  • Patent number: 11963296
    Abstract: A cavity printed circuit board (PCB) that allows electronic components with different dimensions disposed therein is provided. A cavity with a desired dimension is formed in the cavity PCB where the electronic components may be mounted and soldered therein. The cavity formed in the cavity PCB may also provide additional flexibility regarding placements and locations where the electronic components may be disposed in the 3D vertical stacking and packaging of the IC devices so as to provide alternatives of using different types of wiring or interconnection structures or fine-pitch connection lines among the electronic components.

  • Publication number: 20240103593
    Abstract: A power adapter can include a power input node, a communication channel node, an output node, a low-pass filter, a modulator, and a high-pass filter. The low-pass filter can include a low-pass input node coupled to the power input node and a low-pass output node coupled to the output node. The modulator can include a modulator input node coupled to the communication channel node and a modulator output node. The modulator can be configured to modulate data received from the communication channel node onto a signal having a higher frequency than a data-carrying signal carrying the data received from the communication channel node and output the modulated data to a high-pass input node of a high-pass filter. The high-pass filter can include the high-pass input node coupled to the modulator output node and a high-pass output node coupled to the output node.
