  • Publication number: 20220181811
    Abstract: A card edge connector with a locking system, which may include a locking member integrally formed with a connector housing. The locking member may deflect upon insertion of an edge of a board into the connector and spring back to engage an opening in the board. The locking member and the opening in the board may have perimeters that are rounded, allowing relative rotation about an axis through the opening even though the board is locked within the connector. Such a configuration may provide a simple and secure locking system. Such a configuration may support connecting two parallel boards, each with a card edge connector, through a riser board with opposite ends inserted into the two connectors. Relative rotation of the board with respect to the connectors enables skew, in a direction parallel to the surfaces of the parallel boards, while securing each of those boards to the riser board.

  • Publication number: 20220094099
    Abstract: A configurable electrical connector. The electrical connector includes conductors held by a housing. Contact tails of the conductors extend from a mounting face of the housing therethrough. The mounting face of the housing includes a slot. In some embodiments, the slot exposes portions of ground conductors of the connector and receives a member coupled with the exposed portions of the ground conductors such that the electrical connector can meet high performance requirements. The member may be inserted into or molded in the slot. In some embodiments, the slot may or may not receive a member that is insulative when the electrical connector does not need to meet the high performance requirements. Such a configuration enables the same connector to be compatible with multiple performance protocols.

  • Publication number: 20210399449
    Abstract: A high density edge connector that provides robust operation and good signal integrity. The connector is configurable to have sections tailored for high speed signals, which may be differential, or low speed signals. The connector may be assembled from signal terminals and ground terminals, either of which may be mounted within an insulative housing of the connector at any location along a row aligned with a slot of a mating interface. Shield members or lossy members may optionally be included for high speed segments, either or both of which may be electrically coupled to the ground terminals. Insertion and retention force may be limited, despite a dense array of contacts pressing on a card inserted into the connector by shaping the portions of the signal or ground contacts that act as beams generating that force.

  • Publication number: 20210382803
    Abstract: A method for regulating a chip temperature, belong to the technical field of integrated chips, and applied to multi-core processor chips. The method comprises: pre-setting a threshold set consisting of multiple thresholds gradated by magnitude; and further comprises: step S1, detecting, in real time, a real-time temperature produced by a processor chip; step S2, judging whether the real-time temperature has exceeded one or more thresholds in the threshold set; and step S3, using a pre-set strategy to shut down a pre-set rule number of cores corresponding to the number of thresholds exceeded by the real-time temperature. The method for regulating a chip temperature can deal with the scenario where a chip temperature is higher than a threshold due to continuous load increase, and has high reliability.
