20140057731 | Threaded Structures with Solder Control Features - Threaded standoff structures may be provided with features that control the flow of solder. A base structure for a standoff may be formed from a solderphobic material such as brass. A through hole may be formed in the base structure. The base structure may be coated with a solderphilic material such as an inner layer of nickel and an outer layer of tin. A tapping tool may be used to remove the solderphilic material from the opening by tapping threads into the opening, thereby exposing the underlying base metal of the standoff in the opening. During attachment to a substrate such as a printed circuit board, the standoff may be exposed to molten solder. The solderphilic coating on the outer surface of the standoff may attract the molten solder, whereas the solderphobic base metal in the threaded opening may help prevent solder from contaminating the threads in the opening. | 02-27-2014 |

The light sensor or the support structure may include extended portions that are transparent to ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light may be transmitted through the extended portions to cure adhesive that attaches the light sensor or the support structure to the opaque structure. The light sensor may be optically aligned with the aperture by viewing the aperture through an opening in the support structure, by viewing the alignment features on the light sensor through the aperture or by gathering alignment data using the light sensor during alignment operations. | 03-13-2014 |

In some embodiments, the light block can include multiple layers having various reflective and absorptive characteristics. | 03-12-2015 |
20150158245 | ULTRASONIC BONDING OF A COVER GLASS SUB-ASSEMBLY - A method of using ultrasonic energy to secure a first and a second component is described, and an apparatus formed therefrom. A first layer is bonded to a second layer by converting ultrasonic energy into thermal energy. The energy conversions means is an energy director. A thermally sensitive layer receives the thermal energy and at least a portion of the thermally sensitive layer melts. The resultant melting bonds the first layer with the second layer. A different energy director may also be included and used to convert thermal energy in order to de-bond the first layer from the second layer in order to perform, for example, a rework. | 06-11-2015 |
