Patent number: 11943886Abstract: An electronic assembly includes an electronic package having an integrated circuit component and interposer assemblies with compressible interposer contacts electrically connected thereto. Cable connector modules are coupled to the interposer assemblies. A cover assembly is coupled to the upper surface of the electronic package over the cable connector modules. The cover assembly includes bridge assemblies having plates in a plate stack that are independently movable. A load plate engages upper edges of the plates of the bridge assemblies and press against the plates to drive the bridge assemblies into the cable connector modules using compression hardware. The cable connector modules compress the interposer contacts of the interposer assemblies when the load plate presses the plates of the bridge assemblies into the cable connector modules.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS GmbHInventors: Christopher William Blackburn, Brian Patrick Costello, Alex Michael Sharf

Patent number: 10870925Abstract: Protein arrays and their use to assay, in a parallel fashion, the protein products of highly homologous or related DNA coding sequences and described. By highly homologous or related it is meant those DNA coding sequences which share a common sequence and which differ only by one or more naturally occurring mutations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms, deletions or insertions, or those sequences which are considered to be haplotypes. Such highly homologous or related DNA coding sequences are generally naturally occurring variants of the same gene. Arrays according to the invention have two or more individual proteins deposited in a spatially defined pattern on a surface in a form whereby a property such as an activity or function of the proteins can be investigated or assayed in parallel by interrogation of the array.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2018Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: SENGENICS CORPORATION PTE LTDInventors: Jonathan Mark Boutell, Benjamin Leslie James Godber, Darren James Hart, Jonathan Michael Blackburn
