摘要:
A method of mounting an electronic component on a substrate includes forming at least one trench in a surface of the substrate. The trenches formed in the substrate reduce a stiffness of the substrate, which provides less resistance to shear. Accordingly, the trenches reduce the amount of strain on the joints, which mount the electronic component to the substrate, which enhances the life of the joints.

A microelectronic device is made of a semiconductor substrate, a heat generating component in a layer thereof, and a body within the remaining semiconductor substrate. The body is made of materials which have a high thermal inertia and/or thermal conductivity. When high thermal conductivity materials are used, the body acts to transfer the heat away from the substrate to a heat sink.

A method and system for utilizing a digital filter for actuator positioning control in a disk device. In accordance with the method and system of the present invention multiple selectable filter modules are provided. Each of the multiple selectable filter modules functions in a serial or parallel filtering mode when selected. Multiple configurable registers are also provided wherein the configuration of each of the multiple configurable registers determines a selection of at least one of the multiple selectable filter modules. Particular ones of the multiple configurable registers are selected, such that a configuration of the digital filter is dynamically selectable in order to achieve a predetermined filter output.
