Abstract:
A surface mountable leadless fuse generally includes a tubular fuse sub-assembly with an insulating body molded thereto in intimate sealing relation. The tubular fuse sub-assembly includes a nonconductive tubular housing, cup-shaped metal end caps enclosing the housing. The insulating body includes an upper and lower portion which are integral as molded. The end caps protrude from a bottom surface of the insulating body so that the fuse can engage the flat conductive areas of a circuit board for soldering thereto without obstructiion of the insulting body. The end caps also protrude from the end surfaces so that visual inspection and solder wetting are unobstructed. The lower portion of the insulating body covers an exposed portion of the tubular housing. A pair of anti-rolling legs depend from opposed margins of the bottom surface to prevent the fuse from rolling off of the circuit board once placed there.
Abstract:
A composite bead element comprises a chip-like magnetic body in a shape of a nearly rectangular parellelepiped in which a recess is provided, at least one feed-through holes formed in said body and an electronic component inserted in said recess. Bead inductors are formed by conductors provided in said feed-through holes, and said electronic component and said conductors are connected by predetermined conductors on a surface of said body.
Abstract:
A connection structure of circuit members includes a first circuit member, a second circuit member, and a joint portion. The first circuit member has a first main surface on which a light-transparent electrode is provided. The second circuit member has a second main surface on which a metal electrode is provided. The joint portion is interposed between the first main surface and the second main surface. The joint portion includes a resin portion and a solder portion. The solder portion electrically connects the light-transparent electrode and the metal electrode. The light-transparent electrode contains an oxide that includes indium and tin, and the solder portion contains bismuth and indium.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a printed circuit board arrangement and a method for forming an electrical connection at a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board arrangement comprises a printed circuit board having an electrical connection electrically connecting a first conductive layer on a first side of the printed circuit board and a second conductive layer on a second side of the printed circuit board. The electrical connection comprises a passage extending from an opening in one of the sides of the printed circuit board through the printed circuit board between the first and second layers. Electrically conducting material is formed on the walls of the passage and forms a first path electrically connecting the first conductive layer with the second conductive layer. At least one first ball is enclosed by the passage and forms part of a second electrical path between the first and second conductive layers of the printed circuit board, said second electrical path having a lower resistance than the first path.
Abstract:
Ophthalmic lenses, including contact lenses may be enhanced through the incorporation of both active and passive electrical components. Electrical interconnects and die attachment configurations are required to ensure electrical connectivity between the components and the optic portion of the lens as well as providing a means for mounting planar devices on spherical surfaces. Electrical interconnects and die attachment for powered ophthalmic devices, including contact lenses includes realizing conductive traces on optical plastic, attaching planar dies to spherical surfaces and underfilling, overmolding and light blocking to complete the lens.
Abstract:
A tube installation of a backlight module allowing fast and easy assembly and disassembly of tube without depending on a soldering process is comprised of a substrate, multiple tubes and a locating means; a terminal of each tube being provided with a conductor comprised of a first bending portion and a second bending portion with a terminal of the second bending portion serving as a contact portion; the locating means being placed below the substrate for the contact portion to contact the substrate so to secure the tube to where above the substrate.
Abstract:
A device, apparatus and printed circuit board assembly for removably coupling an electrical component with a PCB are described, which provides adequate electromechanical capability, is relatively insensitive to related heating, component removability, replacability and reworkability while minimizing wear and the possibility of resizing and damage. The device includes a sleeve for coupling with a component pin, which encloses the pin and further couples to a conductive barrel interconnecting multiple PCB layers. The sleeve conforms upon insertion within the barrel to its contour. A flange at an end of the sleeve deters over-insertion. The coupling so formed can be gas-tight.
