Definitions
- This disclosure generally relates to electronic devices, and more particularly to improved use, assembly, construction, and reliability of such electronic devices.
- HVAC Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning
- This disclosure relates to electronic devices such as HVAC controller devices, and more particularly, to improved use, assembly, construction, and reliability of such electronic devices.
- the disclosure also relates to assemblies for protecting electrical components.
- an electronic assembly may include a display, a display holder (e.g., a front cover or a feature of a front cover), and a printed circuit board (PCB).
- the display may have a front side for viewing the display, a back side, and side walls extending between the front side and the back side.
- the display holder may have a recess for receiving at least part of the display, where the display holder may extend adjacent part of the front side of the received display and adjacent at least part of the side walls of the display.
- the PCB may be secured relative to the display holder and adjacent the back side of the display. In some cases, the PCB may be in operative communication with the display.
- An illustrative method of assembling an electronic assembly may include inserting a front side of a display into a recess of a display holder, aligning one or more alignment feature of a spacer with one or more corresponding alignment features of the display holder, and placing the spacer adjacent a back side of the display.
- One or more alignment features of a PCB may be aligned with one or more corresponding alignment features of the display holder and/or spacer, and the PCB may be placed adjacent the spacer.
- a latch of the display holder may engage with the PCB to secure the PCB relative to the display holder with the display and the spacer secured therebetween.

- Figure 23 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an illustrative PWA and a back cover of an illustrative electronic assembly.
- an electronic device or assembly 10 is shown in Figures 1 and 2. It is contemplated that the electronic device or assembly 10 may be, for example, a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) control panel, security system control panel, lighting control panel, irrigation control panel, or any other suitable device. In one example, the electronic device 10 may be a thermostat, but his is not required.
- HVAC Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning
- the illustrative electronic assembly 10 may include a housing 12, a PWA 14, an electronic component 16, and an electrically conductive extender or connector 18, where the PWA 14 and the electronic component 16 may be positioned at least partially within the housing 12.
- a conductive shield may be provided adjacent the PWA 14, such as between the PWA 14 and the electronic component 16.
- the electronic component 16 may be a touch screen display that itself includes a conductive metal backing which can function as a conductive shield.
- the conductive shield may be electrically coupled to the ground feature of the PWA 14 via the connector 18, as further described below.
- the PWA 14 may include a grounding feature, such as a ground plane or other grounding feature (e.g., a grounding point, grounding terminal, ground pad, etc.).
- the grounding feature or grounding plane may be an area of copper foil or other conductive material connected to a grounding point of the PWA 14.
- the grounding feature or grounding plane may serve as a return path for current from electronic components of the electronic assembly 10.
- the grounding feature or grounding plane is not specifically identified in the Figures, but may take the form of a conductive layer of the PWA 14, a terminal or pad on the PWA 14, or any other form as desired.
- Electronic devices and their electronic assemblies 10 may be susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD) events.
- ESD events may occur when, for example, the electronic assemblies 10 are contacted by users and static electricity is discharged from the user to the electronic assembly 10.
- ESD events may be harmful to the electronic assemblies 10, as the electronic components of the electronic assemblies 10 may be short circuited or otherwise damaged by the ESD events. Providing some level of ESD protection in configuring an electronic assembly 10 is thus desirable in many situations.
- electronic devices and their electronic assemblies 10 may be at least partially protected from ESD events by, for example, including a conductive path for passing the electrostatic discharge safely to ground, and bypassing sensitive electronic components of the electronic assemblies 10.
- the electronic assembly 10 may include a printed wiring assembly (PWA) 14 that includes a ground feature, such as a ground plane. When provided, the ground plane may itself help shield sensitive electronic components from an outside ESD event.
- PWA printed wiring assembly
- the electronic component 16 may have a metal backing 22 (e.g., a zinc plating, sheet metal, and/or other metal or conductive material), a portion of a backing that is metal, or a metal feature extending adjacent the back of the electronic component 16. While a metal backing is used in this example, it is contemplated that any suitable conductive layer or shield may be used, if present.
- a metal backing e.g., a zinc plating, sheet metal, and/or other metal or conductive material
- the electronic component 16 may be a display 32 (e.g., a liquid crystal display (LCD) or other display) that is at least partially enclosed by a metal box structure, where at least a back side of the display 32 (e.g., a side opposite a front side for viewing the display 32, where side walls may extending between the front side and the back side) includes a metal backing 22 (see Figure 4 showing subassembly 19 including the electronic component 16, the spacer 24, and the PWA 14).
- the perimeter sides (e.g., side walls) of the display 32, and even a border around the front side of the display 32 may be covered by the metal box structure.
- an electrically conductive extender or connector 18 may provide an electrical connection between the metal backing 22 or the other conductive feature and the ground feature of the PWA 14.
- Such an electrical connection 18 between the PWA 14 and the electronic component 16 may, for example, help ground the metal backing 22 of the electronic component 16 and reduce the chances that an ESD event will cause damage to electronic components mounted on or near the PWA 14.
- the electronic component 16 and the PWA 14 may be spaced apart from each other when mounted in the housing 12.
- the metal backing 22 may be spaced from the PWA 14 and/or from components on the PWA 14 by a distance greater than about two (2) millimeters, greater than about three (3) millimeters, greater than about five (5) millimeters, greater than about ten (10) millimeters, or any other distance as desired.
- Such a space may provide sufficient space to accommodate one or more electrical components that may be mounted to the side of the PWA facing a spacer 24 and/or electronic component 16, and in some cases, may help dissipate or distribute heat generated by the PWA 14 and/or electronic component 16 within the housing.
- the spacer 24 may be provided, as shown in for example Figures 2-7.
- the spacer 24 may be made from any suitable material(s).
- the spacer 24 may be made from one or more polymers or other materials having desirable material properties.
- the spacer 24 may be made from an electrically insulating material, such that the spacer 24 does not create a short circuit between any conductive traces or other components on the PWA 14 and the electronic component 16.
- the spacer 24 may be configured to help support the electronic component 16 both when users are interacting with the electronic component 16 and when the electronic component 16 may be operating on its own.
- the spacer 24 may take on a web-like form, such as shown best in perhaps Figures 2, 5, 12, 14, and 16, and may have openings 25 (e.g., one or more openings 25, two or more openings 25, etc.) between structural portions 48.
- the openings 25 of the spacer 24 may allow for air gaps between the back side of the display 32 and the PCB 34 of the PWA 14, when the spacer is positioned therebetween (see, discussion of the positioning of the spacer 24 below).
- the spacer 24 may have spacer side walls 42 extending from and/or forming one or more edges of the spacer 24, as best seen in perhaps Figures 5-7.
- the spacer side walls 42 may extend in the direction of the PWA 14 and/or may extend along an entire edge of the spacer 24 or may extend a partial distance along an edge of the spacer 24, as seen in Figures 5 and 7.
- the spacer side walls 42 of the spacer 24 may be formed to mate with the housing 12 (e.g., walls 56 of the front cover 38, the back cover 36, or other feature of the housing 12), which may help provide an ESD path 44 that travels around the ends of the spacer side walls 42, as best shown in perhaps Figures 6 and 1 IB. Because the length of the ESD path 44 is increased by the spacer side walls 42, the PWA 14 may be better protected from an ESD event originating from outside of the housing 12.
- the web-like configuration of the spacer 24 may allow for a double sided PWA 14 component placement, whereas a spacer 24 without openings 25 may not permit component placement on the side of the PWA 14 adjacent the electronic component 16.
- the openings 25 in the spacer 24 may allow components to be mounted on both sides of the PCB 34 without interfering with the electronic component 16 (e.g., display 32) of the electronic assembly 10, by providing space for the components on the side of the PCB 34 facing the component 16.
- the display 32 or other electronic component 16 may be an unintended heat generator, which may heat and/or influence thermistors located at the PWA 14, if such thermistors are present.
- the spacer 24 may be configured to provide an air gap between the display 32 and the PWA 14 due to its, optional, web-like configuration. The web-like configuration may limit the heat transfer to the PWA 14 from the display 32, while maintaining an overall thin profile of the electronic assembly 10. Further, to prevent direct heat transfer to the thermistors (if present) on the PWA 14 through the material of the spacer 24, the material of the spacer 24 may be cut away in, around and/or over any such thermistors.
- the housing 12 may have a front cover 38.
- the front cover 38 may generally be a frame for receiving an electronic component (e.g., a touch screen component or other component or device) and may have an opening 52 extending therethrough, as best shown in Figures 8-10, 12, and 16.
- the front cover 38 may include one or more front cover walls 56 sometimes extending from a bezel 41 (e.g., a thin bezel or other bezel), where the front cover walls 56 may be configured to mate with surfaces of a back cover 36 of the housing 12 and/or the spacer 24, as shown in for example Figures 11A and 1 IB. Similar to the spacer walls 42, the front cover walls 56 may help define an ESD path 44 for the ESD events, as seen in Figure 10, which may enter the housing 12 through a gap in the housing 12 at a parting line 40 or at any other location.
- a parting line between portions of the housing of an electronic device may be a suitable inlet through which ESD may travel to the inside of the electronic device.
- a parting line 40 may be formed, as best shown in Figures 11A and 1 IB, and it has been found that ESDs may travel to the inside of the electronic assembly 10 through this parting line 40.
- ESDs may carry voltage of up to about 15 kilovolts (kV) or more (although, voltage of an ESD may vary greatly), which is a relatively high voltage.
- kV kilovolts
- the electric breakdown strength of dry air in substantially ideal conditions is approximate 3kV/millimeter (mm). This means that in ideal conditions, a gap having a distance greater than 5 mm is needed to prevent a discharge directly from an electronic component 16 to the PWA 14.
- the ESD may not dissipate as expected due to materials (e.g., mating walls, dirt, humidity) or other factors slowing the dissipation of the ESD and thus, the ESD may travel farther than it is expected to travel in ideal conditions.
- the parting line 40 which may provide an avenue through which ESDs make their path to an interior of the of the electronic assembly 10 to the closest electrically sensitive area, may be extended a distance by the placement of the mating walls of the electronic assembly (e.g., the front cover 38, the back cover 36, and the spacer walls 42 of spacer 24).
- the spacer 24 may be positioned within the housing 12, such that the spacer 24 contacts the front cover 38 and the back cover 36. Such positioning of the mating surfaces may extend the distance the ESD must travel to contact an electrically sensitive area within the housing 12 to a distance equal to a length of protective walls 56 of the front cover 38 starting at a gap at an outer surface of the housing 12 between the front cover 38 and the back cover 36 plus a length of the spacer walls 42.
- the extended distance the ESD may have to travel to an electrically sensitive area may be set at least 5 mm, at least 8 mm, at least 10 mm, or other distances of travel greater than 10 mm.
- the spacer 24 may be situated between the electronic component 16 and the PWA 14, and in some cases, may engage both the facing surfaces of the electronic component 16 and the PWA 14.
- a component on the PWA 14 may extend through an opening 25 in the spacer 24.
- the electrically conductive extender or connector 18 extending from the PWA 14 may extend through an opening 25 in the spacer 24, see Figures 2 and 4.
- the electrically conductive extender or connector 18 may extend from the PWA 14, through an opening 25 in the spacer 24, and may mechanically engage and electrically connect to the metal backing 22 of the electronic component 16.
- the front cover walls 56 of the front cover 38 may be configured to engage and/or align other features of the electronic assembly 10.
- wall extensions 58 may extend from the front cover walls 56 or other portions of the front cover 38 and interact with the PWA 14 or other feature to align the PWA 14 within housing 12, and in some cases, to at least partially secure the PWA 14 within the front cover 38.

- the PCB 34 of the PWA 14 may be slightly taller than three inches. This extra length of the PCB 34 may accommodate an antenna (e.g., a Wifi antenna or other antenna) that would otherwise be shielded or blocked by metal backing 22 of the electronic component 16 (e.g. display 32).
- the base size of the PCB 34 may be approximately 4 inches wide and 3.35 inches tall, and all of the electronics may be consolidated and/or packaged close together to fit within this footprint. Additionally, or alternatively, the electronics may be packaged along with the display 32, which may allow the device to have a thin profile.
- the opening 52 of the front cover 38 may be sized to allow a user to view and/or interact with the display 32 or other electronic component 16, while protecting the electronic component 16.
- the opening 52 in the front cover 38 may be sized to allow free access to a touch pad of the electronic component 16, sized to cover the visual area viewing angles, sized to protect the PWA against contamination, sized to prevent the cover from interacting with an active touch pad area of the electronic component 16, and and/or sized for any other purpose.
- the front cover 38 may be configured to accept the electronic component in the X and Y directions, as shown in Figures 16-18, in a tight to loose fit.
- the fit may be tight to prevent the electronic component 16 from rattling while a user interacts with the electronic assembly 10.
- Such a tight fit in the Z direction may be facilitated by using the gasket 106, which may compress to fill any extra space resulting from manufacturing tolerances of the front cover wall 56 and the front cover 38.
- the front cover 38 may have a bezel formed at least partially from the base 39 that wraps around the product and which may allow a user to contact the electronic assembly 10 without interacting with the electronic component 16 (e.g., the display 32). Further, the front cover 38 may be a front window assembly (FWA) front cover 100 of the housing 12, as best shown in Figure 12.
