Abstract: The electronic system generally includes an electronic panel having circuitry plated on a surface thereof as well as electronic components attached thereto. The circuitry connects the electronic components for operation of the electronic device in the engine compartment. A flatwire bus electronically connects the electronic panel and the electronic device in the engine compartment for transmitting signals there between. The electronic panel is directly connected to the bulkhead.

Abstract: A die mount assembly including a semiconductor die and die mount is provided. The semiconductor die may be a light emitting diode die that is attached to the die mount forming an electrical and thermal connection. The die mount includes a first set of pads and a second set of pads. A first pad of the first set of pads is connected to a second pad of the second set of pads through a plurality of vias. The vias comprise an electrically and thermally conductive material that connect the first pad to the second pad through a substrate.

Abstract: An electronic system generally includes a flatwire electronic site and a flatwire bus electronically connecting the flatwire electronic site to an electronic device in the engine compartment. The flatwire electronic site has a flexible substrate with electronic components attached to the substrate for operation of the electronic device. The flatwire electronic site is mounted to the passenger site of the bulkhead for thermal cooling as well as protection from the harsh environment of the engine compartment. The bulkhead has an aperture sized to allow the flatwire bus to pass through the bulkhead into the engine compartment. By utilizing a flatwire bus, this aperture is small in size and the integrity of the bulkhead is improved.

Abstract: An antenna system for receiving communication signals from satellites having plurality of subplates, a plurality of antenna nodes supported on the top surface of each subplate, and an electronic control unit to which the subplates are fixed and aligned and a collapsible support stand fixed to the bottom of the electronic control unit opposite the subplates in which the subplates, electronic control unit and stand interconnect to form an easily assembled lightweight antenna assembly that may be disassembled into easily portable components.

Abstract: A multi-layer electronic circuit board design 10 having selectively formed apertures or cavities 26, and which includes grooves or troughs 20, 22 which are effective to selectively entrap liquefied adhesive material, thereby substantially preventing the adhesive material from entering the apertures 26.

Abstract: An electronic system generally includes a flatwire electronic site and a flatwire bus electronically connecting the flatwire electronic site and an electronic device in the engine compartment. The flatwire electronic site has a flexible substrate with electronic components attached to the substrate for operation of the electronic device. The flatwire electronic site is mounted to the engine side of the bulkhead for thermal cooling of the flatwire electronic site. A cover is attached to the bulkhead which encloses a flatwire electronic site for environmental protection.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for condensing a solderless flux vapor onto a work surface to be soldered, such as an electronic circuit board. The flux vapor is created by heating flux in a liquid state to a temperature greater than the temperature of the work surface. Flux is applied to the work surface without the use of any volatile organic chemicals.
