Abstract:
1. An electrical apparatus conductive contacts formed on each of a plurality of individual circuits formed on a substrate; a spacer sealed onto the substrate, the spacer peripherally enclosing each of to individual circuits while exposing the conductive contacts; a cover sealed on the spacer; first conductive feedthroughs penetrating the cover, and positioned peripheral to each of the individual circuits; second conductive feedthroughs through the spacer positioned collinearly with the first conductive feedthroughs and in electrical continuity therewith; conductive pads formed on a bottom surface of the cover, the conductive pads in electrical continuity with the conductive contacts of the individual circuits; conductive paths formed on the bottom surface of the cover, the conductive paths each joining at least one of the conductive pads with at least one of the first conductive feedthroughs thereby establishing electrical continuity between the individual circuits and the first and second conductive feedthroughs; cover, spacer and substrate severed through the first and second conductive feedthroughs thereby separating the individual circuits and establishing a conductive surface on the top and side of the cover and on the side of the spacer at each of the conductive feedthroughs, whereby solder interconnects may be more easily seen on the individual circuit.
