Patent ID: 7281324

Claim:
A method of simultaneously fabricating a plurality of circuit blocks, wherein each circuit block is configured for aligned positioning onto a housing of an individual electrical connector, comprising: simultaneously fabricating a plurality of circuits in an X-Y grid on a single sheet of material; cutting a repeating pattern of holes across the single sheet of material such that identically shaped sections are formed around each of the plurality of circuits, with each section having one or more peripheral edges such that at least one hole is associated with each of the peripheral edges, with the holes being substantially evenly spaced around the periphery of each section, with at least two sections being defined in the X direction of the grid and at least two sections being defined in the Y direction of the grid; and separating the single sheet into sections, each section comprising a circuit block, wherein each of the sections is shaped to be receivable in only one orientation into the housing of the electrical connector.
