Abstract:
A capacitive touch sensitive apparatus includes a touch sensitive viewing area configured to detect a location of a touch applied to the touch sensitive viewing area by detecting a change in a coupling capacitance. A border area surrounds the touch sensitive viewing area. An electrically conductive first electrode includes an active portion disposed in and extending across the touch sensitive viewing area and an end portion at an end of the first electrode disposed in the border area for connection to a controller. The active portion of the first electrode has a substantially uniform first sheet resistance across the viewing area. The end portion of the first electrode is patterned in the form of an electrically conductive mesh including a plurality of interconnected conductive traces defining a plurality of interstices therebetween, the traces having substantially the first sheet resistance, and the interstices having a higher second sheet resistance.
Abstract:
A connector for connecting with a serial ATA socket is described, the socket having end walls and an indent in each end wall. The connector has an insulated elongated member, the member having a first wall, an opposite second wall, first and second side walls and an insertion end. A plurality of contacts within the insulated elongated member extend in the direction of the insertion end. A locking 'member is located at least at one side wall for securing the connector to a socket. The locking member comprising a latching finger attached to the side wall. The latching finger extends in the direction of the insertion end of the insulated elongated member. The latching finger has a ridge directed towards the opposite side wall in the extended portion of the latching finger.
