Abstract:
This application includes multiple embodiments related to capacitors. In some embodiments, capacitors are set forth as having terminal leads that extend in parallel and opposing axial directions. The embodiments discussed herein relate to a capacitor module including one or more anodized pellets for providing a charge storage within the capacitor module. The capacitor module can be configured as a surface mounted or non-surface mounted capacitor module. The capacitor module can include an array of anodized pellets arranged in multiple rows or columns of anodized pellets connected by conductive trace included in the capacitor module. In a non-surface mounted embodiment of the capacitor module, the capacitor module can include cathode and anode connections that are exclusively on the side surfaces of the capacitor module.
Abstract:
An electronic device may have a housing in which electronic components are mounted. The electronic components may be mounted to a substrate such as a printed circuit board. A heat sink structure may dissipate heat generated by the electronic components. The housing may have a housing wall that is separated from the heat sink structure by an air gap. The housing wall may have integral support structures. Each of the support structures may have an inwardly protruding portion that protrudes through a corresponding opening in the heat sink structure. The protruding portions may each have a longitudinal axis and a cylindrical cavity that lies along the longitudinal axis. Each of the support structures may have fins that extend radially outward from the longitudinal axis.
