Abstract:
A method of interconnecting components comprising:providing a flat multilayer laminate having a plurality of conductive layers separated by insulation;cutting a section of said laminate to have a predetermined shape;removing by machining portions of an exposed one of said conductive layers to form a plurality of conductive traces;machining a hole in said laminate to form a connection to a preselected one of said conductive layers and to isolate an unselected one of said conductive layers, said hole having a first width in said preselected one of said layers and a second larger width in said unselected one of said conductive layers; andinserting a conductive eyelet into said hole to make contact with said preselected one of said conductive layers, the eyelet having a body diameter smaller than the second larger width thereby avoiding electrical contact with the unselected one of said layers.
