Abstract: An antenna (100) has a connector (200) having a ground lead (102) and a signal lead (114). A dielectric (112) captures and embeds the connector (200) forming a connector substrate assembly (120) having a first side (122) and a second opposite side (124). A first conductive material (104) is affixed to the first side (122) of the connector substrate assembly (120) and coupling to the ground lead (102) and a second conductive material (110) is affixed to the second opposite side (124) of the connector substrate assembly (112) coupling the signal lead (114).

Abstract: A printed circuit substrate interconnection is made between two printed circuit substrates. A first printed circuit substrate (10) is a laminate of at least two dielectric layers (12, 14), and has a first circuit pattern (16) disposed between the two layers. The circuit pattern terminates in one or more lands or pads (17) located near a vertical edge (13) of the layer. The second dielectric layer is laminated to the first layer, over the circuit pattern, so as to reveal the lands. A second printed circuit substrate (20) is a laminate of at least one dielectric layer (22), and has a second circuit pattern (26) terminating in one or more lands or pads (27) located near a vertical edge (23) of the layer, and in a pattern corresponding to the lands of the first circuit pattern.

Abstract: An electrical socket (10) for interconnecting a printed circuit surface (11) and a coaxial connector (12), comprising a molded plateable dielectric body (10'). The body (10') has a plated center contact portion (20) for selectively receiving the coaxial connector (12) and surface mounting with the printed circuit surface (11). Similarly, the body (10') also has a plated ground contact portion (21) for selectively receiving the coaxial connector (12) and surface mounting with the printed circuit surface (11), wherein the portions are integrally formed as a single piece (10').
