Abstract:
A light emitting device, in which an encapsulation resin is disposed at a space confined between an optical member and a mounting substrate. This encapsulation resin is possibly made free from a void-generation therein. In this light emitting device, the optical member can be precisely positioned. An electrode disposed outside a color conversion member is possibly free from an improper solder connection. A ring gate is formed on the top surface of the mounting substrate outside of the optical member, and acts to position the color conversion member. The ring gate acts to prevent an overflowing liquid encapsulation resin from flowing to the electrode provided. The ring gate is provided with a plurality of centering projections which are spaced circumferentially along its inner circumference to position the color conversion member.

Abstract:
A method of constructing an image reader module and the image reader are described. The image reader module includes two or more circuit boards in a stacked configuration. Corresponding notches for receiving supports are formed along adjacent edges of the boards, which also have electrical contact points at the edges of each board connected to circuits on the boards. The supports are mounted in the notches between the two or more circuit boards to structurally interconnect the boards. Each of the supports, which may be flex cables or conductive bus bars, have one or more electrical conductors that are electrically connected to the contact points on the boards to electrically interconnect the boards, whereby the connections between the electrical conductors and the contact points form test points for the module. The notches may be substantially rectangular to receive the flex cable or may be slots to receive a bus bar. One end of the structural support flex cable or bus bar may be flush with one of the circuit boards and the other end of the structural support may extend past another one of the circuit boards. The supports may be soldered to the edges of the boards within the notches, which may be initially plated. In the image reader module an image sensor may be located on one of the circuit boards and an illumination assembly may be located on another of the circuit boards.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a circuit board assembly for a controller. The method includes providing first and second printed circuit boards wherein the first printed circuit board has a plurality of copper pads containing slots therein that correspond to a plurality of power tabs in the second printed circuit board. The power tabs are then slid into the slots and the tabs are flooded with copper. At this time the power tabs are soldered within the slots to provide an electrical connection between the first and second printed circuit boards that allows for the transfer of current between the boards of more than three amps.
