    Abstract: Various embodiments of a mold cavity structure of a transfer molding system are disclosed. The transfer molding system includes a first mold-forming structure and a second mold-forming structure. The second mold-forming structure includes a mold cavity. The mold cavity includes a gate region, a component region, and a vent region. The component region is configured to enclose an electrical component. A volume of the vent region is adjustable. The transfer molding system further includes an inlet port coupled to the gate region and configured to direct a flow of a molding compound into the mold cavity during an operation of the transfer molding system.

    Abstract: A portable electronic device packaged into a System-in-Package assembly is disclosed. The portable electronic device can include a substrate and a plurality of components mounted on the substrate and included in one or more subsystems. Interference between subsystems or from external sources can be reduced or eliminated by disposing an insulating layer over the components, forming narrow trenches between subsystems, and depositing one or more layers of a multi-layer thin film stack on the insulating layer and filling the trenches. In some examples, the multi-layer thin film stack can include an adhesion layer, a shielding layer, a protection layer, and a cosmetic layer. In some examples, the multi-layer thin film stack can include multi-functional layers such as a protection and cosmetic layer.

    Abstract: The described embodiments relate generally to electronic devices and more particularly to methods for selectively encapsulating circuit boards and other electronic components contained within electronic devices. A first encapsulation layer can be limited to specific regions of a circuit board using a variety of processes including molding, laser ablation, etching, milling, and the like. Secondary assembly steps can then take place in the regions where the encapsulation layer is removed. In some embodiments, secondary encapsulants having various thermal, electrical, and optical characteristics can fill openings left in the first encapsulation layer to aid in the operation of underlying components.

    Abstract: Electrical components may be soldered to a printed circuit. The printed circuit may have an edge with an opening. Printed circuit contacts in the opening may be configured to form electrical connections with mating contacts on a flexible printed circuit or other external structure. A tester may test the electrical components by conveying signals through the contacts. Following testing, the external structure may be removed from the opening. The opening may then be filled with dielectric to isolate the printed circuit contacts. A printed circuit may have traces that extend under a ground on a surface of the printed circuit, may have edge test points formed from contacts that are cut in half when removing portions of the printed circuit, or may have through-mold vias that are formed through encapsulant over the electrical components.
