Abstract: An electronic device console includes a console body that houses a chip package, and a duct extending from the console body. An interior volume of the duct is in fluid communication with an interior volume of the console body. A first vent is at a distal end of the duct. A second vent is in a wall of the console body. The console may be oriented in a first orientation and a second orientation. The duct functions as a chimney for natural convection cooling of the chip package when the console is oriented in the first orientation. The console body functions as a chimney for natural convection cooling of the chip package when the console is oriented in the second orientation.

The collapsible assembly further includes: a control subassembly affixed to the base plate and the rim; and a bearing subassembly horizontally disposed between the control subassembly and the rim.

Abstract: An electronic system includes two integrated circuit (IC) packages that are connected by a package to package (PP) connector. The PP connector may include cabling between a first cabling connector and a second cabling connector. The first cabling connector may be seated to a first carrier connector upon a first IC device carrier of the first IC device package. The second cabling connector may be seated to a second carrier connector upon a second IC device carrier of the second IC device package. The electronic system may further include a heat sink connected to the IC packages, to the first cabling connector, and to the second cabling connector. An IC device may route I/O data through the PP connector, effectively increasing the number of I/O routes.

Abstract: Direct bonding heterogeneous integration packaging structures and processes include a packaging substrate with first and second opposing surfaces. A trench or a pedestal is provided in the first surface. A bridge is disposed in the trench or is adjacent the pedestal sidewall, wherein the bridge includes an upper surface coplanar with the first surface of the package substrate. At least two chips in a side by side proximal arrangement overly the bridge and the packaging substrate, wherein the bridge underlies peripheral edges of the at least two chips in the side by side proximal arrangement. The at least two chips include a plurality of electric connections that are directly coupled to corresponding electrical connections on the bridge and on the packaging substrate.

Abstract: A basketball goal includes a stand, a backboard, a mounting assembly, and a rim. The backboard has a cutout. The mounting assembly includes a lower extension arm, a pair of upper extension arms, a mounting plate, and a mounting frame. Each upper extension arm has a first end coupled to the lower extension arm and a second end coupled to the backboard. A back surface of the mounting plate is affixed to an end of the lower extension arm. The mounting frame is affixed to the mounting plate and defines a channel into which a bottom edge of the backboard is fitted with the cutout around the mounting plate. The rim is affixed to the front surface of the mounting plate through the cutout in the backboard.

Abstract: Techniques for treating a tumor and vaccinating against cancer are described. The techniques include treating the tumor by positioning electrodes over an interface between the tumor and non-tumor tissue and applying sub-microsecond pulsed electric fields. The positioning is facilitated by an imaginary contour line of a threshold value of the electric field. In an example, the imaginary contour line is overlaid over images that include the tumor such that the electrodes are properly positioned over the tumor. The techniques also include vaccinating against cancer by passing sub-microsecond pulsed electric fields through tumor cells of a subject sufficient to cause the tumor cells to express calreticulin on surface membranes. The tumor cells are extracted and introduced with the expressed calreticulin into the subject or another subject, thereby providing a vaccination.
