  • Patent number: 11095295
    Abstract: A spur measurement system uses a first device with a spur cancellation circuit that cancel spurs responsive to a frequency control word identifying a spurious tone of interest. A device under test generates a clock signal and supplies the clock signal to the first device through an optional divider. The spur cancellation circuit in the first device generates sine and cosine weights at the spurious tone of interest as part of the spur cancellation process. A first magnitude of the spurious tone in a phase-locked loop in the first device is determined according to the sine and cosine weights and a second magnitude of the spurious tone in the clock signal is determined by the first magnitude divided by gains associated with the first device.

    Abstract: An electronics housing includes a base body and a metal plating layer formed on a surface of the base body. The base body includes an upper cover, a lower cover and a metal ring. The upper cover and the lower cover are integrally fused by virtue of an ultra high frequency technology, and the metal ring is embedded between the upper cover and the lower cover. A nickel-deposited layer of the metal plating layer is electrolessly deposited on the surface of the base body. A copper layer of the metal plating layer is plated on the nickel-deposited layer. A nano-nickel layer of the metal plating layer is plated on the copper layer. A surface decoration layer of the metal plating layer is plated on the nano-nickel layer. The base body together with the metal plating layer defines at least one assembling hole.

  • Patent number: 9252544
    Abstract: A plugging and unplugging module case includes a body and a positioning element. The body has a plugging and unplugging opening. The positioning element has a positioning elastic body and a second engaging unit. The positioning element is disposed outside the body. The second engaging unit is a second engaging post for engaging with the first engaging hole. The body is of lower hardness than the positioning element. Hence, the positioning element quickly engages with the body, whereas the positioning elastic body is quickly positioned at a positioning hole so as to enhance the efficiency of the assembly of the plugging and unplugging module.

  • Patent number: 9042119
    Abstract: A lightweight radio/CD player for vehicular application is virtually “fastenerless” and includes a case and frontal interface formed of polymer based material that is molded to provide details to accept audio devices such as playback mechanisms (if desired) and radio receivers, as well as the circuit boards required for electrical control and display. The case and frontal interface are of composite structure, including an insert molded electrically conductive wire mesh screen that has been pre-formed to contour with the molding operation. The wire mesh provides EMC, RFI, BCI and ESD shielding and grounding of the circuit boards via exposed wire mesh pads and adjacent ground clips. The major components and subassemblies self-interconnect by integral guide and connection features effecting “slide lock” and “snap lock” self-interconnection. The major components and subassemblies self-ground by establishing an interference fit with exposed, resilient, embossed portions of wire mesh.

  • Publication number: 20150129296
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a shielding system for conductor cables as well as to a method for producing said shielding system. The system is characterized in that it comprises a corrugated tube (20) coated with one or more thin films of high electrical conductivity material (30) which are reversibly adhered to the surface of said corrugated tube (20) so that said coating can be uncoupled from the corrugated tube due to high bending values of the tube itself. The shielding system according to the present invention therefore combines the excellent shielding efficacy values of a system having thin metal films with the excellent flexibility properties of a corrugated plastic tube.
