Heat dissipation for substrate assemblies
Various embodiments described herein include systems, methods and/or devices used to dissipate heat generated by electronic components in an electronic system (e.g., a memory system including closely spaced memory modules). Specifically, a heat sink includes an attachment structure and a tab. The attachment structure defines a slot configured to receive an edge of a substrate and thermally couple to a ground plane of the substrate. The tab is located opposite to the slot, and is configured to slide into a card guide slot of an assembly rack, such that in use, heat generated by at least one electronic component on the substrate is at least partially transferred through the ground plane to the attachment structure to be dissipated.
Housing for an electronic device internal walls
An electronic device may include a housing and a printed circuit board, where the housing has a front cover and a back cover that at least substantially enclose the printed circuit board. In some instances, the back cover may include an outer shell and one or more inward extending walls that extend inwardly toward the printed circuit board. In some cases, the inward extending walls, the outer shell, and the printed circuit board define two or more internal pockets within the housing. The pockets may, in some cases, separate one region of the printed circuit board from another region of the printed circuit board. In some instances, the one or more inward extending walls may be configured to provide support to a back side of the printed circuit board, which may be particularly useful when a touch screen display is mounted on a front side of the printed circuit board.
Temperature compensation system for an electronic device
Systems and methods herein include features for compensating a temperature reading of a thermostat. The thermostat may include a housing and one or more temperature sensors within the housing. The thermostat may sense a temperature using one or more of the temperature sensors. A processor and/or memory of the thermostat may be capable of and/or configured to compensate the sensed temperature with a first temperature compensation model and compensate the sensed temperature with a second temperature compensation model. During compensation of the sensed temperature, the system may transition from compensating the sensed temperature with the first temperature compensation model to compensating the sensed temperature with the second temperature compensation model over time and independent of the sensed temperature.
Thermostat with display and printed circuit board
An electronic assembly may have a display, a display holder, and a printed circuit board (PCB). The display may have a front side for viewing the display, a back side, and side walls extending between the front side and the back side. The display holder may have a recess for receiving at least part of the display, where the display holder may extend adjacent part of the front side of the display and adjacent at least part of the side walls of the display. The PCB may be secured relative to the display holder and adjacent the back side of the display. The PCB may be in operative communication with the display. In some cases, a spacer may be situated between the back side of the display and the PCB.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING PARTIAL DISCHARGE IN HIGH VOLTAGE PLANAR TRANSFORMERS
A device includes a printed circuit board (PCB). The device may also include a high voltage coil disposed on the PCB and a low voltage coil disposed on the PCB. Further, a conductive shield forms a three-dimensional enclosure around the high voltage coil and confines an electric field generated by the device to the PCB.
