Patent number: 7193489Abstract: An RF cavity resonator (400) that includes: a resonator chamber (410) for containing an RF field; an RF coupling element (450, 452) coupled to the resonator chamber for introducing the RF field into and extracting the RF field from the resonator chamber; a tuning assembly (420) for causing the RF field to resonate at a desired frequency, wherein at least a portion of the tuning assembly is coupled within the resonator chamber; and a heat transport element (440) for transporting heat from the RF cavity resonator, wherein at least a portion of the heat transport element is coupled within the resonator chamber, the heat transport element including a phase change material, a housing for enclosing the phase change material, means for circulating the phase change material within the housing, and an electrically conductive surface for isolating the phase change material from the RF field.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2004Date of Patent: March 20, 2007Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Robert R. Kornowski, Robert A. Richter, Jr.

Patent number: 6842571Abstract: An optical interconnect system includes a stacked arrangement of optical lightpipe layers, one layer assigned to each emitter of the system. The various optical lightpipe layers are designed to provide the same level of light to each receptor of the system. The optical lightpipe layers are very thin, allowing the emitter and receptor devices of the system to span the entire optical lightpipe layer assembly. The path loss between every emitter and every receptor over the entire system can be balanced, i.e., made substantially the same, or otherwise set as desired with respect to individual emitters and receptors.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2002Date of Patent: January 11, 2005Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Wayne C. Kramer, Daniel R. Schroeder, Hans R. Merz, Gerald W. Ballard, Robert R. Kornowski, Jang-Hun Yeh, James K. Gehrke

Patent number: 6752657Abstract: A connection system for providing multiple modes of electromagnetic connection to a device. This system includes a ribbon cable with a plurality of multi-mode electromagnetic conductors arranged in a serial array, one alongside the other including a central optical conductor disposed between a pair of electrical conductors. The system also includes a multi-mode electromagnetic connector, that includes a housing, and optical transducers disposed between a pair of electrical terminals that have insulation piercing free ends. A cover that latchingly engages the housing applies pressure to the ribbon cable, forcing the ribbon cable to be pierced by the upper ends of the terminals and pressing the optical conductor into optical communication with said transducers. The electrical conductors carry electrical power comprising alternating current, at a frequency ranging between 10 and 30 kHz.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2002Date of Patent: June 22, 2004Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: James K. Gehrke, Daniel R. Schroeder, Robert R. Kornowski

Patent number: 5951152Abstract: An apparatus and method of manufacture for a light source housing apparatus. The housing is insert molded around a plurality of electrically separated leads and defines a cavity. A portion of each lead is exposed along a bottom surface of the housing. Two or more leads have terminal portions near a rear surface of the housing. A lead, which can be used to protect against electrostatic discharge, is also mounted along a front face of the housing and terminates at a ring portion which defines an opening that is aligned with the cavity. The opening of the ring portion is preferably sized and shaped to correspond to an outer peripheral surface of a lens, lightpipe or other optical media, so that the lens can be inserted through the ring portion and into the cavity. A light source, such as an LED, is mounted within a cutout of the housing. The housing is manufactured using lead sets each having pre-formed leads indexed by a leadframe through an injection mold to form the housing around each lead set.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 1997Date of Patent: September 14, 1999Assignee: Lumex, Inc.Inventors: Henrick A. Zabawski, Robert R. Kornowski, Chong S. Kim, Chris L. Tsakiridis, Daniel R. Schroeder, Matthew A. Stahl

Patent number: 5742007Abstract: An electronic device package (10) is resistant to rupture at high temperatures. The electronic device package (10) includes a cap (14) having side-walls (18) coupled to a support structure (11) via an adhesive (15). The cap (14) is permeable to gases including water vapor. The side-walls (18) of the cap (14) are made of a porous ceramic material which absorbs a portion of the adhesive (15) via capillary action while curing the adhesive (15).Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 1996Date of Patent: April 21, 1998Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Robert R. Kornowski, Carl Missele, Thomas W. Rice

Patent number: 5248848Abstract: An electronic device package includes a portion that functions as a membrane to allow small molecules, such as gas molecules, to relatively freely traverse the housing boundary, while simultaneously substantially preventing large molecules, such as liquid molecules, from entering the confines of the housing. As a result, the package can be readily used in reflow processing without risking damage to the boundary integrity between the housing and the support surface that supports both the electronic device and the housing.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 1989Date of Patent: September 28, 1993Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Robert R. Kornowski, Carl Missele
