MAGNETIC MATRIX CONNECTOR FOR HIGH DENSITY, SOFT NEURAL INTERFACE
A soft neural interface connector apparatus includes a PCB having a two-dimensional array of solder balls, a transparent top board, a cushioning layer on one side of the transparent top board, and a soft neural interface including a flexible and/or stretchable microelectrode array (MEA) through which neural signals are obtained or delivered. The MEA includes a two-dimensional array of contact pads corresponding to the array of solder balls. The PCB, the transparent top board, the cushioning layer, and the MEA are stacked together such that the MEA is between the cushioning layer and the PCB, and the contact pads are aligned with and in electrical contact with associated solder balls. A magnetic connector system having at least one magnetic connector component on the transparent top board is magnetically connected with at least one magnetic connector component on the PCB to press the contact pads and associated solder balls together.
Positioning fastener
A positioning fastener includes a base having a seat plate extended therefrom, a fixing portion disposed below the base for fastening to an electronic substrate, and an elastic positioning structure disposed above the base and including an urging plate, a pressing plate connected to the urging plate, a positioning space defined therein and a positioning member disposed at a bottom side thereof. The urging plate and the pressing plate are squeezed backwards and elastically deformed by a circuit board that is rotated downward so that the circuit board passes the urging plate and moves into the positioning space of the elastic positioning structure and a suspended board edge of the circuit board is secured in position by the positioning member. The pressing plate can be pressed by an external force to lift the urging plate, allowing the circuit board to be rotated in direction away from the positioning member.
Securing mechanism for use with processor module
A securing mechanism for retaining a CPU to an electrical connector mounted upon a top surface of the PCB, includes a fastening device mounted upon the top surface of the PCB beside the electrical connector, and a back plate mounted upon the undersurface of the PCB and located between the PCB and a metallic case. The fastening device cooperates with the back plate to be secured to the PCB via a first set of fixing units. The case forms an opening/recessed region to receive a thickened central region of the back plate and is secured to the back plate via a second set of fixing units surrounding said opening. The thickened central region is fully received within the opening in the vertical direction. The first set of fixing units are located in the central region of the back plate.
