A palm pad system including an electronic notepad coupled to a conventional personal digital device (&ldquo;PDD&rdquo;) via a data bus is set forth that enables a user to transpose handwritten data into electronic files or pages. The notepad and PDD are mounted onto a common base. The base includes a retaining structure for retaining the notepad on the base and another retaining structure for retaining the PDD on the base. The base further includes a flexible portion that permits the base to be folded into a compact form for protecting the notepad and PDD during transport. A pen containing a transmitter is employed by the palm pad system to transmit a signal to receptive electronics while a user writes data on the notepad with a writing tip contained in the pen. The signal received by the electronics is processed to generate an electronic file representative of the user's handwritten data. The electronic file can be electronically stored and retrieved. The electronic file can also be displayed on a touch sensitive display, which is associated with the PDD, immediately after composition by the user.

Palm pad system

An apparatus for placing spheres at predetermined positions on a substrate. The apparatus includes a platform to support the substrate at a first sphere placement position in the apparatus, and a placement station disposed above the platform that places spheres at locations on the substrate. The placement station includes a first container having a chamber to contain spheres, and a first carrier tray having a substantially horizontal upper surface that forms a lower surface of the chamber. The upper surface has a first section and a second section, the second section having a plurality of holes formed therein to receive spheres. The first carrier tray is movable to position the second section between a fill position beneath the first container and a place position disposed over the first sphere placement position. The placement station is constructed and arranged to fill the plurality of holes with spheres when the second section is in the fill position, and place the spheres at the predetermined positions on the substrate when the second section is in the place position.

A stencil and stencil identification system in which the stencil carries a tagging device capable of storing data corresponding to characteristics of the stencil and the pattern of apertures formed in the stencil. The stencil with tagging device may be utilized in combination with a stencil printing device having a tag reader which reads information data stored within the tagging device and/or writes information into the tagging device relating to characteristics of the stencil or other criteria.
