Claim:
A method of making a flexible micro cable, the method comprising: arranging four copper conductors of micrometer diameter in parallel, equally spaced apart, and of equal length; insulating the four conductors by application of a first and second length of polyimide tapes on a top and bottom of the copper conductors, respectively; applying a first and second 50 micrometer thick copper tape to the outside of each of the first and second polyimide tapes, respectively, along the length of the polyimide tapes, forming the electromagnetic interference shield; applying an outer layer of polyimide tape to each exposed side of the first and second copper tapes, wherein the outer layer of polyimide tapes have a greater width than a width of the copper tapes; and pressing together outer first and second edges of the outer layer polyimide tapes, which are beyond the width of the copper tapes.
