    Abstract: An apparatus is described for selectively depositing a continuous stripe of one type of material on a strip of another type of material as the strip is transported through the apparatus on a pair of spaced rails. The rails are provided for supporting the strip along its lateral edges. A weight or pressure in the form of a movable member is carried on the strip between tape-guiding means for forming a fluid-tight seal between the lateral edges of the strip and the rails. A plurality of fluid jets are provided in a line between the rails for jetting fluid against the strip. At opposite ends of the line of jets there is provided at least one fluid jet for jetting fluid inwardly against the back-spray of fluid from the strip for preventing the escape of spent fluid from between the rails and preventing plating in unwanted areas. Means are also provided for changing the width and position of the stripe on the strip by changing the relative position of the rails and strip-guiding means. For the electrodeposition of metal stripes, an electrode in the form of a wire mesh screen is employed between the jets and strip with means provided for providing an electrical potential between the screen and the strip.

    Abstract: A novel plated lead frame strip and a novel method and apparatus for selectively plating the strip is described. The strip comprises a plurality of identical lead frame sections. Each of the lead frame sections comprises a plurality of leads. Each lead has a lead tip. In the center of each section and surrounded by the lead tips is a die-attach pad. The apparatus comprises in combination three plating stations. Each of the three stations is provided for plating a predetermined part of each of the lead frame sections. In the first station, a means is provided for plating the tips and the pad of a lead frame section with a first predetermined metallic plating -- e.g., a gold or copper strike. In the second station, a means is provided for masking the tips and plating the pad only with a second predetermined metallic plating -- e.g., a gold finish. In the third station, a means is provided for masking the pad and plating the tips with a third predetermined metallic plating -- e.g., silver. The stations are arranged in such a fashion that all three may be plating simultaneously with each one plating its respective part in the desired plating sequence.

    Abstract: A heading determination system comprises an inertial measurement unit (IMU) coupled with at least two GNSS receivers, each receiver paired with and receiving signals from a corresponding GNSS antenna, wherein the GNSS antennas are separated by an ultra-short baseline. The heading determination system receives signals broadcast by a plurality of GNSS satellites and calculates the phase difference in the signal seen among the separate GNSS antennas. Using this phase difference information, derived from comparing the signals received from a plurality of GNSS satellites, along with attitude data generated by the IMU, the heading determination system calculates a highly-accurate heading solution. A method is provided for determining a heading of a system including an IMU coupled with at least two GNSS receivers, with each receiver being paired with and receiving signals from a corresponding GNSS antenna and the antennas being separated by an ultra-short baseline.
