Abstract:
An electronic assembly having a first component, a second component, and a layer of adhesive bonding the first and second components together, one or both of the first and second components includes thinned or tapered peripheral edges. The layer of adhesive includes a thickened portion which is adjacent to the thinned or tapered peripheral edges, the thickened portion having a thickness which is greater than the thickness of the remaining portion of the layer.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board is provided having a beveled edge for ease of insertion into a receptor. The beveled edge is extended onto the solder mask to present a contiguous beveled surface. Moreover, the PCB includes bonding pads which can be surface mounted with pins extending from the receptor. Each bonding pad includes a forward portion and a rearward portion. The forward portion is covered with the solder mask layer to present a smooth surface channeled inward in a V-shaped configuration. The forward portion channels or directs the pin along a central axis near the apex of the V-shaped forward portion onto the upper surface of the bonding pad rearward portion. Accordingly, the pin is channeled to an area absent solder paste along the central axis such that during subsequent reflow operation the solder paste is reliably extended over and around the centrally placed pin.
Abstract:
A process and device for subdivision of a continuously fabricated metal backed laminate web into individual panels of any size, uses a computer and a numerically controlled saw. A contour path is controlled by the computer. A saw blade of the saw located in the saw head has a side support at the severance edges to be cut. This side support contains small cutter plates which are applied with one of their side faces against the saw blade with slight pressure. Each support has an additional narrow edge surface which is held against the metal backed laminate web. For trimming pressed edges of the web that are cured without pressure, fixed circular saws with their own side supports are arranged at the edge of the metal backed laminate web, upstream of the saw head.
Abstract:
A high density printed circuit board carrying integrated circuits or the like is provided with two parallel rows of terminals along one edge on both sides of the board. The terminals in the outer row of terminals closest to the edge of the board are connected to printed circuits on inner layers of the multiple layer printed circuit board by plated-through holes or other suitable techniques; and the printed circuits on the outer layer or layers are connected to the inner row of terminals spaced just inside the outer row of terminals. A circuit board connector is provided with spring contacts which are electrically insulated from one another but which are designed to engage the multiple layer printed circuit board at the position of the first and second rows of terminals. The spring contacts engaging the inner row of terminals on the circuit board are longer in length than those engaging the outer row of terminals, and are thus easily deflected so that the P.C. board may be inserted or removed from the connector without excessive force.

A device substrate includes a circuit substrate and a side wiring structure. The circuit substrate includes a substrate and a front circuit structure on a front side of the substrate. The side wiring structure is electrically connected to the front circuit structure and extends from the front circuit structure to a back side of the circuit substrate. A cross-sectional structure of the side wiring structure includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion respectively located above a front side, a side surface, and the back side of the circuit substrate. The first, second, and third portions each include streaks. A ratio of a maximum thickness of the first portion to a maximum thickness of the second portion is A. A ratio of a maximum thickness of the third portion to the maximum thickness of the second portion is B. Each of A and B is 0.25-0.6.
Abstract:
A through-hole electrode substrate includes a substrate including a through-hole extending from a first aperture of a first surface to a second aperture of a second surface, an area of the second aperture being larger than that of the first aperture, the through-hole having a minimum aperture part between the first aperture and the second aperture, wherein an area of the minimum aperture part in a planer view is smallest among a plurality of areas of the through-hole in a planer view, a filler arranged within the through-hole, and at least one gas discharge member contacting the filler exposed to one of the first surface and the second surface.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a display device with a reduced bezel area and a method for fabricating the same. A wiring electrode disposed on a substrate is electrically connected to a connection electrode disposed on an inclined surface of a circuit board in contact with the substrate, and the connection electrode is electrically connected to a circuit wiring disposed on the circuit board. Therefore, an inactive area such as a pad portion for connecting the substrate with the circuit board is not required, such that the bezel area can be reduced.
