A passive cable adaptor for connecting a data source device with a display device is described. The adaptor has a packet-based interface connector at one end, the connector having a positive main link pin, a negative main link pin, a positive auxiliary channel pin, and a negative auxiliary channel pin. At the other end is a micro serial interface connector, wherein multimedia content is transmitted over the cable adaptor and electrical power is supplied over the cable adaptor simultaneously. The cable adaptor has an auxiliary and hot plug detect (HPD) controller utilized to map the auxiliary channel and HPD signals of the packet-based digital display to the micro serial interface ID signal.

Apparatus and methods for inserting and retention testing an electrically conductive contact in an electrical connector. The method includes the following steps: manually partially inserting the contact into a hole formed inside the electrical connector; inserting the contact further into the hole by pushing the contact along an axis using an insertion tip that is aligned with the axis and that displaces in a first direction along the axis during inserting; and after inserting the contact further into the hole, testing retention of the contact inside the electrical connector by pushing the contact along the axis using a test probe that is aligned with the axis and that displaces in a second direction opposite to the first direction during retention testing. The force exerted by the test probe on the contact is less than a specified contact retention force. The method further includes generating an alert signal if the test probe displaces along the axis in the second direction by more than a specified distance during retention testing.

A filler-containing film has a structure in which fillers are held in a binder resin layer. The average particle diameter of the fillers is 1 to 50 μm, the total thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 times or more and 2 times or less the average particle diameter of the fillers, and the ratio Lq/Lp of, relative to the minimum inter-filler distance Lp at one end of the filler-containing film in a long-side direction, a minimum inter-filler distance Lq at the other end at least 5 m away from the one end in the film long-side direction is 1.2 or less. The fillers are preferably arranged in a lattice form.
