Thermal bridge for an electrical component
A thermal bridge includes an upper bridge assembly including upper plates arranged in an upper plate stack and a lower bridge assembly including lower plates arranged in a lower plate stack. Outer ends of the lower plates face and thermally couple to an electrical component. The upper plates and the lower plates are arranged in plate pairs. A spring element forces the upper plates and the lower plates of the plate pairs apart. The upper plates include upper limit tabs and the lower plates include lower limit tabs. The upper limit tabs and the lower limit tabs operate to limit spreading apart of the upper plates and the lower plates against the opening forces of the spring element.
Electronic apparatus
According to an embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a printed circuit board including a plurality of devices that include a nonvolatile memory package and a controller package configured to control the nonvolatile memory package, and a housing accommodating the printed circuit board. The housing includes an opening on a surface constituting the housing. An encryption device among the plurality of devices is present in a first region. The first region is a region on the printed circuit board that is not irradiated with light emitted from a light source placed at the opening. The encryption device is a device used for an encryption process of data to be stored into the nonvolatile memory package.
HEAT RADIATION MODULE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME
A heat radiation module comprises: a bracket having an upper surface, a lower surface, and a first side surface for connecting the upper surface and the lower surface, and a second side surface facing the first side surface; and a heat dissipation passage disposed in the bracket, wherein the bracket includes a groove formed on at least one surface among the upper surface and the lower surface, the heat dissipation passage includes a first passage disposed between one side of the groove and the first side surface and a second passage disposed between the other side of the groove and the second side surface, and a part of the first passage overlaps the groove extending in a direction from the first side surface toward the second side surface.
Low inductance power module with vertical power loop structure and insulated baseplates
A low inductance power module with low power loop inductance and high-power density is provided. The power module may include a vertical power loop structure, a cooling layer, and a thermal dissipation structure. The vertical power loop structure may utilize a substrate bottom conduction layer for electrical conduction. The thermal dissipation structure may be disposed between the substrate bottom conduction layer and the cooling layer. The vertical power loop structure may include integrated decoupling capacitors. Alternatively, the structure may include no integrated decoupling capacitors. The vertical power loop structure may include one or more half-bridge structures connected in parallel, each with its own integrated decoupling capacitors. The vertical power loop structure reduces power loop inductance in the power module, and the thermal dissipation structure provides electrical insulation, mechanical support, and thermal conduction.

Security Camera with Angled Cable Attachment for Increased Downward-Viewing Angle
This document describes a security camera with an angled cable attachment for an increased downward viewing angle. The security camera is battery-powered and can be magnetically coupled to a mounting device and electrically connected to another device via a cable. The cable has a cable attachment that, when coupled to the security camera, is angled toward a front of the security camera. This cable angle enables an increased downward tilt angle of the security camera by reducing interference of the cable attachment with the mounting device when the security camera is tilted downward. The security camera also has exposed contacts on a printed circuit board that connect with pins on the cable attachment.
Semiconductor package thermal spreader having integrated RF/EMI shielding and antenna elements
A cost-effective process and structure is provided for a thermal dissipation element for semiconductor device packages incorporating antennas that can incorporate RF/EMI shielding from the antenna elements. Certain embodiments provide incorporated antenna element structures as part of the same process. These features are provided using a selectively-plated thermal dissipation structure that is formed to provide shielding around semiconductor device dies that are part of the package. In some embodiments, the thermal dissipation structure is molded to the semiconductor device, thereby permitting a thermally efficient close coupling between a device die requiring thermal dissipation and the dissipation structure itself.
