The present invention relates to an electronic module. In particular, to an electronic module which includes one or more components embedded in an installation base. The electronic module can be a module like a circuit board, which includes several components, which are connected to each other electrically, through conducting structures manufactured in the module. The components can be passive components, microcircuits, semiconductor components, or other similar components. Components that are typically connected to a circuit board form one group of components. Another important group of components are components that are typically packaged for connection to a circuit board. The electronic modules to which the invention relates can, of course, also include other types of components.

A method of manufacturing a lead frame includes providing an electrically conductive layer having a plurality of holes at a top surface. The plurality of holes form a structure of leads and a die pad on the electrically conductive layer. The plurality of holes are filled with a non-conductive material. Next; an electrically conductive foil is attached on the top surface of the electrically conductive layer and the non-conductive epoxy material. The, the electrically conductive foil is etched to create a network of leads, die pad, bus lines, dam bars and tie lines, wherein the bus lines connect the leads to the dam bar, the dam bar is connected to the tie line and the tie line is connected to the die pad.

A method of assembling a flip chip on a leadframe package. A locking dual leadframe (LDLF) includes a top metal frame portion including protruding features and a die pad and a bottom metal frame portion having apertures positioned lateral to the die pad. The protruding features and apertures are similarly sized and alignable. A flipped integrated circuit (IC) die having a bottomside and a topside including circuitry connected to bond pads having solder balls on the bond pads is mounted with its topside onto the top metal frame portion. The top metal frame portion is aligned to the bottom metal frame portion so that the protruding features are aligned to the apertures. The bottomside of the IC die is pressed with respect to a top surface of the bottom frame portion, wherein the protruding features penetrate into the apertures.

A method includes the steps: providing a pre-structure comprising a first pre-embedded member and a second pre-embedded member, wherein the first pre-embedded member has a first positioning segment, a connecting segment connected to the first positioning segment, a first piece, and a bridge; the second pre-embedded member has a second positioning segment, a hanging segment connected to the second positioning segment, and a second piece, wherein the bridge is connected to the connecting segment and the second piece; fixing the bridge onto the hanging segment; segmenting the connecting portion of the bridge and the connecting segment to form a first embedded member, which is defined by the first positioning segment, the connecting segment and the first piece, and a second embedded member, which is defined by the second positioning segment, the hanging segment, the second piece and the bridge; separating the second embedded member from the first embedded member.

A light emitting device includes a support having an interstice and at least one LED located in the interstice and at least one of a waveguide or an optical launch having a transparent material encapsulating the at least one LED located in the interstice.

A backing includes a plurality of backing plates that are laminated. Each backing plate includes a lead row and a backing material. Each lead includes a lead wire and an insulating coating. The insulating coating is integrated with the backing material, and an adhesive layer between them does not exist. Short-circuit between the leads may be prevented or reduced by the insulating coating. The backing plate is manufactured by a screen printing method.

A housing for an optical component is provided in various embodiments. The housing has a leadframe section and a mold compound. The leadframe section is formed from an electrically conductive material and has a first side and a second side facing away from the first side. On the first side, the leadframe section has at least one first receiving region for receiving the optical component and/or at least one contact region for electrically contacting the optical component. The leadframe section has at least one trench which is formed in the leadframe section on the first side thereof alongside the receiving region and/or the contact region. The leadframe section is embedded in the mold compound. The mold compound has at least one receiving recess in which the first receiving region and/or the contact region and the trench are arranged.

An apparatus and method for crosstalk compensation in a jack of a modular communications connector includes a flexible printed circuit board connected to jack contacts and to connections to a network cable. The flexible printed circuit board includes conductive traces arranged as one or more couplings to provide crosstalk compensation.

In an electronic component, an outer electrode includes a sintered layer containing a sintered metal, an insulation layer containing an electric insulation material, and a Sn-containing layer containing Sn. The sintered layer extends from each of end surfaces of an element assembly onto at least one main surface thereof so as to cover each of the end surfaces of the element assembly. The insulation layer is directly provided on the sintered layer at each of the end surfaces of the element assembly so as to extend in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to a side surface of the element assembly, and defines a portion of a surface of the outer electrode. The Sn-containing layer covers the sintered layer except for a portion of the sintered layer that is covered by the insulation layer, and constitutes another portion of the surface of the outer electrode.

A method of forming at least one Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) includes patterning a wiring layer to form at least one fixed plate and forming a sacrificial material on the wiring layer.
