Abstract:
A PCB underneath the display panel includes a plurality of insulation layers and one or more metal layers disposed between two adjacent insulation layers out of the plurality of insulation layers. A lower structure is disposed between the display panel and the PCB. At least a portion of a metal layer among the one or more metal layers that is most adjacent to the lower structure is exposed, and the lower structure is electrically connected to the exposed portion of the metal layer. Such exposed portion of the metal layer is electrically connected to the lower structure, so that the area where the PCB is referenced to the ground potential is increased. As a result, residual voltage, residual current in the PCB and noise caused by electromagnetic fields generated thereby can be reduced.

The conductive contact pads and the conductive pattern are disposed on the circuit board. The conductive contact pads are electrically insulated from one another. The conductive pattern is electrically insulated from the conductive contact pads. The conductive pattern is disposed on at least three sides of the conductive contact pads so as to generate an electrostatic discharge protection effect for the conductive contact pads.
Abstract:
An edge plated printed circuit board (PCB) improves radiated emission performance by enhancing ground shielding on the PCB and improving the physical and electrical connection between the PCB and external EMI suppression components including an EMI chassis and gaskets. Inner ground layers within a multi-layer PCB are configured to physically extend to an edge of the PCB, which is plated using copper electroplating, so that copper ground strips disposed at the top and bottom surfaces of the PCB and the inner ground layers are all electrically coupled to the plated edge. In some embodiments, the ground strips can be made thinner compared to conventional arrangements, or be eliminated altogether as a result of the direct connection between the edge plated PCB and external EMI shields.
