Abstract:
A motherboard includes a first memory, a power supply, a jumper, a second memory slot and a conversion board. A first idle pin of the second memory slot is coupled to the power supply through the jumper. The motherboard supplies power to the first memory and ensures communication with the first memory by virtue of the conversion board. A conversion board is also provided.
Abstract:
A system on package SoP module includes a printed circuit board (PCB) having a first side and an opposing second side, a first IC attached to the first side, a second IC attached to the second side. The PCB also provides electrical paths for connecting the first IC and the second IC. Conductors by which the second IC is attached to the PCB also allow for electrical testing of the first IC when the SoP is in a system level state.
Abstract:
In one implementation, flash memory chips are provided with an operating power supply voltage to substantially match a power supply voltage expected at an edge connector of a dual inline memory module. The one or more of the flash memory chips and a memory support application integrated circuit (ASIC) may be mounted together into a multi-chip package for integrated circuits. The one or more flash memory chips and the memory support ASIC may be electrically coupled together by routing one or more conductors between each in the multi-chip package. The multi-chip package may be mounted onto a printed circuit board (PCB) of a flash memory DIMM to reduce the number of packages mounted thereto and reduce the height of the flash memory DIMM. The number of printed circuit board layers may also be reduced, such as by integrating address functions into the memory support ASIC.

A printed circuit board (PCB) having a PCB connector is selectively connectable to the midplane connector. A plurality of data storage devices are arranged on the printed circuit board in a staggered pattern, each electrically connected to the PCB connector via a respective electrical trace in the PCB.
Abstract:
A microelectronic package has a dielectric element with first and second parallel apertures. A first microelectronic element has contacts overlying the first aperture, and a second microelectronic element has contacts overlying the second aperture. The second microelectronic element can overlie a rear face of the first microelectronic element and the same surface of the dielectric element as the first microelectronic element. First terminals on a second surface of the dielectric element between said first and second apertures can be configured to carry all data signals for read and write access to memory locations within the first and second microelectronic elements.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed toward techniques and configurations for electrical signal absorption in an interconnect disposed in a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly. In one instance, a PCB assembly may comprise a substrate, and an interconnect formed in the substrate to route an electrical signal within the PCB. The interconnect may be coupled with a connecting component that is disposed on a surface of the PCB. An absorbing material may be disposed on the PCB to be in direct contact with at least a portion of the connecting component to at least partially absorb a portion of the electrical signal. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
A circuit board that is to be mounted in a connector socket includes a plurality of electrical connectors located along a side edge of the circuit board. Retention bosses are formed on first and second opposite sides of the circuit board, each of the retention bosses protruding from a surface of the circuit board and extending parallel to and adjacent to the first edge of the circuit board. When the first edge of the circuit board is inserted into a slot of a connector socket, contact surfaces of the first and second retention bosses contact top surfaces of the connector socket to help immobilize the circuit board with respect to the connector socket. Adhesive layers on the contact surfaces of the first and second retention bosses may adhere to the top surfaces of the connector socket to help hold the circuit board immobile with respect to the connector socket.
Abstract:
A Ball Grid Array (BGA) formed on printed circuit board is provided. The BGA comprises a first solder ball module and a second solder ball module. The first solder ball module comprises a plurality of first solder balls, wherein one of the first solder balls is grounded for shielding two other first solder balls, and one of the first solder balls is floating. The second solder ball module comprises a plurality of second solder balls, wherein two of the second solder balls are grounded and one of the two grounded second solder balls penetrates the printed circuit board through a plated through hole formed on the printed circuit board for shielding two first solder balls among the first solder balls.
Abstract:
A motherboard includes a main wiring as a transmission line for a signal transmitted by a memory controller, and a branching wiring branched from a branching point of the main wiring and connected to the memory device. Furthermore, the motherboard includes a branching wiring including a land to which a memory device may be joined and branched from a branching point, and an open stub formed extending from the land. According to such a structure, ringing in the waveform of a signal received by the receiving circuit may be suppressed at the time of both single-side mounting and double-side mounting, and also, ringing of a signal may be sufficiently suppressed in the case where the number of DIMMs used by the same substrate is changed.
