To improve electronic part packaging efficiency without sacrificing the transmission distance of a radio IC tag, a recess is formed in the front side surface of a printed wiring board. An IC chip is placed in the recess so that the IC chip does not protrude from the front side surface, a first major surface 1a and a second major surface of the printed wiring board. Antenna elements of an antenna are formed on the front side surface on the opposite sides, respectively, of the IC chip, and the antenna is connected to the IC chip. The antenna is a dipole antenna of a length equal to half the wavelength of radio waves to be radiated by the antenna.

A transparent conductor including a conductive layer coated on a substrate is described. More specifically, the conductive layer comprises a network of nanowires which may be embedded in a matrix. The conductive layer is optically transparent and flexible. It can be coated or laminated onto a variety of substrates, including flexible and rigid substrates.

Integrated circuits utilizing standard commercial packaging are arranged on a printed circuit board to allow the production of 1-Gigabyte and 2-Gigabyte capacity memory modules. A first row of integrated circuits is oriented in an opposite orientation to a second row of integrated circuits. The integrated circuits in a first half of the first row and in the corresponding half of the second row are connected via a signal trace to a first register. The integrated circuits in a second half of the first row and in the corresponding half of the second row are connected to a second register. Each register processes a non-contiguous subset of the bits in each data word.

A laser-based method and system for processing targeted surface material and article produced thereby are provided. The system processes the targeted surface material within a region of a workpiece while avoiding undesirable changes to adjacent non-targeted material. The system includes a primary laser subsystem including a primary laser source for generating a pulsed laser output including at least one pulse having a wavelength and a pulse width less than 1 ns. A delivery subsystem irradiates the targeted surface material of the workpiece with the pulsed laser output including the at least one pulse to texture the targeted surface material. The pulsed laser output has sufficient total fluence to initiate ablation within at least a portion of the targeted surface material and the pulse width is short enough such that the region and the non-targeted material surrounding the material are substantially free of slag.

The cost and complexity of an electronic pressure sensitive transducer are decreased by constructing such a transducer directly on a printed circuit board containing support electronics. Conductive traces are formed on the printed circuit board to define a contact area. A flexible substrate having an inner surface is positioned over the contact area. An adhesive spacer, substantially surrounding the contact area, attaches the flexible substrate to the printed circuit board. At least one resistive layer is deposited on the flexible substrate inner surface. In use, the resistive layer contacts at least two conductive traces in response to pressure applied to the flexible substrate to produce an electrical signal indicative of applied pressure.

A printed wiring board is manufactured by a method in which an alignment mark is formed in a metal foil, a bump is formed on the metal foil at a position determined based on the alignment mark, an electronic component is aligned with the bump based on the alignment mark, the electronic component is connected with the bump, and an insulation layer is formed over the electronic component.

A method for manufacturing a multilayer printed wiring board having an electronic component housed therein includes forming a first conductor circuit on a first surface of a substrate. A first alignment mark is formed on the first surface of the substrate separate from the conductor circuit and forming a through bore in the substrate, the through bore extending from the first surface of the substrate to a second surface of the substrate. A seal member is disposed on the second surface of the substrate, the seal member sealing an opening on the second surface of the through bore to provide a sealed through bore. An electronic component is inserted in the sealed through bore using the first alignment mark on the first surface of the substrate.
