A single-layer redistribution plate functioning as a space translator between a device under testing ('DUT') and a testing PCB may comprise a hard ceramic plate. A DUT side of the plate may have pads configured to interface with a device under testing. Both sides of the plate may comprise traces, vias, and pads to fan out the DUT pad pattern so that the plate side opposite the DUT side has spatially translated pads configured to interface with the pads on a testing PCB. Fabricating a redistribution plate may comprise calibrating and aligning, laser milling vias, laser milling trenches and pads, copper plating, grinding and polishing, removing residual copper, and coating the copper surfaces.

An improved method of measuring the three-dimensional surface roughness of a structure. A focused ion beam is used to mill a succession of cross-sections or 'slices' of the feature of interest at pre-selected intervals over a pre-selected measurement distance. As each cross-section is exposed, a scanning electron microscope is used to measure the relevant dimensions of the feature. Data from these successive 'slices' is then used to determine the three-dimensional surface roughness for the feature.

A display device having an integral docking station to facilitate the display device to be used in conjunction with a palm sized computing device for applications executing on the palm sized computing device is disclosed. The display device includes a flat panel display, a display controller, a microcontroller, a docking station including a communication interface, and a chassis integrally housing the earlier enumerated elements. Together, the enumerated elements facilitate removable coupling of the palm sized computing device to the display device to allow the flat panel display to be used in conjunction with said palm sized computing device under the control of said microcontroller for applications executing on said palm sized computing device. In various embodiments, the display device additionally includes at least a selected one of a number of other I/O peripherals. In other embodiments, other extended I/O capabilities, such as storage media, keyboard and cursor control are also provided. In yet other embodiments, the I/O extending apparatus is included as an integral feature of an article of manufacture, such as a furnishing item.

A linear time display including a first and a second time clock for a first and a second locale of a first and a second time zone is disclosed. In one embodiment, each linear time clock includes a plurality of time unit representations. A first visual indicator is displayed to correlate a first time unit representation in the first linear clock to a corresponding time unit representation in the second linear clock, and a second visual indicator is displayed to correlate a second time unit representation in the second linear clock to a corresponding time unit representation in the first linear clock. A time difference represented by the spatial difference between the first and second visual indicators is also displayed.
