Abstract: A system including an analog block and a digital block. The analog block and the digital block are arranged on a package. The package includes a first ground coupled to the analog block and a second ground coupled to the digital block. The second ground is physically separate from the first ground. The package also includes a noise-mitigation stitching connector that has a first end connected to the first ground and a second end connected to the second ground.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for implementing an enhanced optical mirror coupling and alignment mechanism utilizing two-photon resist. An initial placement is provided for one or more vias on a printed circuit board. A via is filled with a resist. A series of tightly focused light beams suitably exposes the resist at varying depths in the via, the varying depths defining a sloped polymer in the via after removing resist that had not been at the focus of the light beam. The sloped polymer is coated with reflective material to reflect light into or out of the via.

Abstract: A device for connecting a plurality of assemblage-mounted optical transmitters to a plurality of assemblage-mounted optical receivers mounted on a selected side of an assemblage includes a planar frame configured to be coupled to the selected side of the assemblage. A plurality of first redirecting structures is affixed to the planar frame and each is configured to receive a first optical signal from a different assemblage-mounted optical transmitter. Each first redirecting structure transmits a second optical signal, corresponding to the first optical signal, along a preselected path. A plurality of second redirecting structures is affixed to the planar frame and each is configured to receive the second optical signal from a different one of the first redirecting structures. Each of the second redirecting structures transmits a third optical signal, corresponding to the second optical signal, to a different one of the assemblage-mounted optical receivers.

Abstract: A method of enabling triggering an oscilloscope includes placing a tip portion of a probe, electrically connected to the oscilloscope, on an electrical circuit, applying pressure to the probe tip, and establishing an electrical contact inside the probe as a result of pressure applied to the probe tip. The electrical contact closes an electrical circuit that triggers the oscilloscope.
