Abstract: Disclosed herein is an enhanced magnetic directional mount for mounting, positioning, and orienting an electronic device such as a camera. In this enhanced mount, the base mounting surface is configured to maximize the extent of adjustment and ease of adjustability of the electronic device, and the base mounting surface and housing mounting surface are designed to provide smooth and secure movement in the electronic device position. Additionally, the enhanced magnetic mount includes attachments designed to affix the magnetic mount to a horizontal or vertical flat surface such as a desk or a wall, and an attachment designed to effectively mount and use the electronic device from a window.

Abstract: A system and method for providing high voltage resistance capability in a receptacle apparatus for accepting a high-density compliant pin connector. A plurality of high-density compliant pin through-holes are formed in a printed circuit board for receiving the pins of the high-density compliant pin connector. The through-holes are plated using an electrically conductive material, whereby conductive pads are formed around the plated through-holes on at least one side of the printed circuit board. Thereafter, the conductive pads around the plated through-holes on the printed circuit board are removed by controlled depth back-drilling so as to increase the inter-pad clearance of the through-holes for withstanding foreign voltages.
