Claim:
1. A touch input device, comprising: a touch input medium configured to receive a touch input; a first conductive trace coupled to the touch input medium, wherein the first conductive trace forms a first electrical connection pad on the touch input medium; a second conductive trace coupled to the touch input medium, wherein the second conductive trace forms a second electrical connection pad on the touch input medium; and a transducer electrically coupled to the first conductive trace and the second conductive trace and coupled to the touch input medium via a non-conductive adhesive, wherein the first electrical connection pad includes a first plurality of void areas between segments of the first conductive trace, and the non-conductive adhesive in each of the first plurality of void areas of the first electrical connection pad couples a first connection terminal on the transducer to the touch input medium through the first plurality of void areas of the first electrical connection pad, and the second electrical connection pad includes a second plurality of void areas between segments of the second conductive trace, and the non-conductive adhesive in each of the second plurality of void areas of the second electrical connection pad couples a second connection terminal on the transducer to the touch input medium through the second plurality of void areas of the second electrical connection pad; wherein a conductive adhesive is not utilized in coupling the first connection terminal on the transducer or the second connection terminal on the transducer to the touch input medium.
