Patent ID: 8716867

Claim:
A method of forming a device comprising: providing a substrate comprising a conductive feature, wherein the conductive feature comprises a through-substrate via extending through a first major side of the substrate to a second major side of the substrate opposite the first major side; providing a first dielectric sheet having a first through-hole with a size greater than the size of a top portion of the through-substrate via; printing first conductive patterns on the first dielectric sheet to form a first pre-ink-printed sheet; bonding the first pre-ink-printed sheet onto a first side of the substrate wherein the through-substrate via extends into the first through-hole without extending laterally over the first side of the substrate and the top portion of the through-substrate via fits into the first through-hole; and applying a conductive material in the first though-hole and over a portion of the through-substrate via in the through-hole to electrically couple the first conductive patterns to the conductive feature of the substrate.
