  • Patent number: 9854666
    Abstract: A printed circuit board includes a differential pair of transmission lines. The differential pair of transmission lines includes a first signal transmission line and a second signal transmission line. The first signal transmission line includes a first via and a second via. The second transmission line includes a third via and a fourth via. A first distance between a center of the first via and a center of the third via is equal to a first value. A second distance between a center of the second via and a center of the fourth via is equal to the first value. A third distance between the center of the first via and the center of the second via is equal to a second value. A fourth distance between the center of the third via and the center of the fourth via is not equal to the second value.

  • Patent number: 9544991
    Abstract: Multi-pair differential lines printed circuit board common mode filters are generally described. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a multi-layer printed circuit board, a first signal line and a second signal line forming a first differential pair on a first layer of the printed circuit board, a second differential pair on the first layer of the printed circuit board, and a common mode filter on a second layer of the printed circuit board, the common mode filter comprising an absence of a predominantly occurring dielectric material of the printed circuit board, the common mode filter spanning an area directly below at least a portion of both the first and the second differential pairs. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 7881678
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a radio frequency (RF) device for communicating on a wireless network. The device includes an antenna coupled to an RF circuit. The device further includes a body housing the RF circuit and the antenna. The device yet further includes a support member extending from the body. The support member is configured to be coupled to an object. The support member is prevented from moving laterally and vertically relative to the object when coupled to the object. The support member and body are configured to allow the body and the antenna to rotate about an axis when the support member is prevented from moving laterally and vertically relative to the object.

  • Patent number: 6640270
    Abstract: A terminal connection box for connecting a computer and an external peripheral device. The terminal connection box comprises: a plurality of side walls forming a housing, an enhanced signal circuit located inside the housing for converting and boosting signals, a first cable connecting the enhanced signal circuit and the computer, and a 1394 type plug connecting the enhanced signal circuit and the external peripheral device. The 1394 type signals coming from the external peripheral device are boosted and converted by the enhanced signal circuit so as to be compatible to the computer. Signals coming from the computer are boosted and converted into 1394 type signals by the enhanced signal circuit so as to be compatible to the external peripheral device. Such that the external peripheral device and the computer can perform bi-directional intercommunications with their signal boosted by the enhanced signal circuit.

  • Patent number: 5382876
    Abstract: A cord connection structure for connecting a ballast circuit and a starter circuit in which an output cord from a starter circuit unit mounted on a lamp body is connected to a discharge bulb inserted into a bulb insertion hole, and an output cord from a ballast circuit unit disposed in the vicinity of a starter circuit unit is removably connected through a connector to a connector connection part (receptacle) provided in the starter circuit unit, characterized in that a connector slip-off preventing protector covering the connector coupled into the connector connection part is provided around the connector connection part (receptacle). Such a construction makes it difficult for a general user to connect and disconnect the connector of high voltage to and from the connector connection part.

  • Patent number: 5094220
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for providing improved electrical contact between an electrical conductor and an electrode. The device is characterized in that it comprises a fixed position nut-forming contact element made of an electrically conductive material and including an axial bore through which the electrode passes, the electrical conductor terminating at the nut-forming element in the form of a connection tab. The nut-forming element advantageously comprises two half-disks for facilitating assembly and disassembly while providing improved electrical contact during operation.
