Abstract:
1. A flexible printed circuit pathway, comprising: a first leg of flexible printed circuit oriented in a first plane, wherein signal traces within said first leg run parallel to said first leg of flexible printed circuit; a second leg of flexible printed circuit, wherein signal traces within said second leg run parallel to said second leg of flexible printed circuit; a first bend, coupling said first leg to said second leg and wherein signal traces within said first bend curve to match a curvature of said first bend; a third leg of flexible printed circuit oriented in a second plane, wherein signal traces within said third leg run parallel to said third leg of flexible printed circuit; a second bend, coupling said third leg to said second leg and wherein signal traces within said second bend curve to match a curvature of said second bend; and a spiral object formed by said second leg, wherein said second plane twists about a center of said spiral object without placing a tearing stress on said flexible printed circuit.
