    Abstract: Examples of electronic components and printed circuit board assemblies which may be configured for directional heat transport are described herein. A circuit board assembly according to the examples herein may include a plurality of stacked planar layers, including a signal layer with a plurality of signal traces, a ground layer separated from the signal layer using an insulating layer, and a plurality of heat sink traces extending from the ground layer through at least a portion of the thickness of the insulating layer, each of the plurality of heat sink traces being electrically insulated from the signal traces and coupled to ground. The circuit board assembly may further include one or more electronic components electrically coupled to the signal layer using one or more of the signal traces, with the heat sink traces arranged around the one or more electronic components such that heat is selectively directed from one location of the board (e.g. a heat source, or hotter one of a plurality of components) to another location of the board (e.g. a perimeter of the board, or off the board).

    Abstract: A control mechanism for an electronic device comprises a cover glass having an aperture defined therein. The aperture extends from an interior to an exterior of the device. A control member is positioned within the aperture, coupled to an actuator. The control member comprises a ceramic insert having a contact surface exposed to the exterior of the housing, operable to actuate the actuator in response to a force on the contact surface. A bearing member is molded about the insert. The bearing member has a hardness less than that of the ceramic insert, and less than that of the cover glass.

    Abstract: An electronic device may include a display and an enclosure. The enclosure may include a housing, a front cover coupled to the housing and comprising a front cover member positioned over the display, and a rear cover coupled to the housing and including a rear cover member. The rear cover member may be formed from a glass material including metal nanoparticles configured to impart color to the glass material and having a dielectric constant from 5.5 to 7.5 in a frequency band from 5 GHz to 45 GHz. The rear cover member may include a first portion defining a first thickness and characterized by a first color, and a second portion defining a second thickness, greater than the first thickness, and characterized by a second color, different from the first color.

    Abstract: Embodiments describe an apparatus for magnetic charging and optical data transferring. The apparatus includes an inductive transmitting coil disposed within a housing, an optically transparent window disposed at a surface of the housing and above the inductive transmitting coil, and a first optical data transfer module disposed within the housing below the optically transparent window. The first optical data transfer module may be to perform at least one of emitting optical signals through the optically transparent window or detecting optical signals passing through the optically transparent window.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for manufacturing composite parts that include anodizable portions and non-anodizable portions such that an interface between the anodizable portions and non-anodizable portions are free of visible defects are described. The non-anodizable portions can be made of anodizable metals such as aluminum or aluminum alloy. The non-anodizable portions are made of material that do not generally form an anodic film, such as plastic, ceramic or glass materials. In particular, the methods described relate to manufacturing methods that are compatible with anodizing processes and avoid defects related to anodizing processes. In particular embodiments, the methods involve avoiding trapping of anodizing chemicals within a gap between an anodizable portion and a non-anodizable portion, which prevents the anodizing chemicals from disrupting the uptake of dye in a post-anodizing dyeing process.

    Abstract translation: 描述了包括阳极化部分和非阳极氧化部分的复合部件的制造方法和系统,使得可阳极氧化部分和非阳极氧化部分之间的界面没有可见的缺陷。 非阳极氧化部分可以由诸如铝或铝合金的阳极化金属制成。 非阳极氧化部分由通常不形成阳极膜的材料制成,例如塑料,陶瓷或玻璃材料。 特别地,所描述的方法涉及与阳极氧化工艺兼容并避免与阳极氧化工艺相关的缺陷的制造方法。 在具体实施方案中,所述方法涉及避免在阳极氧化部分和非阳极化部分之间的间隙内捕获阳极化化学品,这防止阳极氧化化学品在后阳极氧化染色过程中破坏染料的吸收。
