Claim Text:
1. A circuit assembly comprising: a combined interposer comprising a plurality of constituent interposers, each constituent interposer comprising a substrate, the substrates being laterally spaced from each other; wherein the combined interposer comprises a first circuit layer comprising a circuitry and physically contacting a top surface of two or more of the substrates, the circuitry comprising a circuit extending over at least two of said two or more of the substrates; wherein for each of two or more of the constituent interposers, the constituent interposer comprises a first constituent circuit layer which is part of the first circuit layer, the first constituent circuit layer being present on a top surface of the constituent interposer's substrate, the first constituent circuit layer comprising circuitry; wherein the first circuit layer comprises first contact pads on top; wherein the circuit assembly further comprises one or more circuit modules at least one of which comprises an integrated circuit, the one or more circuit modules overlying the first circuit layer, each circuit module comprising one or more contact pads attached to one or more first contact pads; wherein at least a portion of at least one first contact pad overlies a gap separating at least two of the adjacent substrates from each other.
