  • Publication number: 20250071904
    Abstract: An integrated coil module includes: a substrate; a plurality of inductor elements arranged on the substrate with a spacing distance between adjacent inductor elements, the inductor elements each including an iron core, first and second coils wound on the iron core, first and second flanges at two sides of the iron core, and a third flange arranged on the iron core and between the first and second flanges, the first flange including first and second electrodes, the second flange including third and fourth electrodes, the third flange including fifth and sixth electrodes; and a plate arranged atop the plurality of inductor elements to cover the inductor elements. As such, the plurality of inductor elements are integrated together as a one-piece structure to thereby simplify the SMT manufacturing process and shorten the spacing distance between the inductor elements so as to reduce the area of the substrate occupied thereby.

  • Publication number: 20240331928
    Abstract: The inductor-type network transformer includes a circuit board, at least one transformer member mounted to the circuit board, at least one peripheral element mounted to the circuit board to a side of the transformer member, and a casing configured on the circuit board completely covering the at least one transformer member, and the at least one peripheral element. The present invention configures at least a transformer member and at least a peripheral element on a circuit board through Surface Mount Technology (SMT), which are all entirely covered by a casing, thereby avoiding the conventional manual process's complexity and inconvenience, and enhancing production cost and efficiency. As the peripheral elements, such as Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes, are also integrated inside the casing, the network transformer is more robust to electrical shocks. The integration of the peripheral elements inside the casing also helps to product miniaturization.

  • Publication number: 20240331931
    Abstract: The capacitor-type network transformer includes a circuit board, at least one a transformer member mounted to the circuit board, at least one peripheral element mounted to the circuit board to a side of the transformer member, and a casing configured on the circuit board completely covering the transformer members and the peripheral elements. Each transformer member includes a transformer, a common-mode filter, and at least one capacitor. The present invention configures at least a transformer member and at least a peripheral element on a circuit board through Surface Mount Technology (SMT), which are all entirely covered by a casing, thereby avoiding the conventional manual process's complexity and inconvenience, and enhancing production cost and efficiency. As the peripheral elements, such as Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) diodes, are also integrated inside the casing, the network transformer is more robust to electrical shocks and easier for product miniaturization.

  • Publication number: 20240087750
    Abstract: h A method for using a trained machine learning model to predict risk of incident opioid use disorder (OUD) and/or of N an opioid overdose episode for a subject. The method comprises using at least one computer hardware processor to perform: accessing data associated with the subject, wherein the data comprises values for a plurality of predictors; generating input features for the trained machine learning model from the data; and providing the input features as input to the trained machine learning model to obtain an output indicative of the risk of OUD and/or of the opioid overdose episode for the subject, wherein the trained machine learning model comprises a first plurality of values for a respective first plurality of parameters, the first plurality of values used by the at least one computer hardware processor to obtain the output from the input features.
