Claim 13:
14. A method for aligning interconnects comprising:
trimming and forming a frame of strips of interconnects, wherein the frame of strips of interconnects comprises interdigitated pins;
removing siderails from the frame of strips of interconnects to provide an array of strips of interconnects;
after the trimming and forming the frame of strips of interconnects and after removing the siderails, aligning a first set of strips of interconnects in the array of strips of interconnects such that pins of the first set of strips of interconnects are aligned with pins of a second set of strips of interconnects in the array of strips of interconnects, wherein a strip of interconnects of the first set of strips of interconnects are adjacent to a strip of interconnects of the second set of strips of interconnects to provide an aligned array of strips of interconnects; and
singulating the aligned array of strips of interconnects to provide interconnects for dies of integrated circuit (IC) chips.
