Abstract: A touch screen comprises a display displaying through a front surface of the display and a sensor system. The sensor system is interposed between a back surface of the display and a bottom surface of a housing in which the touch screen is arranged. The sensor system comprises a first electrode assembly and a second electrode assembly and is configured to sense capacitance between the first electrode assembly and the second electrode assembly. The touch screen further comprises a processor being configured to determine based on the sensed capacitance a force resulting from the touch action.

Abstract: A switch configured to contact an exposed contact on an edge of a multilayer circuit board when selectively activated. The switch is particularly useful for electronic equipment such as mobile phones, PDA's, etc. where space for key contacts on the circuit board is limited. By facilitating connection to terminals formed on edges of a circuit board and/or edges of layers of multilayer circuit boards, the switch provides additional options for button locations on the electronic device heretofore requiring routing of wiring.

Abstract: A combined speaker and antenna arrangement for a communication terminal, includes a support structure carrying a first antenna element, and a second antenna element arranged at a predetermined distance from said first antenna element. The second antenna element is a conductive first portion of a sheet of flexible film. An elongated second portion of the flexible film, carrying a conductive lead, extends from adjacent to the first portion to a speaker connected to an outer end of the elongated second portion. The second, elongated portion, is bent such that the speaker is positioned between the film and the support structure, adjacent to an aperture in the first portion.
