Abstract:
The present invention provides a light emitting diode(s), LED, light strip arranged for providing improved color consistency over its length. The LED light strip comprises LED strings positioned along the length of the LED light strip and powered in parallel, for emitting, for example, red, green, blue and white light. The resistance of the supply and return traces, in combination with variations in the current drawn by or the forward voltage of the various LED and resistors used in the LED strings of different color, causes a voltage drop along these traces leading to inconsistent color rendering. By adjusting the resistivity of the traces, such as through providing return paths having different resistances for LED strings of different color, the consistency of the color rendering can be improved.

Abstract:
A conductive trace design is described that minimizes the possibility of crack initiation and propagation in conductive traces during bending. The conductive trace design has a winding trace pattern that is more resistant to the formation of cracks at high stress points in the conductive traces. The conductive trace design includes a cap that helps ensure electrical connection of the conductive trace even though one or more cracks may begin to form in the conductive portion of the conductive trace.

A wiring board including: a board; a differential transmission line which is constituted by two wirings disposed on the board in parallel; an insulation resin layer which is formed on part of a face of the board, wherein a stepped portion constituted by a lateral face of the insulation resin layer is formed at a boundary between the face of the board and a top face of the insulation resin layer, the two wirings extend from the face of the board to the top face of the insulation resin layer so as to traverse the stepped portion, and the extending direction of the wirings traversing the stepped portion and the direction of a periphery are perpendicular to each other in a plan view of the board, the periphery being defined by a boundary between the top face of the insulation resin layer and the lateral face of the insulation resin layer constituting the stepped portion.
Abstract:
An apparatus for conveying an electrical signal includes: a conductive pathway having a conductive material. The conductive material has a first edge and a second edge and is configured to convey the electrical signal. The apparatus also includes a resistive material in contact with at least a portion of the conductive pathway, covering an edge of the conductive pathway, and extending beyond the edge. The resistive material has a conductivity less than the conductivity of the conductive material.
Abstract:
A transmission line is provided in which a first portion of the transmission line is configured to be connected to a source, and a second portion of the transmission line is configured to be connected to a load. A capacitive element is coupled to the transmission line and is configured to compensate for an impedance difference between the load and at least one of the source or the transmission line, at a frequency within a frequency bandwidth of the load. A difference between an internal capacitance of the first portion of the transmission line and the second portion of the transmission line substantially matches the capacitance of the capacitive element.
