ADAPTER CARD WITH COMPRESSION ATTACHED MEMORY MODULES

An adapter card with compression-attached memory modules that can be inserted into a conventional vertical connector enables use of CAMMs in systems with vertical memory module connectors. In one example, an adapter card or riser card includes a printed circuit board (PCB) having an edge to be received by a dual-inline memory module (DIMM) connector. First conductive contacts proximate to the edge of the PCB are to be received by the DIMM connector, enabling the first conductive contacts to couple with contacts of the DIMM connector. Second conductive contacts on a face of the PCB are to couple with a first compression attached memory module (CAMM) via a first compression mount technology (CMT) connector. The adapter card includes conductive traces on or in the PCB between the first conductive contacts and the second conductive contacts to couple the CAMM with the DIMM connector.

Connector retention mechanism for improved structural reliability

A connector includes mounting tabs that are extended relative to traditional mounting tabs. On a back side of the printed circuit board (PCB), the mounting tabs connect to a back plate. The mounting tabs extend through the PCB and connect with the back plate, which provides improved structural integrity. Depending on the connector, the use of the mounting tabs can use existing mounting holes for the connector and remove the need for additional mounting holes.

Mother substrate and display panel

A mother substrate and a display panel including the mother substrate are disclosed. The mother substrate includes: an input pad located on an edge of the mother substrate; and a sub-substrate. A switch array and one or more signal lines connected to the switch array are arranged in a display area of the sub-substrate. One end of the signal line lead out a first test portion, and another end of the signal line is connected to the input pad and lead out a second test portion. The first test portion and the second test portion are located on different conductive layers and are insulated from each other. Partial orthographic overlapping of the first test portion is overlapped with partial orthographic overlapping of the second test portion in the non-display area.

POWER CONVERSION MODULE USING CMT CONNECTOR

Power conversion modules using compression mount technology (CMT) connectors and associated apparatus and methods. Assemblies include a CMT connector that includes an array of spring-loaded CMT pins or contacts that are configured to contact respective pads on a pair of printed circuit board (PCBs), such as for VR module card or power conversion module and a motherboard. The power conversion modules in combination with the CMT connectors provide several advantages, including, a common VR module/power conversion module/motherboard footprint across OEM platforms and test hardware, just in time VR module attachment for improved inventory management, removable power delivery solution makes the platform more conducive to debug, in field servicing, and platform upgradable for higher power CPU/GPU/XPU.
