Definitions

  • a connector structure and a novel arrangement of a multiplicity of said connector structures, for shortening the physical and electri ⁇ cal distances between adjacent printed circuit (hereinafter "PC") boards mounting integrated circuit (hereinafter “IC”) chips. Further, it includes a connector for connecting flex ⁇ ible ribbon connector cables between such boards, and for a novel arrangement of a multiplicity of connectors to increase processing rates for said sub-nanosecond electrical signals.
  • PC printed circuit
  • IC integrated circuit
  • Heuer 2,971,179 discloses a female connector for re ⁇ ceiving PC boards or flexible flat cables. The structure of the present invention is distinguishable.
  • Roberts et al 4,740,867 discloses a female connector for connecting a flexible flat ribbon cable to a PC board.
  • the present invention is distinguishable.
  • Takashima 5,301,089 discloses an arrangement of PC boards around a radial bus assembly which contains a cross-bar switch distributing signals to the various PC boards.
  • a cross ⁇ bar switch is not an equivalent of the structure of the pre ⁇ sent invention.
  • the female connector for receiving a thin flat connector such as the edge of a PC board or the end of a flat flexible ribbon cable.
  • the female connector is comprised of two halves which are mirror images of each other. Each half includes a body of two parallel longitudinal members each having a foot end and a head end. Each foot end has a toe portion which extends out ⁇ wardly from the longitudinal body, and the toe portions of the two halves are abutted to one another to form the connector.
  • FIG. 2A discloses a 'star' or 'asterisk' structure, the primary structure of the present invention.
  • the structure can be obtained by any of several fab ⁇ rication techniques. These can range from a simple soldered or welded connection of a multiplicity N of central coaxial con ⁇ ductors 20A . . . 2ON arranged symmetrically about common point 12, to a machined fixture with coaxial connectors incor ⁇ porating the basic structure therein, and even including a star or asterisk structure fabricated by integrated circuit technology on an IC microchip. Upon reflection, it will be realized by those skilled in the art that signal lead-lengths can be obtained which are extremely short, and that process ⁇ ing rates can be achieved that are as great as twenty times those presently available.
