A "personal, portable information manipulator" was imagined by Alan Kay at Xerox PARC in 1968, [7] and described in his 1972 paper as the "Dynabook". [8]
Energizer batteries in twin cell holder with battery hold down strap. Design of the battery holder requires knowledge of how and where the larger product will be used. Human factors to be considered include ease of battery exchange, age range and physical condition of the intended user.
A semiconductor package is a metal, plastic, glass, or ceramic casing containing one or more discrete semiconductor devices or integrated circuits.Individual components are fabricated on semiconductor wafers (commonly silicon) before being diced into die, tested, and packaged.
In oil drilling and borehole mining, a casing shoe or guide shoe is a bull-nose shaped device which is attached to the bottom of the casing string. A casing hanger , which allows the casing to be suspended from the wellhead, is attached to the top of the casing.
The integrated circuit package must resist physical breakage, keep out moisture, and also provide effective heat dissipation from the chip. Moreover, for RF applications, the package is commonly required to shield electromagnetic interference, that may either degrade the circuit performance or adversely affect neighboring circuits.
