摘要:
A male connector connects with a female connector to establish an electrical connection. The male and female connectors each include a connector housing having hold-down tabs at opposite ends thereof for securing the connector housing to a substrate. The hold-down tabs are staggered or diagonally located such that one hold-down tab is proximal a first side of the connector housing and the other hold-down is proximal a second side of the connector housing. The staggered or diagonally-located hold-down tabs stabilize the connector housing against rocking or other movement on the substrate. The arrangement of hold-down tabs also permits the connector housing to nest or merge with another similarly-designed connector housing. The nested or merged connector housing conserve substrate space and permit a higher density of contacts in a given space on the substrate, whether the space is at an edge or in an interior of the substrate. The male and female connector housings include side walls having complementary polarization features. The polarization features on the female connector housing may be formed on a detachable polarization cap. A side of the male connector housing includes a stop member for providing a positive stop for the female connector and to prevent rocking. The stop member is configured to permit side-to-side nesting of male connector housings.

摘要:
An electrical connector includes a male connector and a female connector. The female connector includes a female connector housing and a plurality of female contact pins. The female contact pins includes a contact portion, a stabilizer portion, and a tail portion. The contact portion extends from the stabilizer portion at an angle. A lateral distance spanned by the angled contact portion is substantially the same as or less than the width of the stabilizer portion in the same direction. The female contact pins are arranged on the female connector housing in clusters of four. The clusters are arranged in rows such that each pair of rows defines five rows of female contact pins. The male connector includes a male connector housing and a plurality of male contact pins. The male connector housing has a plurality of buttresses extending therefrom. The male contact pins are arranged on the male connector housing to correspond to the arrangement of female contact pins. Each of the male contact pins has a slight angle to prevent separation between the male contact pin and its corresponding buttress.

An integrated module includes a connector for detachable connection to a signal source, with the connector having internal electrically conductive pins, and a housing defining a cavity for holding at least one semiconductor die. The housing includes side walls and an end plate joined to the side walls. Electrically conductive leads extend through at least one of the side walls with each of the leads including an internal lead section extending within the cavity and an external lead section extending externally of the cavity through at least one side wall. One of the side walls of the housing includes a portion that is attached to the connector, with the side walls and a bottom part of the connector being formed as one integrally molded part or as two separate parts that are joined together using processes such as ultrasonic welding. A printed circuit board can also form part of the integrated module, with the printed circuit board either being mounted in spaced parallel relation to the end plate on pegs that extend upwardly from the side walls of the housing, or the printed circuit board can be mounted between the connector and the housing either perpendicular to or parallel with the end plate of the housing. Passive components can be mounted on the printed circuit board and electrically connected to pins within the connector as well as to semiconductor dies mounted on the end plate within the housing. The electrically conductive leads extending from the side wall on one side of the integrated module can be offset relative to the electrically conductive leads extending from the opposite side wall such that two identical integrated modules can be mounted close to each other with the electrically conductive leads overlapping, thus optimizing space utilization.

A cooling system for a semiconductor die carrier is disclosed that includes a cooling fan disposed at a substantial distance from a semiconductor die carrier, a cooling duct including an inlet portion and an outlet portion, and a heat exchanger disposed on an upper surface of the semiconductor die carrier. The cooling duct inlet portion is attached to the cooling fan and the cooling duct outlet portion is disposed in close proximity to the heat exchanger. The cooling fan draws ambient air into the cooling duct and the ambient air exits the cooling duct outlet portion and passes in a heat exchange relationship with the heat exchanger.

摘要:
A semiconductor die carrier includes a housing that defines a cavity for holding one or more semiconductor dies, electrically conductive leads, and a cover plate having an aperture formed therethrough. The housing includes insulative side walls and a end plate joined to the side walls. The side walls and the end plate may be molded together as a one-piece unit. One or more of the side walls includes openings for receiving the leads so that an internal lead section extends within the cavity and an external lead section extends from the side walls external of the housing. The side walls may include a recess for receiving the cover plate. The aperture in the cover plate allows a semiconductor die held in the housing to be exposed to the environment.
