Abstract:
A method for producing an assembly of electronic components and assemblies in accord with this, wherein the electronic components have component terminals. A conductive firmament having a first side and a second side is provided. Then the component terminals are connected to the first side of the firmament with an anisotropic conductor. A pattern is applied to the second side of said firmament. And portions of the firmament are removed based on the pattern, such that remaining portions of said firmament form the electrical circuit interconnecting the component terminals.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an electronic assembly 400 and a method for its manufacture 800, 900, 1000 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700. The assembly 400 uses no solder. Components 406, or component packages 402, 802, 804, 806 with I/O leads 412 are placed 800 onto a planar substrate 808. The assembly is encapsulated 900 with electrically insulating material 908 with vias 420, 1002 formed or drilled 1000 through the substrate 808 to the components' leads 412. Then the assembly is plated 1200 and the encapsulation and drilling process 1500 repeated to build up desired layers 422, 1502, 1702. Assemblies may be mated 1800. Within the mated assemblies, items may be inserted including pins 2202a, 2202b, and 2202c, mezzanine interconnection devices 2204, heat spreaders 2402, and combination heat spreaders and heat sinks 2602. Edge card connectors 2802 may be attached to the mated assemblies.

Abstract:
An apparatus is disclosed that improves density of electrical components in a circuit assembly. Electrical components 202, 204 are stacked so that they overlap each other and are encapsulated in an electronic insulating material 104. The resulting subassembly may be integrated onto a printed circuit board or into a reverse-interconnection process assembly.
Abstract:
An electrical device in the form of a light emitting diode (LED) assembly. A plurality of LEDs are provided, wherein each has an anode and a cathode. A base holds this plurality of LEDs in a substantially fixed relationship. One or more anode conductors then each connect electrically to one or more of the LED anodes in a manner characterized by not including any solder material. Similarly, one or more cathode conductors each connect electrically to one or more of the LED cathodes in a manner characterized by not including any solder material.

The present invention provides an electronic assembly (400) and a method for its manufacture (800), (900, 1000 1200, 1400, 1500, and 1700). The assembly (400) uses no solder. Components (406) or component packages (402, 802, 804, 806) with I/O leads (412) are placed (800) onto a planar substrate (808). The assembly is encapsulated (900) with electrically insulating material (908) with vias (420, 1002) formed or drilled (1000) through the substrate (808) to the components' leads (412). Then the assembly is plated (1200) and the encapsulation and drilling process (1500) repeated to build up desired layers (422, 1502, 1702). The planar substrate (808) may be a flexible substrate (2016) allowing bending of an assembly (2000) to fit into various enclosures.
