Described are various configurations of high-speed via structures. Various embodiments can reduce or entirely eliminate insertion loss in high-speed signal processing environments by using impedance compensation structures that decrease a mismatch in components of a circuit. An impedance compensation structure can include a metallic structure placed near a via to lower an impedance difference between the via and a conductive pathway connected to the via.

A transmission line member includes a base body extending along a transmission direction of a high-frequency signal, and a first transmission line, a second transmission line, and a third transmission line. The base body includes a first portion including the first transmission line, a second portion including the second transmission line, and a third portion including the third transmission line. The second portion is connected between the first and third portions. A thickness of the second portion is smaller than a thickness of the first and third portions. The second transmission line includes only a conductor pattern extending more in the transmission direction than in a direction of the thickness.

An anti-interference circuit board and a terminal, where the anti-interference circuit board includes a substrate having a first surface and a first region for placing a magnetometer is disposed on the first surface. A plurality of circuit layers are disposed in the substrate in a stacked manner. The first functional circuit and the second functional circuit are disposed to compensate for interference to the magnetometer in the first region, and during disposing, the first functional circuit and the second functional circuit are located below the magnetometer to reduce an occupied surface area of the anti-interference circuit board.

In one example, a flexible circuit board includes a signal line disposed between a first ground and a second ground; a dielectric disposed between the first ground and the signal line and between the second ground and the signal line; a cover layer disposed below the first ground and having openings formed therein such that the first ground is exposed at certain intervals; and a position alignment portion formed across the opening and configured to bisect an area of the opening.

A light distribution method is for an adaptive driving beam headlamp system including a light emitting device, an on-board camera and an electronic control unit. The light distribution method includes: obtaining data indicative of a state in front of a vehicle by the on-board camera; computing one or more of: attributes of an object in front of the vehicle; attributes of a vehicle ahead; a speed of the vehicle ahead; a distance between vehicles; brightness of the object; and a road shape; determining a light distribution pattern; determining a control amount indicative of at least one of an ON or OFF state of each of the light emitting elements and an applied power to each of the light emitting elements according to the light distribution pattern determined; and controlling driving of the adaptive driving beam headlamp system based on the control amount determined.

According to one embodiment, a detection device includes a substrate, detection electrode, terminal formed of a metal material, lead, coating layer, conductive adhesion layer, and circuit board. The lead connects the electrode and the terminal. The coating layer covers the electrode and the lead, and partly covers the terminal. The adhesion layer covers a part of the terminal exposed from the coating layer and covers a part of the coating layer. The circuit board is connected to the terminal with the adhesion layer interposed therebetween. At least in an overlapping area where the adhesion layer covers the coating layer, an area of the metal material per unit area is smaller than that of the other area of the terminal.

In various embodiments, a chip card module is provided. The chip card module includes a chip card module contact array having six contact pads that are arranged in two rows having three contact pads each in accordance with ISO 7816, and three additional contact pads that are arranged between the two rows. Each additional contact pad is electrically conductively connected to a respective associated contact pad from a row from the two rows.
