Title: The Innovative Contributions of Stephanie Moran
Introduction
Stephanie Moran is a prominent inventor based in San Francisco, CA. She has made significant contributions to the field of printed circuit boards (PCBs) through her innovative patents. With a total of 2 patents, her work showcases her expertise and dedication to advancing technology.
Latest Patents
Moran's latest patents include a "Layer-layer registration coupon for printed circuit boards." This invention discloses a method and apparatus for determining misregistration of internal layers of a PCB using resistance measurements. In one embodiment, the method involves measuring a first resistance between a first center terminal and a first peripheral terminal of a registration coupon on a PCB panel. Additionally, it includes measuring a second resistance between the first center terminal and a second peripheral terminal, which is associated with a first internal layer of the PCB. The difference between these resistances is calculated to determine any misregistration along a first axis.
Another notable patent is the "Step drill test structure of layer depth sensing on printed circuit board." This invention presents a test structure that includes a drill path and a connection via. The drill path may feature sensing pads on selected layers of the PCB, with the sensing pads being electrically conductive. The depth of a given layer can be determined by drilling into the drill path and establishing an electrical connection between the drill bit and the connection via.
