Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 171 words
A filtered dip header assembly comprising: a unitary housing of insulating material having an base, spaced sidewalls and endwalls defining a single elongated cavity therebetween; a plurality of terminal passages in said base in a patterned array; a conductive ground plane positioned in said cavity spaced from said base and having therein a like plurality of apertures, each said aperture being aligned with a respective passage in said base; a cylindrical filter mounted in at least one of said apertures and electrically connected to said ground plane by its outer diameter; a like plurality of terminals each mounted in a respective one of said apertures and said passages, each said terminal having a pin portion extending through said passage and a socket portion opening in said cavity, those terminals passing through a respective cylindrical filter being electrically connected to the inner diameter thereof; at least one of said terminals being directly electrically connected to said ground plane; and insulation material substantially filling said cavity around the socket portions of said terminals.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 171 words
A filtered dip header assembly comprising: a unitary housing of insulating material having an base, spaced sidewalls and endwalls defining a single elongated cavity therebetween; a plurality of terminal passages in said base in a patterned array; a conductive ground plane positioned in said cavity spaced from said base and having therein a like plurality of apertures, each said aperture being aligned with a respective passage in said base; a cylindrical filter mounted in at least one of said apertures and electrically connected to said ground plane by its outer diameter; a like plurality of terminals each mounted in a respective one of said apertures and said passages, each said terminal having a pin portion extending through said passage and a socket portion opening in said cavity, those terminals passing through a respective cylindrical filter being electrically connected to the inner diameter thereof; at least one of said terminals being directly electrically connected to said ground plane; and insulation material substantially filling said cavity around the socket portions of said terminals.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
A filtered dip header assembly according to claim 1 wherein: said insulation material is potting material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A filtered dip header assembly according to claim 1 wherein: said insulation material is a performed member inserted into said cavity.
