Abstract: A package structure includes a die, an encapsulant laterally encapsulating the die, a warpage control material disposed over the die, and a protection material disposed over the encapsulant and around the warpage control material. A coefficient of thermal expansion of the protection material is less than a coefficient of thermal expansion of the encapsulant.

Abstract: The power converter of the invention includes a housing, two conductive pins, a flexible arm and a plug. The housing has a recess. The conductive pins protrude from the recess. The flexible arm is formed with a protrudent plate and a positioning block, which protrude from the recess. The protrudent plate is located beside the conductive pins. The plug includes a disk and two leads. The protrudent plate presses either of the conductive pins when the flexible arm is depressed so that the conductive pins move away from the leads to form a disconnection. The conductive pins connect to the leads when the disk is positioned by the positioning block.

Abstract: A sliding structure includes a stator, a slider, and a plane spring. The slider is slidably disposed on the stator. The plane spring is interposed between the stator and the slider. The plane spring includes two spiral portions which curl into two inverse directions towards two center portions. The two center portions of the plane spring are respectively fixed to the stator and the slider so that the plane spring is capable of pushing the slider to slide to one of two maintaining positions in a latter half of a slide operation between the two maintaining positions.
