A socket (130) employs a substrate (310) including a conductive network. An array of first contacts (136) is on a top surface of the substrate (310) and arranged to engage an integrated circuit (110). An array of second contacts (138) is on a bottom surface of the substrate (310) and arranged to engage a circuit board (120). The conductive network electrically connects the first contacts (136) respectively to the second contacts (138), and the first contacts (136) include a routed first contact (136′) that the conductive network routes horizontally in or on the substrate (310).

A press-fit mounting peg (2) is described for retaining a component such as a stepped-motor on a circuit board (21). The mounting peg (2) is securable in a mounted position by a first axial displacement of a locking pin (17) along a pin channel (16) of the press-fit mounting peg (2) in a first axial direction along a longitudinal axis of the press-fit mounting peg (2) from a first axial position to a second axial position. The pin channel (16) comprises at least one pin displacement stop (13, 20) for stopping a second axial displacement of the locking pin (17) out of the second axial position.

A semiconductor module comprises a semiconductor device; a substrate, on which the semiconductor device is attached; a molded encasing, into which the semiconductor device and the substrate are molded; at least one power terminal partially molded into the encasing and protruding from the encasing, which power terminal is electrically connected with the semiconductor device; and an encased circuit board at least partially molded into the encasing and protruding over the substrate in an extension direction of the substrate, wherein the encased circuit board comprises at least one receptacle for a pin, the receptacle being electrically connected via the encased circuit board with a control input of the semiconductor device.

Example human-machine interface (HMI) assemblies are disclosed. One example HMI assembly includes a fascia, a touch film having a first raised contact, a PCB having a second raised contact, and a piercing member passing through the first and second contacts to electrically couple the first and second contacts.

A method for producing a connection contact for a sensor or an actuator of a vehicle, the method including: providing a printed circuit board having at least one electronic component arranged thereon and having an opening; inserting a contact bushing into the opening; and combined soldering the at least one component to the printed circuit board and the contact bushing to the printed circuit board in one task. Also described are a related circuit board and a vehicle control unit.

LED board interconnect schemes for illuminable assemblies are provided. Multiple LED boards may form a partial perimeter along an illuminable assembly. The multiple LED boards and interconnects must fit within a limited width and height of the illuminable assembly. In some implementations, an interconnect board and spring connectors are used to provide a low-profile electrical interconnection while maintaining co-planarity of the LEDs across the LED boards.

A lighting fixture, including a bus printed circuit board that receives power from an external source, may be configured with programmable drivers. The bus printed circuit board has mechanical features for receiving the programmable drivers to mechanically mount the programmable driver to the bus printed circuit board. Each programmable driver may have a set of spring contacts positioned to engage exposed pads of the bus printed circuit board when the programmable driver is mounted to the bus printed circuit board, to supply power to the programmable driver. The lighting fixture further includes one or more light sources driven by the programmable drivers.
