  • Patent number: 11984419
    Abstract: Package structures and methods for manufacturing the same are provided. The package structure includes a first bump structure formed over a first substrate. The first bump structure includes a first pillar layer formed over the first substrate and a first barrier layer formed over the first pillar layer. In addition, the first barrier layer has a first protruding portion laterally extending outside a first edge of the first pillar layer. The package structure further includes a second bump structure bonded to the first bump structure through a solder joint. In addition, the second bump structure includes a second pillar layer formed over a second substrate and a second barrier layer formed over the second pillar layer. The first protruding portion of the first barrier layer is spaced apart from the solder joint.

  • Patent number: 10390464
    Abstract: A server heat dissipation channel structure, used in a server having a plurality of heat generating sources installed therein, includes an upper guiding shield, a lower guiding shield and a fan. The upper guiding shield includes an upper entrance section and a flow guiding channel extended therefrom. The lower guiding shield includes a lower entrance section and a first heat dissipation channel extended therefrom. The fan includes an air output plane facing toward the upper entrance section and the lower entrance section correspondingly at the same time. In addition, the upper guiding shield includes a downward slanted channel at a rear end of the flow guiding channel opposite from a rear end of the first heat dissipation channel and a second heat dissipation channel extended from the first heat dissipation channel. The first and second heat dissipating channels respectively pass through different heat generating sources installed inside the server.

  • Publication number: 20180081410
    Abstract: A chassis structure capable of sensing temperature of a media storage device includes a tray. The tray includes a body, an accommodating space formed in the body, a connector disposed on the body, and a temperature sensor juxtaposed with the connector. The media storage device is electrically coupled to the connector and contacts the temperature sensor. A working temperature is measured by a temperature sensor directly attached to an outer housing of the media storage device, thereby avoiding influences such as air flow and undesired heat conduction of the chassis structure.

  • Patent number: 8466692
    Abstract: An antenna loop layout method for an electromagnetic sensor board is provided. The electromagnetic sensor board has a plurality of inductive antennas which are arranged abreast of each other. One end of the inductive antennas is coupled to each other, and the other end of the inductive antennas have a switch. The method comprises the following steps: first, a pre-determined interval value is provided. Then, the switches are closed in sequence by the pre-determined interval value to form a plurality of physical antenna loops. The pre-determined interval value can be changed dynamically.

  • Publication number: 20120299969
    Abstract: A tablet is disclosed having a hierarchical adjustment function in a side area thereof. In particular, a tablet has a rollover function area in a side area for performing the functions of scrolling a framed object, minifying and magnifying a framed object (such as a picture), and adjusting a (sound) volume. A drawing area (or working area) and at least one rollover function area are disposed on the surface of the tablet. The rollover function area is disposed at one side of the drawing area. A user can activate and implement the hierarchical adjustment function only by using an electromagnetic pen to touch the rollover function area and move therein.

  • Patent number: 7843440
    Abstract: A scrolling electronic whiteboard is provided, including a thin-film antenna board, at least an electromagnetic signal transmitter, a main control board, and a scrolling mechanism cassette. The scrolling mechanism cassette is for providing the housing of the thin-film antenna board to scroll and extend by pulling. The thin-film antenna board can be entirely scrolled and housed inside the scrolling mechanism cassette. The electromagnetic signal transmitter includes a resonant circuit for transmitting an electromagnetic signal of a specific frequency to determine the length of the thin-film antenna board being pulled outside of the scrolling mechanism cassette. The main control board is for receiving the antenna loop signals of the thin-film antenna board, and the electromagnetic signals of each electromagnetic signal transmitters.
