Abstract:
Electronics modules and methods of making electronics modules are provided. An electronics module includes a substrate having an electronic circuit mounted thereon, a lens mount affixed to the substrate, the lens mount having a lens assembly mounted therein, and a liquid crystal cell affixed to the lens mount over the lens assembly, the liquid crystal cell having electrical terminals, wherein the lens mount includes adhesive containment pockets that are filled with a conductive adhesive so as to contact the electrical terminals of the liquid crystal cell, wherein the adhesive containment pockets include contacts that are electrically connected to the substrate. In some embodiments, the electronics module is a camera module.
Abstract:
Described herein are various embodiments of contacts that include different portions angled with respect to one another and methods of manufacturing devices that include such contacts. In some embodiments, a module may include a first portion of a contact that is disposed within a housing and a second portion that is disposed outside of the housing, with the second portion angled with respect to the first portion. Manufacturing such devices may include depositing a conductive material to electrically connect the contact to a contact pad of a substrate. In some embodiments, a deposition process for depositing the conductive material may have a minimum dimension, which defines a minimum dimension of a conductive material once deposited. In some such embodiments, a distance between a terminal end of the contact pin and the contact pad may be greater than the minimum dimension of the deposition process.
