Abstract:
A method for forming a frame attachment interconnect between a substrate and a frame is disclosed. The method can include applying a composite material (e.g., epoxy-glass prepreg) to a surface of a substrate. The composite material can have one or more holes disposed to substantially align with a corresponding pad on the surface of the substrate. A metal disc is placed in each hole of the composite material on top of the corresponding pad. A frame member can be placed on top of the composite material and the metal discs. The frame member can have one or more pads disposed to substantially align with the metal discs. The substrate, composite material, metal discs and frame combination can be cured in a controlled atmosphere that can include a vacuum and a predetermined temperature to create discrete electrical connections between adjacent pads but with each encapsulated and electrically isolated.
