Abstract:
1. A programmable interposer comprising: top and bottom interface electrodes having one or more top interface electrodes offset from one or more bottom interface electrodes along an axis that is parallel to the top and bottom interface electrodes, wherein one or more of the top interface electrodes are non-overlapping with one or more of the bottom interface electrodes; and conductive particles electrically connecting the top and bottom interface electrodes in one or more programmed states of the programmable interposer, the one or more programmed states including a programmed state that electrically connects the conductive particles from a bottom interface electrode to a non-overlapping top interface electrode, the conductive particles configured to form different aligned configurations between said top and bottom interface electrodes in response to application of different energy fields to said programmable interposer.
