    摘要: An electronic component is mounted on a surface layer of a multilayer substrate constituting a wiring substrate, and a signal wire of the surface layer is electrically connected to the electronic component. A conductor pad for contact with an inspection probe is composed of a via and a solder filled in an internal opening portion thereof. The via has a laser-processed taper-shaped hole with a metal-plated inner peripheral surface and connects the inter-layer connection between the signal wire of the surface layer and a signal wire of the inner layer. The solder is filled in the opening portion of the via by filling, heating and melting solder material therein. Since the peripheral edge portion is solidified first at the time of the cooling and the solidification, the middle part is recessed compared to the peripheral edge portion. This ensures a reliable contact of the inspection probe.

    摘要: An electronic device may include a transceiver with a substrate and an inductor on the substrate. A ring of ground traces may surround the inductor. Circuit components may be patterned onto the substrate overlapping the inductor, a region of the substrate surrounded by the inductor, and/or a region of the substrate between the inductor and the ring. The components may be arranged in trees with feed lines extending radially outward from a central axis. The components in each tree may be separated from the capacitors in other trees by gaps, preventing eddy currents on the trees. The components may be used to form bypass capacitors for power supply lines, a low-dropout regulator load, part of the loop filter of a phase-locked loop, or other portions of the transceiver. The components may thereby be used to convey signals while also meeting fill factor requirements associated with fabrication of the substrate.

    摘要: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing flexible printed circuit board (“PCB”)-based mobile sensor platform. In various embodiments, a flexible PCB-based mobile sensor platform includes a body portion(s) and at least one of a microcontroller, a locomotion system, sensors, a transceiver(s), and/or the like, each disposed on the body portion(s). The locomotion system includes one or more flexible PCB portions and corresponding actuators. Based on instructions from the microcontroller, at least one actuator may cause bending and unbending of a corresponding flexible PCB portion(s) that causes the flexible PCB-based mobile sensor platform to move toward a target location within a first environment. Upon arrival, the sensors may collect sensor data regarding at least one of the target location, an object located at the target location, or a portion of the object, and the microcontroller may send the collected sensor data to an external device via the transceiver.

    摘要: A transmission line includes a substrate, a high-frequency signal transmission line, a differential signal transmission line, and a power supply line. The substrate is insulating, extends in a predetermined direction, and internally includes each of the high-frequency signal transmission line, the differential signal transmission line, and the power supply line. The power supply line and the high-frequency signal transmission line are in parallel or substantially in parallel to each other, and the differential signal transmission line is between the power supply line and the high-frequency signal transmission line.
