Abstract:
1. A wireless integrated foldable flex microsystem comprising: a programmable microprocessor mounted on a first multi-layer printed circuit board; at least one microelectronic element mounted on a second multi-layer printed circuit board; a wireless telemetry element mounted on a third multi-layer printed circuit board, the wireless telemetry element for receiving data from the at least one microelectronic element and for transmitting the received data to a remote receiving station; and a flexible bi-directional liquid crystal polymer interconnect comprising at least one etched non-electrical interconnect and at least one etched electrical interconnect, the flexible bi-directional liquid crystal polymer interconnect positioned between the layers of the first circuit board, second circuit board and third circuit board and a portion of the flexible bi-directional liquid crystal polymer interconnect extending across a space between said circuit boards, the extending portion of the flexible bi-directional liquid crystal polymer interconnect affording foldability of the microsystem.
