Recipe for a New Embedded Component-Connectors: Fabricate rigid or flexible printed circuit boards and chem mill contact sheets. Form and plate the contacts and etch them apart after insertion between pre-drilled printed circuit layers and press.
In summary, here are some of the results:
The technology is particularly appropriate for the low profile requirements of flex circuit connectors, and the implications of the Neoconix technologies are nothing less than a complete shift of today's interconnection paradigm, including a whole new way of making connectors. Embedded connectors will give new freedom to designers to design their connectors integral with systems, wherever they want them. It's a supply chain simplification.
The pair went to Cornell University to join a company called HCD that was working on novel connector and PWB technologies. HCD's CEO, Professor Che-Yu Li, was a renowned interconnect and packaging expert and had previously mentored Dirk for his Ph.D in materials science at Cornell.
Dirk ran sales and marketing while John took charge of engineering and manufacturing for HCD, leading to proprietary design wins and licensing deals with some of the largest semiconductor and electronics manufacturers in the industry.
In early 2003, Dirk and John founded the forerunner of Neoconix, based on an inspiration that merges the worlds of printed circuit fabrication, chemical milling, and connectors.
