Abstract:
An electronic unit (1) having a circuit board, PCB, (2) arranged to be mounted in a main housing (6, 7 and having a first housing part (6) and a second housing part (7), where the first housing part (6) is at least partly electrically conducting. The PCB (2) having a first outer layer (3), a second outer layer (4), and a ground plane (5). The first outer layer (3) faces the first housing part (6) and the second outer layer (4) faces the second housing part (7) The ground plane (5) is in electrical contact with the first housing part (6) forming a first chamber (29), facing the first outer layer (3), and a second chamber (30), facing the second outer layer (4). The chambers (29, 30) are separated by the ground plane (5), providing electromagnetic shielding between the chambers (29, 30).

Provided are systems and methods for a control assembly including: a first film that is in-molded that includes decorative graphics, a front surface and a rear surface; and a second film molded to the rear surface of the first film having a printed circuit that includes sensors, control circuits and interconnects and a front and rear surface; and an internal connector.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for an electronic panel assembly (EPA) (82, 83), comprising: providing one or more electronic devices (30) with primary faces (31) having electrical contacts (36), opposed rear faces (33) and edges (32) therebetween. The devices (30) are mounted primary faces (31) down on a temporary support (60) in openings (44) in a warp control sheet (WCS) (40) attached to the support (60). Plastic encapsulation (50) is formed at least between lateral edges (32, 43) of the devices (30) and WCS openings (44). Undesirable panel warping (76) during encapsulation is mitigated by choosing the WCS coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) to be less than the encapsulation CTE. After encapsulation cure, the EPA (82) containing the devices (30) and the WCS (40) is separated from the temporary support (60) and, optionally, mounted on another carrier (70) with electrical contacts (36) exposed. Thin film insulators (85) and conductors (87) are desirably applied to couple electrical contacts (36) on various devices (30) to each other and to external terminals (88), thereby forming an integrated multi-device EPA (84).

Abstract:
This publication discloses a circuit-board construction and a method for manufacturing an electronic module, in which method at least one component (6) is embedded inside an insulating-material layer (1) and contacts (14) are made to connect the component (6) electrically to the conductor structures (14, 19) contained in the electronic module. According to the invention, at least one thermal via (22), which boosts the conducting of heat away from the component (6) is manufactured in the insulating-material layer (1) in the vicinity of the component (6).
