Abstract: A coaxial to transmission line connector has a connector and an attachment area with a windowed electrical attachment point that when soldered in place on a ground reference of an electrical device, creates an electrical and mechanical connection between an outer conductor of the coaxial to transmission line connector. The attachment area has at least one mechanical alignment point and a corresponding reference pivot point located substantially co-planar at the termination of the coaxial dielectric region at an edge of a PCB and a port of the coaxial to transmission line connector. The at least one mechanical alignment point and the corresponding reference pivot plane serve to automatically align the coaxial to transmission line connector to the electrical device. Opposite the attachment area is a dielectric area following termination of the outer conductor in the transition area of the microstrip transmission line.

Abstract: A light sensitive switch for the activation of an alerting circuit (70) to be used as an electronic alerting device (50). Alerting device (50) may be used in publications such as a magazine (78) or book (94) to enhance the printed material by audio visual and/or mechanical vibration means. A photosensor (52) is used to detect ambient light when the publication is opened to an activation page (86) where the enhancement is located. Photosensor (52) switches on a transistor (66) when exposed to light, which in turn switches on alerting circuit (70). Alerting circuit (70) may consist of an audio transducer (74), a lamp (76), a motor (128), a solenoid (136), a mechanical vibrator or any combination of these. Pages are used to block ambient light from photosensor (52) when the publication is closed, thus turning off alerting device (50).
