Claim:
1. A module comprising: a dielectric layer; a first component having a height defined between a first surface and a second surface thereof, wherein the first surface of the first component is attached to the dielectric layer; at least one other component having a height defined between a first surface and a second surface thereof, wherein the first surface of the at least one other component is attached to the dielectric layer; and a conducting shim assembly having a top surface, a bottom surface, and at least one conductive contact layer, wherein a first portion of the bottom surface of the conducting shim assembly is coupled to the second surface of the first component via the at least one conductive layer and a second portion of the bottom surface of the conducting shim assembly is coupled to the second surface of the at least one other component via the at least one conductive contact layer; wherein the first portion of the bottom surface of the conducting shim assembly is positioned at a first height within the module and the second portion of the bottom surface of the conducting shim assembly is positioned at a second height within the module, the first height different from the second height; and wherein only one conductive contact layer of the at least one conductive contact layer is positioned between the top surface of the conducting shim assembly and the second surface of the at least one other component.
