  • Patent number: 7199755
    Abstract: In order to create a compact antenna block a corner-shaped support is provided with a radiating area on an upper surface thereof and a transition area is provided on an underlying surface. The transition area is characterized in that it is triangular. The angle of the triangle forms a connection point for the antenna. The tapered part of the corner-shaped support is fitted with a pole enabling it to be lifted above the plane of the circuit to which the antenna block is connected, whereby the transition area extends gradually above said plane, the upper radiating area being substantially parallel to said plane. As a result the impedance of the antenna can be regulated more easily in such a way that it is continuously constant and the reflection coefficient is improved.

  • Patent number: 6767142
    Abstract: An optoelectric device (1) has an emitter and/or receiver (5) on a first element (13) of a printed circuit (2) of this device. Moreover, the device has at least one second printed-circuit element (32) such that the second element is not in alignment with the first element. And consequently, the device provides for the first element and the second element to be applied against separate and secant faces of a heatsink (4) of the device. The function of this heatsink is to evacuate the heat emitted by an optic connection provided on the device. The heatsink also permits supporting and holding the different portions of the printed circuit.

  • Patent number: 6565384
    Abstract: An electro-optical connection module (1) comprises a first end (30) designed to receive optical fibers (11), and comprises means (6) to convert a signal conveyed by these optical fibers into an electrical signal. These means are preferably placed on a rigid portion (4) of a printed circuit (2) contained in this module. Furthermore, this printed circuit portion is connected by means of a flexible printed circuit portion (13) to a printed circuit end (17). This printed circuit end has contacts (100) in the form of an electrical plug at one end (34) of this module. This second end is opposite to the first end of the module. Thus, the optical module is used for an electrical connection and comprises every means to convert the optical signal received into an electrical signal.
