SOCKET - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17814705 titled 'SOCKET
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a socket design that includes a housing and multiple contacts. The housing is box-shaped with an opening and has a matrix of through holes at the bottom. The contacts consist of ground contacts and signal contacts, which are arranged in an alternating pattern and pass through the through holes. The ground contacts that are adjacent to each other in the array direction are short-circuited.
- The socket housing is box-shaped with an opening and has a matrix of through holes at the bottom.
- The contacts in the socket include ground contacts and signal contacts.
- The ground contacts and signal contacts are arranged in an alternating pattern.
- The contacts pass through the through holes in the housing.
- The ground contacts that are adjacent to each other in the array direction are short-circuited.
Potential Applications
- This socket design can be used in electronic devices that require a secure and reliable connection between a chip and a circuit board.
- It can be utilized in various industries such as telecommunications, consumer electronics, automotive, and aerospace.
Problems Solved
- The socket design ensures a secure and stable connection between the contacts and the circuit board.
- The short-circuiting of adjacent ground contacts helps in reducing electromagnetic interference and improving signal integrity.
Benefits
- The box-shaped housing provides a sturdy and protective structure for the contacts.
- The alternating arrangement of ground and signal contacts allows for efficient signal transmission and reduces the risk of cross-talk.
- The short-circuiting of adjacent ground contacts helps in minimizing electromagnetic interference, leading to improved overall performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
A socket includes a housing and a plurality of contacts. The housing is formed in a box-shape with an opening and is provided with a matrix of through holes at a bottom portion. The plurality of contacts includes ground contacts and signal contacts which are arranged so as to be aligned alternately in a predetermined array direction by one or a plurality of them and are passed through the through holes. The ground contacts adjacent to each other in the array direction are short-circuited.
