    Abstract: Battery systems according to embodiments of the present technology may include a battery. The battery may include a first electrode terminal and a second electrode terminal accessible along a first surface of the battery. The systems may include a module electrically coupled with the battery. The module may include a circuit board characterized by a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The module may include a mold extending from the first surface of the circuit board toward the battery. The module may include a first conductive tab electrically coupling the module with the first electrode terminal. The module may include a second conductive tab electrically coupling the module with the second electrode terminal. The second conductive tab may extend across the mold substantially parallel to the first surface of the circuit board.

    Abstract: Electronic devices may be provided with printed circuits to which integrated circuits and other electrical components may be mounted. A first printed circuit may have a first surface with an array of contact pads arranged in rows and columns. Each column of contact pads may have a series of contact pads separated by gaps. The contact pads in each column may be staggered with respect to the contact pads in adjacent columns such that each contact pad in a given column is horizontally adjacent to associated gaps in the adjacent columns. A component may be mounted to an opposing surface of the printed circuit such that it overlaps one of the gaps between the staggered contact pads. By mounting the component to portions of the first printed circuit that do not overlap the staggered contact pads, the risk of damaging the electrical component during solder reflow operations may be minimized.

    Abstract: An RF shield formed of RF opaque material that permits access to components on a printed circuit board is described. The RF shield can include a first portion attached to the PCB and a removable top portion attached to the first portion at an interface. The top portion is removed from the first portion to expose the components on the PCB. In one aspect of the described embodiment, the top portion is peeled away from the first portion. The components are enclosed within the RF shield after the removal of the top portion by attaching and sealing another top portion to the first portion at the interface by, for example, laser attaching the first portion and the other top portion at the interface.

    Abstract: Readily manufactured structures for sealing or encapsulating devices in system-in-a-package modules, such that the modules are easily assembled, have a low-profile, and are space efficient. One example may provide readily manufactured covers for SIP modules. These modules may be easily assembled by attaching the cover to a top side of a substrate. These SIP modules may have a low-profile, for example when their height is reduced using one or more recesses in a bottom surface of a top of the recess, where the one or more recesses are arranged to accept one or more components. These SIP modules may be made space efficient by placing an edge of a cover near an edge of the substrate and connecting the plating of the cover using side plating on, or vias through, the substrate.
