Patent ID: 8154827

Claim:
A conductor assembly for electrically interconnecting first and second electrical components comprising: a generally planar support member having a length extending between first and second ends, the support member comprising an electrically conductive substrate and an electrical insulator layer on the substrate, the substrate having a first island near the support member's first end and the insulator layer having a plurality of vias at said first island; a first set of generally parallel electrically conductive lines on the insulator layer and extending generally along the length of the support member, each line of said first set having an end located at a via at said first island and electrically connected to said first island and thereby to all other lines in said first set; a first electrical lead on the insulator layer near said first end and electrically connected to at least one of the lines of the first set and thereby to all lines in said first set; and a second set of generally parallel electrically conductive lines on the insulator layer and extending generally along the length of the support member, the lines of the first and second sets being interleaved along the length of the support member.
