  • Patent number: 8068346
    Abstract: A circuit board is provided with a plurality of MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors) each of which include a field effect transistor and an associated control circuit. The control circuits are mounted in a control section of the board remote from a power section mounting the MOSFETs. The present invention reduces the assembly steps required in the prior art wherein the MOSFET and its control circuit were mounted as preassembled units to the board. Moreover, the number of MOSFETs per unit area of board is increased by the present invention.

  • Patent number: 5863597
    Abstract: A cost-effective process for preventing mealing of a polyurethane conformal coating applied to a printed wiring board is described. The process includes utilizing a liquid photoimagable solder mask for protecting the circuitry within the board prior to applying the polyurethane conformal coating. The process further includes applying the polyurethane coating within a controlled maximum thickness of 0.0015 inches for preventing vesication of the conformal coating. Additionally, a manufactured printed circuit substrate incorporating these steps is described.
