Embodiment Construction

[0018] Referring now to the exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings, specific language will be used herein to describe the same. It should however be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is thereby intended. Alterations and further improvements of the inventive features described herein, as well as additional applications of the inventive principles described herein, occur to those skilled in the art and possess the present disclosure are considered to be within the scope of the present invention.

[0019] figure 1 -3 illustrates various front, rear and bottom perspective views of the interface connector 110. The interface connector 110 is configured to be disposed proximate to an inner peripheral portion of a portable electronic device (not shown), such as a personal digital assistant ("PDA") and / or a cellular phone. The interface connector 110 is configured to connect with a power cable and / or a data cable to provide power and transfer data...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for improving the co-planarity between conductive structures exposed in an interface connector for a portable electronic device. The interface connector includes an elongate housing having a front surface and a bottom surface. The front surface is configured to be at least partially exposed at a peripheral portion of the portable electronic device. The front surface defines port openings in the elongate housing and the bottom surface defines plate openings therein. The plate openings are configured to receive and retain conductive structures and are configured to be at least partially exposed at the bottom surface of the elongate housing and at least partially exposed at the port openings to provide electrical interconnection to the portable electronic device. With this arrangement, the conductive structures in the interface connector are substantially co-planar with each other to provide improved and more reliable electrical interconnection with the portable electronic device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to interconnections for personal digital assistants and / or cellular phones. More particularly, the present invention relates to the structure of an interface connector for a personal digital assistant and / or a cellular phone and a method of manufacturing the same. technical background [0002] Portable telephone systems and personal digital assistants ("PDAs") have gained wide acceptance as efficient devices for voice and data communications. While early mobile units were large and complex, miniaturization enabled hand-held units with full-featured telephone capabilities to allow users the freedom to use the telephone in mobile environments or at locations away from hard-wired connections to existing telephone systems. In addition, the cost of purchasing and using cellular phones has dropped significantly, and the communication quality and clarity of cellular phones have increased, leading to increased and wides...
