit connection of the bonded circuit substrates. If the output signal is the same as the input signal, the bonding structure between the first contact pad and the circuit part is validated, or, if not, the bonding structure is invalidated.
