Patent ID: 7189929

Claim:
an insulative substrate having a first surface on a first side of said insulative substrate, a second surface on a second side of said insulative substrate opposite said first side, and a peripheral edge, said peripheral edge of said insulative substrate forming at least one notch that defines an open space; an electrical conductor line bonded to said first surface of said insulative substrate; a first cover layer bonded to said first surface of said insulative substrate and to said electrical conductor line said first cover layer extending beyond said peripheral edge of said insulative substrate at said at least one notch so as to extend into said open space; and a second cover layer bonded to said second surface of said insulative substrate, said second cover layer also extending beyond said peripheral edge of said insulative substrate at said at least one notch so as to extend into said open space, said second cover layer being bonded to said first cover layer at said open space such that said first and second cover layers form an encapsulation region that partially encapsulates said insulative substrate.
