Abstract: An electronic handheld scorekeeping device is provided for use by a golfer. The electronic handheld scorekeeping device includes an electronic screen and a user input device in the form of a keypad. The electronic handheld scorekeeping device includes a central processing unit (CPU) programmed for performing golf scorekeeping, calculating a golfer's handicap, providing shot by shot information of each hole played, displaying the rules of the game of golf, and providing the characteristics of a plurality of golf courses including par value per hole, fairway characteristics, general course layout and topography.

Abstract: Multi-layer laminated structures on which electrical devices may be mounted, methods for fabricating such structures, and power supplies including such structures are disclosed. One such multi-layer laminated structure include a first portion on which at least one electrical device may be mounted and further includes a portion that overlays a fractional portion of a major surface of the first portion and on which at least one electrical device may be mounted.

Abstract: A multi-layer laminate on which electrical devices may be mounted includes a printed circuit portion, a first electrically isolating layer and a substantially rigid base. The printed circuit portion has a first major surface to receive one or more electrical devices to be mounted on the multi-layer laminate, and further has an electrically conductive layer having one or more conductive traces to be electrically connected to one or more of the electrical devices to be mounted on the multi-layer laminate. The laminate further includes at least one adhesive layer comprising an adhesive that is activatable at a first set of processing conditions, and re-activatable at a second set of processing conditions.

Abstract: A blank formed from electrically conductive sheet material defines a continuous conductive path which includes two terminal ends and at least three loops disposed along the path. The blank is foldable at preselected folding locations on the path to position the loops in overlying relation to one another, and the blank is preferably formed with the loops disposed along the conductive path in substantially the same plane. The blank is used to form a multi-turn planar winding for a magnetic device such as, for example, an inductor or transformer which may be incorporated into electrical circuits such as power supplies. The planar magnetic device provides a low overall volume and profile, as well as a substantially higher volume or surface area of conductive material per turn of the winding compared to conventional wire or etched windings to provide a higher current carrying capacity and fewer turns compared to conventional windings.
