Abstract: Electronic module with all-sided electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and methods of making same. The electronic module includes an encapsulated circuit board between a top plate and a conductive bottom plate, electrical leads extending from the circuit board through the bottom plate, and a continuous conductive coating substantially covering the entire electronic module except for a bottom surface of the bottom plate. The conductive coating forms direct, independent connections at least to the circuit board and the bottom plate. The conductive coating provides EMI shielding across the top and sides of the electronic module. The conductive bottom plate provides EMI shielding across the bottom of the electronic module. Methods of manufacturing include encapsulating a circuit board between a top plate and bottom plate, separating materials from the encapsulated circuit board to expose conductive traces on the circuit board and bottom plate, and coating the sawed device with a conductive coating.

Abstract: Technologies and techniques for displaying a set of documents having associated attribute data in a generated, map-like geographic representation. Documents may be assigned positions within the geographic representation according to the associated attribute data. The geographic representation may include multiple display levels respectively having different levels of detail associated with the documents. When the different display levels are rendered, the documents may be represented by topographical elements, attribute data, and/or document content. Rendered portions of the geographic representation may be overlaid with graphics to identify interrelated documents and visually connect the interrelated documents on a display device, thereby enabling a user to readily view the relationships between the documents. In visually connecting the interrelated documents, a document review path may be defined for a user to utilize in reviewing the interrelated documents.

Abstract: A system and method employ a hierarchical data structure wherein nodes in the structure have a parent/child as well as a temporal relationship. Accordingly, the parent-child relationship of various nodes may change as a function of time. This hierarchical structure is part of a system employed to schedule content on a web site or web page that changes over time.

Abstract: A power converter using a switching signal having at least three levels of amplitude, one of which amplitude levels has a zero amplitude level during a predetermined switching interval, is provided. The power converter includes a circuit module having first and second input terminals for receiving the switching signal. The circuit module in turn is made up of a first power transistor and second power transistor. Circuitry is electrically coupled to a predetermined one of the power transistors for maintaining a predetermined voltage level across the gate terminal of the predetermined one of the power transistors during the switching interval of zero amplitude. The predetermined voltage level is chosen to enable that predetermined power transistor to continue in a respective "on" state notwithstanding of the presence of the switching interval of substantially zero amplitude.

Abstract: Conventional joints between a fluid line and a body of a fluid injector are typically threaded or brazed. Such threaded joints are sometimes too bulky for certain engine compartments of limited space and such brazed joints are sometimes difficult to make with repeatable high quality.The present invention provides a relatively compact and inexpensive sealed joint for a fluid injector which includes a housing, a body, and a fluid line. The sealed joint is solely formed by an interference fit directly between an end portion of the fluid line and both the housing and an end portion of the body.
