Assignee:

Motorola, Inc. - Schaumburg IL

International Classification:

H01Q 150

US Classification:

343906, 455 903

Abstract:

A mobile communication device has a radio contact ( ) that has a moveable portion ( ) that is located in correspondence with a contact pad ( ) of a circuit board of the ( ) of the mobile communication device. The moveable portion is biased away form the contact pad. The radio contact is held in place by a boot ( ) that is attached to the housing of the mobile communication device. An external connector has a connector contact ( ) that has a moveable portion ( ) for mating with the moveable portion of the radio contact. As the external connector is attached to the mobile communication device, the connector contact pushes the radio contact until it touches the contact pad, and then the moveable portion of the connector contact move to absorb any further travel of the external connector.

Richard D. Alvarez - Boca Raton FL

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corp. - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F 1300

US Classification:

395800

Abstract:

This invention relates to a personal computer having facility for ready variation in the amount of memory capability available on the microprocessor local bus. The personal computer has a microprocessor, a high speed local bus coupled to said microprocessor, a system bus, a bus controller coupled to and providing communication between the local bus and system bus, and a local bus memory facility coupled to and physically separable from the local bus. The local bus memory facility is provided by a substrate, preferably a printed circuit card, for mounting and providing coupling connections among components mounted thereon, at least one volatile memory component mounted on the card, and a memory controller mounted on the card and coupled to the volatile memory component, local bus and bus controller, with the memory controller regulating communications between the volatile memory component and microprocessor.
