  • Shielded high density card connector
    Patent number: 9929511
    Abstract: An example electronic assembly for securing an electronic card. In some forms, the electronic assembly further includes a printed circuit board. The electronic assembly includes a housing having a first set of electrical contacts and a second set of electrical contacts. The housing is configured to receive the electronic card between the first and second set of electrical contacts. The housing further includes a third set of electrical contacts and a fourth set of electrical contacts. The housing is configured to receive the electronic card between the third and fourth set of electrical contacts. A ground shield is positioned between at least one of the first and third set of electrical contacts and the second and fourth set of electrical contacts. In some forms, the ground shield may be positioned between both the first and third set of electrical contacts and the second and fourth set of electrical contacts.

  • Devices and methods to reduce differential signal pair crosstalk
    Patent number: 9554454
    Abstract: Generally discussed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods that relate to reducing crosstalk in a differential signal pair. According to an example, a device may include a first pair of differential signal lines comprising a first signal line and a second signal line proximate the first signal line, the first signal line and the second signal line separated from each other along a first line, and a second pair of differential signal lines comprising a third signal line proximate a fourth signal, the third signal line and the fourth signal separated from each other along a second line generally perpendicular to the first line.
