Abstract: A device for testing remote controls includes a main board, a data acquisition module (DAM), and one or more testing components. The main board communicates a testing instruction to the testing components which, then provide stimuli to a remote under test (RUT). The DAM receives, from the testing components, result data indicative of reaction(s) by the RUT to the stimuli. At least one of the stimuli is provided to the RUT and the result data is received by the DAM from the testing components. A first testing component provides a first stimuli to the RUT substantially simultaneously with a second testing component providing a second stimuli to the RUT. The first stimuli may include an acceleration of the RUT and the second stimuli may emulate a user action. The emulated user action emulates a button press, a button release, an audible input, and a touch screen action.

Abstract: A heat transfer assembly includes a heat plate coupled to a spring and to a graphite sheet. The spring is at first location corresponding to a heat source in an assembled device. The graphite sheet extends over at least a middle portion of the spring and over portions of the heat plate. The graphite sheet is coupled to a thermal pad positioned above a given surface of the heat source. The spring provides a compressive force on the thermal pad when the device is in an assembled state. The compressive force enhances thermal conductivity between the heat source and the heat transfer assembly. The heat plate may be positioned within and thermally coupled to a cover of the device. Principally by use of the thermal pad, graphite sheet, and thermal plate, heat generated by the heat source is transferred to the cover and then to the external environment.
