Embodiment Construction

[0051] In one embodiment, the specification discloses a circuit board design for an endoscopic system tip. The circuit board design not only more efficiently utilizes the space within the component-filled distal tip, but also reduces the cost of the components and makes the design more scalable than existing circuit board designs for multi-viewing element endoscopes. In one embodiment, leaf connectors are used to connect sets of illuminators associated with various optical assemblies. In one embodiment, the groups of luminaires are placed on separate luminaire circuit boards connected to a common substrate such that they can draw power from the main power supply through leaf connectors. This allows the light circuit to draw power without using any wires.

[0052] This description is directed to multiple embodiments. The following disclosure is provided to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to practice the invention. Language used in this specification should not be c...

Abstract

The present specification describes a circuit board design that uses circuit boards for illuminator sets associated with the various optical assemblies. In one configuration, front and side illuminators are assembled on front and side illuminator circuit boards. Leaf connectors associated with each illuminator are provided to interface with a common base board.
