Patent ID: 6877211

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a microelectronic component package composing: providing a microelectronic component having a plurality of individual conductors; forming a component base having at least one sidewall, at least one internal recess, said recess adapted to at least partially receive said microelectronic component, and a plurality of raised elements, said raised elements mounted at least partially on said at least one sidewall, adjacent ones of said raised elements forming channels defined by said adjacent raised elements and said sidewall, said raised elements further defining a cavity for at least partly receiving said conductors; disposing said microelectronic component within said internal recess of said component base such that pairs of said individual conductors are disposed at least partially within respective ones of said cavities; routing individual conductors of said pairs in respective ones of said channels so as to provide electrical separation between said conductors; inserting electrical leads into respective ones of said channels; and forming an electrical connection between said leads and respective ones of said individual conductors.
