Abstract: A method for fabricating a circuit board apparatus includes providing a circuit board that has a socket with at least one plated through-hole and providing a connector that has a housing with first and second connector interfaces that have, respectively, at least first and second connector contacts. The first connector interface opens into an interior of the housing such that there is a vapor path through the first connector interface and interior of the housing to the second connector contact at the second connector interface. The first connector contact is inserted through the resilient seal and into the plated through-hole such that the resilient seal intimately seals around the first connector contact to provide a barrier at the first connector interface into the vapor path.

Abstract: A single-unit aerospace remote sensing and solid state power controller may include a processing module, a remote data concentrator (RDC) module in communication with the processing module, and configured to receive analog or discrete or discrete input comprising load sensor information and translate the analog or discrete input into a protocol operable by the processing module. The single-unit aerospace remote sensing and solid state power controller may further include a solid state power controller in communication with the RDC and the processing module, configured to receive load sensor information from the RDC module and control at least one load mechanism based on the load sensor information.

Abstract: A multi-channel power controller includes a main controller communicatively coupled to a plurality of standard power control circuit boards. Each of the standard power controller circuit boards includes a nexus having a plurality of virtual channels and a plurality of solid state power controllers. Each of the solid state power controllers is controlled by one of the virtual channels. A plurality of physical control channels operable to control power to at least one load. Each physical control channel of the plurality of physical control channels is controlled by a corresponding solid state power controller of the plurality of solid state power controllers. At least one of the virtual channels controls more than one of the physical control channels in the plurality of physical control channels.

Abstract: A circuit board has a socket with at least one plated through-hole. A connector includes a housing that has first and second connector interfaces with, respectively, at least first and second connector contacts. The first connector interface opens into an interior of the housing such that there is a vapor path through the first connector interface and the interior of the housing to the second connector contact at the second connector interface. A resilient seal is located at the first connector interface. The first connector contact extends through the resilient seal and into the plated through-hole. The resilient seal intimately seals around the first connector contact and provides a barrier at the first connector interface into the vapor path.
