摘要:
A system for delivering power to a processor enables a DC-to-DC converter substrate to be secured to the processor carrier in the Z-axis direction. The ability to assemble the converter to the processor in this way facilitates assembly compared to systems in which the converter is plugged in to the processor carrier in the direction substantially parallel to the surface of the motherboard.

A circuit board includes a substrate and electrical contacts to mate with a slot connector. The contacts include a first set of contacts that are associated with the communication of power and second set of contacts that are associated with the communication of signals and are not used to communicate power. Adjacent contacts of the first set have a first spacing, and adjacent contacts of the second set have a second spacing different from the first spacing. The circuit board has a retention profile to engage a retention mechanism of the slot connector. A housing of the slot connector may be made from a material that has a thermal conductivity of at least 0.27 W/m·K, and the slot connector housing may include fins that are formed on the slot connector to conduct heat away from circuitry of the circuit board.

An interconnected circuit module and motherboard use an electrical edge connector with conductive polymer contacts. The circuit module has electrical terminals along an edge of a front surface, and the electrical terminals extend to plated cylindrical grooves that are formed in the edge surface of the circuit module. The electrical edge connector is fastened to a surface of the motherboard and receives the edge terminals of the circuit module. When the circuit module is secured in the edge connector, the conductive polymer contacts are aligned with the cylindrical grooves of the circuit module and compressed against a land grid array on the surface of the motherboard. The connector is able to transmit electrical signals between the circuit module and the motherboard without the used of electrical pin connections.

A tie wrap assembly comprises a tie wrap, for retaining a cable assembly, and a tie wrap base, for connecting the cable assembly to the chassis. The tie wrap includes a shaped engagement member for fittably coupling to an orifice within the tie wrap base. The tie wrap base is flexible, allowing the engagement member to be repeatedly inserted into and removed from the tie wrap base, as well as being fit through a hole in the chassis. One or more tie wrap bases are disposed at pre-arranged locations along the chassis. The tie wrap assembly allows cabling to be consistently routed along the pre-arranged locations, facilitating the consistent placement of cables in a mass production environment.

Systems and methods for manufacturing modified impedance coaxial cables including providing a coaxial cable having an inner conductor, a dielectric layer at least partially covering an outer surface of the inner conductor, and an outer conductor at least partially covering an outer surface of the dielectric layer. The coaxial cable may include a first section having a first impedance configured to allow a first frequency band to pass. A discontinuity section may be formed in at least one of the inner conductor, the dielectric layer, and the outer conductor. The discontinuity section may have an impedance different than the first impedance and a length which is configured to attenuate a second frequency band.
