  • Publication number: 20130170197
    Abstract: An LED light assembly includes a plurality of LED printed circuit boards (PCB), with each LED PCB having at least one LED bulb and electrical connector pads configured at each opposite end of the boards. A two-component surface mount electrical connector is configured to connect one end of a first LED PCB to an end of a second said LED PCB such that the first and second LED PCBs are electrically connected end-to-end. The connected LED PCBs may be configured in a light tube that includes connector end caps for mounting the light tube in a light fixture.

  • Publication number: 20130155580
    Abstract: A wet electrolytic capacitor that includes a sintered porous anode body containing a dielectric layer, a fluid electrolyte, and a cathode is provided. At least one longitudinally extending channel is recessed into the anode body. The channel may have a relatively high aspect ratio (length divided by width), such as about 2 or more, in some embodiments about 5 or more, in some embodiments from about 10 to about 200, in some embodiments from about 15 to about 150, in some embodiments from about 20 to about 100, and in some embodiments, from about 30 to about 60.

  • Publication number: 20130141841
    Abstract: A wet electrolytic capacitor is provided. The capacitor contains an anode comprising an anodically oxidized pellet formed from a pressed and sintered powder, a cathode that contains a metal substrate coated with a conductive polymer, and a working electrolyte in communication with the anode and the cathode. The working electrolyte is in the form of a gel and comprises an ammonium salt of an organic acid, inorganic oxide particles, an acid, and a solvent system that comprises water. The working electrolyte has a pH value of from about 5.0 to about 8.0.

  • Publication number: 20130127588
    Abstract: An ultra wideband frequency compensated resistor and related methodologies for frequency compensation are disclosed. In exemplary configuration, a resistive layer is provided over a substrate, and a frequency compensating structure is provided over at least a portion of the resistive layer and separated therefrom by an insulative layer. In certain embodiments, the insulating layer may be an adhesive that may also be effective to secure a protective cover over the resistive material and supporting substrate. In selected embodiments, the frequency compensating structure corresponds to a plurality of conductive layers, one or more of which may be directly electrically connected to terminations for the resistive material while one or more of the conductive layers are not so connected.
