Mech Pregnancy and Protoform Development of Gestating Sparklings

Here is what I have compiled on Cybertronian "reproduction" from More Than Meets the Eye, specifically the Holiday Special and Volume 5:

Holiday Special:

So this would be the protoform development for a forged sparkling and it lends support to that, if Cybertronians gave birth to their own Sparklings, then they would likely be an egg-like form (yes, I know it's not actually a sparkling, but can we all agree that Swerve is strangely well-informed on protoform development for forged Cybertronians?)

So what would slide out from the gestation tank has no discernable features yet and still needs hours if not days before the protoform resembles an adult Cybertronian, but I still don't have an answer for the size of this thing - at what point does it reach its full size? Cybertronians before the war went to academies, so what point does the protoform receive an education instead of having relevant information jammed into its brain module right before deployment like a MTO cold construct?

(More under cut)

But, let's be honest, I am going out of order here. Let's go to Volume 5 where we encounter a hot spot of re-ignited sparks on the moon:

So this is being constructed cold.

And this is forged - as well as the official story for how cold constructed bots were made, which apparently differs from the truth. Here is the truth for how cold constructed sparks were actually formed:

So all cold constructs were made from the matrix - but what if they did come from igniting healthy sparks to make new ones?

What if you used the energy of two sparks to create an entirely new one and that sparkling attached itself to a parent spark for some time before it dropped to a gestation tank (this is common in fanfiction and I love it so much, it makes the most sense)? As these two orbs of immense power and life resonate with one another, creating waves of energy that can be interpreted as pleasurable for the interfacing bots, excess energy could gather itself into a separate orb that borrows the life code from both parents, becomes randomized, and this creates a new life code for a separate entity. It stays in the spark chamber for a period of time - I don't know, decoding or storing energy or something, I am very bad with electronics - before dropping down to an artificial gestation tank.

And this is where the valve/plug comes into play if you so desire because now we have the issue of, where is the spark going to go? It needs a protoform. It needs the materials to make a protoform. It also needs liquids.

Cybertronians seem to live off energon and anything you can make from energon, but there have been references and images in the comics of Cybertronians have oil as a waste product, so they need a separate compartment for oil away from their energon tank and they also are said to have (in fanfiction, at least): oral solvents, lubricant, transfluid, optic fluid, etc... All those will require their own compartments and they will all have either been diluted from the energon or will have an origin in a separate liquid that isn't mentioned. Let's keep in mind that they will also need some sort of oil for their hinges and their nanites for upkeep.

So I believe these gestation tanks are where the Sparklings develop their egg-like protoform with all these liquids that they themselves can't make yet, and I think they get what they need from nanite colonies as there is no umbilical cord (not unless you want the bots to have belly buttons). I like to think of them as nannyites - nanites that, once a protoform hits the gestation tank, have latent codes that becomes active and now have protoform-related tasks versus whatever tasks they did beforehand. The nannyites will likely take these resources from the carrying parent, everything from fluids to energon stores to living metal that the nannyites will adapt or make compatible for the sparkling.

So this carrying parent suddenly has fewer nanites colonies themselves, a thinner layer of living metal, and depleted storages of fluids.

Hear me out, hear me out: Valveplug interfacing helps the carrying parent because transfluid will contain necessary materials for the protoform.

I am going to take it a step further and say that it is that first shot of transfluid into the gestation tank during spark and valveplug interfacing creates input that electronically signals to the receiving parent to gather the excess energy from the spark play via centripetal force like a satellite and that force signals the excess energy to turn on life codes it recycled from both parents and create its own life code. That transfluid inside of the gestation tank also turns on those latent codes for the nannyites to get the compartment prepared. It's that first dose of necessary materials and every dose of transfluid after that is stored in the gestation tank for the protoform.

Which brings me to the idea that I have seen on AO3 where bots go into heat:

What if a mech goes into heat as a way to store transfluid from their partner?

I am largely talking out of my ass here because I don't know anything about how machines work, but I know there are a lot of hormones and signals and work that goes into human pregnancy.

The downside of this is that, if all bots were once forged and now they are, let's say, "birthed", then these constructs would be artificial: the gestation tank and the fertile centripetal force with its satellite sparkling and the interface array with its gestational passage and the nannyites and the transfluid. These would have to be constructed cold and surgically added, and you would have to create codes that turn on these cascading or stacking protocols (I don't know the correct computer term for when one event triggers another event triggers another event and so on) and you would have to manufacture filters and tanks and lines for the creation of gestational lubricant and transfluid.

This is just me rambling because I can't stop thinking about all this, but I am not ready to write a mechpreg story.

Please talk to me about Cybertronian reproduction, I am not normal about this.

What is Automotive PCB?

Automotive circuit boards include central control circuit boards, ignition control circuit boards, power amplifier circuit boards, audio-visual media player boards, etc. according to their function and region. Due to brand manufacturers, electronic buses, etc., many circuit modules and backplanes do not have a unified standard name.

With the increasing demand of consumers for the functionality, safety, comfort, and entertainment of automobiles, especially for autonomous driving, the proportion of hybrid electric vehicles and pure electric vehicles in new energy vehicles has also increased by a considerable amount. The demand for PCB circuit board products for new energy vehicles has also increased.

What Types of PCBs are Found in Automotive Electronics?

Electric vehicles have consistent, essential, and innovative requirements. Today, Tesla is leading the wave of innovation. However, innovations in electric vehicle manufacturing and design require durable, reliable, and rugged PCB applications. Therefore, this is difficult to do without professiopnal automotive PCB manufacturers. High-performance automotive PCB requirements can significantly withstand harsh driving conditions and could be a catalyst for innovation in the growing new energy drive systems.

Electric vehicle PCB demand mainly comes from powertrain-related equipment (vehicles, battery management systems (BMS), voltage conversion systems (DC-DC, inverters, etc.), and other high and low voltage devices). In addition, mmWave radar is an important sensing device for realizing intelligent and autonomous driving and has obvious advantages compared with other sensors.

High power copper plated PCB is one of the most widely good to use PCB applications in emerging industries. Flexible PCBs, HDI PCBs, and LED PCBs are good to use in AC/DC power converters, audio and video, digital displays, braking systems, automatic dimming, electronic mirror controls, automotive lighting, engine timing systems, and remote diagnostic systems.

Common Uses of PCBs in Automobiles

Circuit boards commonly found in automobiles are ones utilized for safety features. These are the boards that also require the utmost in reliability.

In particular, the circuit used for airbag deployment rate / crash sensors are invaluable in dissipating static electricity and triggering the airbag's deployment at the exact moment when it’s needed.

Other critical safety features often requiring high-reliability PCBs include anti-lock brake systems and sensors that would trigger such features.

More vehicle functions powered by boards include power converters, fluid monitors, engine timing, LED lighting, power distribution systems, on-board and remote diagnostics, security systems, and other sensors for non-critical situations (gas, tire pressure, and so on).

Audio/video equipment, touchscreens, and GPS systems are found in most modern automobiles and make use of boards to connect all the electrical components.

Automotive PCB Technologies

Our automotive customers select us for our expertise in advanced technologies. Technologies we have the capability to provide include the list below, as single-sided, double-sided, and multi-layer boards.

Metal Core PCBs

Metal core PCBs are good to use in circuits where a lot of heat appears. Similarly, heat needs to dissipate quickly so as not to damage components. During the operation of the circuit board, heat comes due to some electronic components.

The purpose of metal is to transfer heat from critical circuit board components to less important areas, such as the backing of a metal heat sink or the metal core. Therefore, these PCBs are easy to thermally manage.

Heavy Copper PCBs

When printed circuit boards were first put into practical use, the electrolytic copper foil was almost always good to use as a conductor material. The technique of forming metal by electroplating is electroforming, or electroforming for short.

Since thin copper foil is easy to produce inexpensively by the electroforming process, electrolytic copper foil eventually became the standard conductor material for printed circuit boards. Furthermore, it was good to use in large quantities.

HDI Automotive PCB Manufacturers

HDI PCB technology is also known as 'microvia', and sometimes as 'sequential build-up' or simply 'build-up' technology. We refer to it as HDI, following the approach of the IPC standard that defined it.

It come on on the use of via holes less than 150µm (0.006in) in diameter that can go to adjacent layers of a PCB without having to go through all layers, smaller then are easy to drill mechanically. It is commonly called a "microvia" and can be buried (buried microvia) or sealed (blind microvia).

Microvias come on by laser-drilling and through-plating vias between each pair of adjacent copper layers before they are glued together to make the finished PCB. When the end result is a via hole that only connects between internal copper layers, it is a buried microvia.

Rigid PCBs

FR4 rigid PCBs offer no flexibility and are often used for video screens and rear-view cameras. They are not ideal for high vibration placements or tight form fitting spaces.

Flex PCBs

Because of their flexible & durable nature, these PCBs can be used in automobile corners and bends. They’re made of polyester films, polyimide, or plastic.

Rigid-Flex board

The combination of the rigid board and the flexible board can not only provide the support of the rigid board but also have the bending characteristics of the flexible board. Therefore, it can meet the requirements of three-dimensional assembly.

Flexible-rigid boards are the most complex connecting structures in EA. A simple GZHP has one rigid and one flexible layer. Complex GBPs can have 20 or more connecting sets of oneway and two-way GBPs between rigid external PBs.

The creation of GPP and GZHP is due to the need to miniaturize EA; the disproportion between the volume and mass of ERP (unpackaged and surface-mounted components) placed on rigid PCBs and the volume and mass of rigid PCBs.

Ceramic Substrate Board

Ceramic substrate board is best for manufacturing single- and double-sided printed circuit boards with vias such as aluminum oxide and nitride. Generally, the technology has advantages over traditional thin-film and thick-film technologies for manufacturing ceramic printed circuit boards.

Single and double-sided printed circuit boards made using this technology come by high resolution, high electrical conductivity, solderability, and weldability along the switching tracks.

The manufactured ceramic printed circuit boards can be good to use for the manufacture of hybrid electronic circuits, in the field of the auto industry, optoelectronics, and microwave technology.
