In this paper a novel design is proposed to improve the load capacity of fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) for miniature spindle motors and small-form-factor data storage applications. In contrast to conventional miniature FDB with two sets of herringbone grooves on its inner surface, the proposed miniature FDB comprises another one set of herringbone grooves on its outer surface. The proposed miniature FDB is verified numerically utilizing commercial software Advanced Rotating Machinery Dynamics (ARMD). The simulation results show that compared to the conventional miniature FDB, the proposed miniature FDB can obviously improve the load capacity of the bearing system. Overall, the results presented in this study show that the proposed miniature FDB provides another solution for miniature spindle motor applications.

A quad, small form-factor pluggable 28 Gbps optical transceiver design scheme is proposed. It is capable of transmitting 50 Gbps of data up to a distance of 40 km using modulation signals with a level-four pulse-amplitude. The proposed scheme is designed using a combination of electro-absorption-modulated lasers, transmitter optical sub-assembly, low-cost positive-intrinsic-native photodiodes, and receiver optical sub-assembly to achieve standard performance and low cost. Moreover, the hardware and firmware design schemes to implement the optical transceiver are presented. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme and the performance of the manufactured optical transceiver, thereby confirming its applicability to real industrial sites.
