ELECTRONIC DEVICE HAVING PAD STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18381942 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE HAVING PAD STRUCTURE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a housing and a printed circuit board (PCB) inside the housing. The PCB has a fastening hole and a pad structure. The pad structure consists of a first pad surrounding a portion of the fastening hole, a second pad spaced apart from the first pad in one direction, and a third pad spaced apart from the first pad in a different direction. The PCB also has a first electronic component connected to the second pad. The device further includes a metal plate with a first plate area on the first pad and a second plate area extending from the first plate area and provided on either the second pad or the third pad.
- The electronic device has a housing and a PCB with a fastening hole and a pad structure.
- The pad structure includes a first pad surrounding part of the fastening hole, a second pad in one direction, and a third pad in a different direction.
- The PCB also has a first electronic component connected to the second pad.
- The device includes a metal plate with a first plate area on the first pad and a second plate area extending from the first plate area on either the second pad or the third pad.
Potential Applications:
- This technology can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, or any other device that requires a PCB and fastening components.
- It can be applied in industries that rely on electronic devices, such as telecommunications, consumer electronics, automotive, and aerospace.
Problems Solved:
- The pad structure provides a secure and reliable fastening mechanism for the electronic device, ensuring the stability and durability of the components.
- The metal plate helps in distributing heat generated by the electronic components, preventing overheating and potential damage.
- The design of the pad structure allows for flexibility in the placement and connection of electronic components on the PCB.
Benefits:
- The fastening hole and pad structure provide a strong and secure attachment for the electronic components, reducing the risk of detachment or damage during use or transportation.
- The metal plate helps in dissipating heat, improving the overall performance and lifespan of the electronic device.
- The design of the pad structure allows for efficient and flexible PCB layout, enabling easier assembly and maintenance of the electronic device.
