摘要:
A detachable, logic leaf module having dendritic projections on a surface is connected to a recessed area on the surface of a cluster interface board. The projections are used for electrically connecting the logic module device to the cluster interface board or the like, the projections on the surface of the logic leaf being flexibly and conductively wired to the receiving area on the surface of the cluster interface board. The logic leaf connector is removable without the need for solder softening thermal cycles or special tools, and permits the simple removal or replacement of an individual leaf at any time.

A spring actuated clamping mechanism has a backer plate with an upper surface and a lower surface. A set of apertures is formed along the periphery of the backer plate. The upper surface of the backer plate has at least one backer plate recess, and preferably four recesses, formed therein. A threaded aperture is also formed in the backer plate. A compression plate is also provided. A second set of apertures is formed along the periphery of the compression plate. The lower surface of the compression plate has at least one compression plate recess, and at least one compression plate aperture. At least one compression spring is disposed between the backer plate and the compression plate. A screw tension release mechanism is screwed into the backer plate threaded aperture and inserted through the compression plate aperture. When the release mechanism is loosened, backer plate is forced downwardly, applying a uniform force to all electrical contacts on the printed circuit board or card to which the clamping mechanism is attached.

A pinned interposer and mating sockets to facilitate removable mounting of high connection density micro devices between a pair of substrates in compact electronic circuit packages. The pinned interposer has an inner set of contacts, typically in a rectangular array, that, in cooperation with a mating socket, allows pluggable connection of a micro device such as a MEMS device connected to a first printed circuit substrate. An outer set of contacts on the interposer provides electrical interconnection between the first substrate and a second substrate located atop the high connection density micro device, thereby effectively sandwiching the micro device between the first and second substrates. The outer set of contacts may be disposed in a circular array.
摘要:
An electrical assembly which includes a circuitized substrate including a first plurality of dielectric and electrically conductive circuit layers alternatively oriented in a stacked orientation, a thermal cooling structure bonded to one of the dielectric layers and at least one electrical component mounted on the circuitized substrate. The circuitized substrate includes a plurality of electrically conductive and thermally conductive thru-holes located therein, selected ones of the thermally conductive thru-holes thermally coupled to the electrical component(s) and extending through the first plurality of dielectric and electrically conductive circuit layers and being thermally coupled to the thermal cooling structure, each of these selected ones of thermally conductive thru-holes providing a thermal path from the electrical component to the thermal cooling structure during assembly operation. The thermal cooling structure is adapted for having cooling fluid pass there-through during operation of the assembly. A method of making the substrate is also provided.

An LED lighting assembly including a plurality of individual LEDs mounted on a common, bendable heat sinking member designed to remove heat from the LEDs during operation and also to be formed (bent) to provide the desired light direction and intensity. Several such assemblies may be used within an LED lamp, as also provided herein. The lamp is ideal for use within medical and dental environments to assure optimal light onto a patient located at a specified distance from the lamp.
摘要:
A circuitized substrate including a plurality of conductive and dielectric layers and also a plurality of conductive thru-holes therein for passing high speed signals, e.g., from one component to another mounted on the substrate. The substrate utilizes a signal routing pattern which uses the maximum length of each of the thru-holes wherever possible to thereby substantially eliminate signal loss (noise) due to thru-hole “stub” resonance. A multilayered circuitized substrate assembly using more than one circuitized substrate, an electrical assembly using a circuitized substrate and one or more electrical components, a method of making the circuitized substrate and an information handling system incorporating one or more circuitized substrate assemblies and attached components are also provided.
摘要:
An interposer for connecting two circuit members. The interposer has two extending conductive ends, is “Z” shaped, and has a center of gravity positioned relative to one of the conductive ends such that the interposer is capable of standing upright upon that end without external support. The interposer may be composed of a plated metal, and at least one of the extending conductive ends may have deposited dendrites or a raised bump. The Z-shaped interposer prevents bowing or cracking of the connected structure which otherwise occurs during use due to the different thermal coefficients of expansion of the two circuit members.
摘要:
An electronic package including a base member and associated cover member designed for being positioned together to compress at least two circuitized substrates (e.g., a ceramic substrate and a plurality of flexible substrates) positioned therein. One of the substrates is substantially rigid and is positively positioned in a protected, aligned manner within the base. Additionally, the flexible substrates are precisely aligned and initially secured to the rigid substrate, the invention further using yet another resilient means to act against each of the flexible substrates when the packages are fully assembled. The cover is secured to the base to effect final compression of the internal elements. This package may be positioned on and electrically coupled to another circuitized substrate, e.g., PCB.
摘要:
A multilayer capable electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) mixture for connecting multilevel Z-axis interconnects and a method of forming the ECA for connecting multilevel Z-axis interconnects. The multilayer capable ECA contains a mixture of constituent components that allow the paste to be adapted to specific requirements wherein the method of making a circuitized substrate assembly in which two or more subassemblies having potentially disparate coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) are aligned and Z-axis interconnection are created during bonding. The metallurgies of the conductors, and those of a multilayer capable conductive paste, are effectively mixed and the flowable interim dielectric used between the mating subassemblies flows to engage and surround the conductor coupling.
摘要:
Sampling sufficiency determinations are performed using probability calculations and statistical analysis during a testing process of a population of items. For example, an auditing or reviewing process may involve testing a predetermined sample set of items from the population in order to draw statistical conclusions about the passing or failing rate of the population as a whole. During an ongoing testing process, probability calculations and statistical analyses may be performed regarding the likelihood of the population to pass or fail according to an acceptable failure rate, based on the test results of a subset of the sample set. The sampling sufficiency analyses may potentially allow determinations that the testing process may be stopped before the complete testing of the sample set, and that the population may be declared a passing or failing population within a desired level of confidence.
