Patents by Inventor Robert Bauerle

Robert Bauerle has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Hybrid circuit board
    Patent number: 12282053
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, semiconductor products and methods for circuit testing, specifically non-contact circuit testing are provided that allow for the wireless, non-contact testing of an electrical component. For example, non-contact circuit testing is performed using a non-contact testing apparatus that include a circuit cover with a conductive material and an oscilloscope. The circuit cover is places over an electrical component to form a parallel plate capacitor with electrical component. The parallel plate capacitor is formed with an air dielectric between the electrical component and the circuit cover. An electrical signal is initiated at the electrical component to cause a voltage through the parallel plate capacitor. An oscilloscope probe is used to measure the voltage of the parallel plate capacitor to determine a connectivity of the electrical component without contacting the electrical component.
    Type: Grant
