An electronic module has a first circuit board element, a second circuit board element, and a spacer. Together, the first circuit board element, the second circuit board element, and the spacer enclose a central cavity, in which components attached to the first circuit board element are accommodated. Respective annular circumferential microstructures are provided on a surface of the first circuit board element directed outward and on a surface of the second circuit board element directed outward, adjacent to an outer periphery of the first circuit board element. In this region, a sealing ring is formed, which has a form-closed connection to both the first and the second circuit board element by means of the microstructures of the first and the second circuit board element. The sealing ring can be made of a resistant plastic, which is molded on by injection molding in the liquid state in the region of the outer periphery of the first circuit board element and flows into recesses of the microstructures and, after the curing, forms the form-closed and sealing connection between the two circuit board elements and the sealing ring thereby formed.

Methods and systems for providing a user with content relevant to a location of interest to the user, when the user is determined to be at or near the location, are presented. The user's interest in the location may be determined based on queries about the location received from the user prior to the user arriving at the location. The queries received from the user about the location are used to build a location recommendation model, which generates personalized content relevant to the location and to one or more interest verticals identified for the user. The location recommendation model is built using a location recommendation engine that collects data about the user, the queried location, one or more associations between the user, the queried location, and/or one or more other users, as well as various other information related to the user's interests and the queried location.

An electronic component (E), including at least one circuit carrier (1), which is populated with a number of mechanical and/or electronic component parts (2 to 4) and has at least one contact opening (1.3) for forming a mechanical and/or electrical contact-connection point (KS) to at least one of the component parts (2 to 4), wherein at least one of the component parts (4) is at a distance from the circuit carrier (1), includes at least one electrically conductive housing (4.1) and at least one electrical contact element (4.2) projecting out of the housing (4.1), the contact element being insulated from the housing (4.1) and being connected at least in a materially bonded manner to the contact opening (1.3) of the circuit carrier (1), wherein at least one seal element (5) is arranged in the region of the contact-connection point (KS), in particular between the circuit carrier (1) and the housing (4) of the component part (4).

A shield enclosure includes a housing with a peripheral wall that defines a cavity, and a cover removably coupleable to the housing to at least partially seal the cavity. The cavity is sized to receive a printed circuit board therein. The housing shields the printed circuit board from electromagnetic interference and noise during noise figure testing of a radiofrequency component on the printed circuit board.

A module according to the present disclosure includes a circuit board, an electronic component on one of two principal surfaces of the circuit board, a connection conductor on the principal surface of the circuit board, and sealing resin on the principal surface of the circuit board. The electronic component and the connection conductor are covered with the sealing resin. The connection conductor includes a plate-shaped conductor and terminal sections. The plate-shaped conductor is disposed upright on the principal surface of the circuit board. The terminal sections extend from the plate-shaped conductor and away from the principal surface of the circuit board and are arranged side by side. Tip portions of the terminal sections are exposed at a surface of the sealing resin.

The disclosure generally relates to a method of creating patterned metallic circuits (e.g., silver circuits) on a substrate (e.g., a ceramic substrate). A porous metal interlayer (e.g., porous nickel) is applied to the substrate to improve wetting and adhesion of the patterned metal circuit material to the substrate. The substrate is heated to a temperature sufficient to melt the patterned metal circuit material but not the porous metal interlayer. Spreading of molten metal circuit material on the substrate is controlled by the porous metal interlayer, which can itself be patterned, such as having a defined circuit pattern. Thick-film silver or other metal circuits can be custom designed in complicated shapes for high temperature/high power applications. The materials designated for the circuit design allows for a low-cost method of generating silver circuits other metal circuits on a ceramic substrate.
