Patent ID: 6973716

Claim:
A method for making an electronic article comprising: providing an insulating substrate for the electronic article having an electrical conductor thereon, wherein the insulating substrate is of a material that is not dimensionally stable, wherein the electrical conductor includes first and second contact sites spaced apart substantially a predetermined distance; providing an insulating electronic jumper substrate of a dimensionally stable material and having a length substantially the predetermined distance between first and second opposing ends, having first and second contact sites at the first and second opposing ends thereof, respectively, and having first and second terminals respectively connected to the first and second contact sites thereof; mounting an electronic device to the electronic jumper substrate with first and second contacts of the electronic device connected to the first and second terminals of the electronic jumper substrate; and then mounting the electronic jumper substrate to the insulating substrate with the first and second contact sites of the electronic jumper substrate electrically connecting with the first and second contact sites of the insulating substrate.
