20230154120 · 2023-05-18 ·

An adjustable frame assembly for augmented reality eyewear. The frame assembly includes a face portion for supporting at least one waveguide that creates an eye box, a support rest for supporting the face portion on a user, and a coupling for adjusting the position of the face portion relative to the support rest. This enables movement of the waveguide eye box relative to the support rest to position the eye box in front of the wearer's eyes.

Dual-spiral common-mode filter

Disclosed herein are dual-spiral common-mode filters, printed circuit boards (PCBs) comprising such dual-spiral common-mode filters, and devices comprising such dual-spiral common-mode filters and PCBs. A dual-spiral common-mode filter is patterned into the reference plane of a PCB. The dual-spiral common-mode filter comprises a first spiral portion connected to a second spiral portion. The spiral portions may be substantially identical, or mirror images of each other, or different from each other. One or more signal traces in a signal trace layer of the PCB pass over the dual-spiral common-mode filter. The disclosed dual-spiral common-mode filters can replace both conventional patterned ground structure (PGS) filters used for radio-frequency interference mitigation and the cutouts often used in the reference plane of a PCB to mitigate impedance mismatches due to DC blocking capacitors. Also disclosed herein are methods of making PCBs that include dual-spiral common-mode filters.
