Patent ID: 7304247

Claim:
A circuit board, comprising: at least one conductor path defining a first surface, a second surface and a bore passing through said at least one conductor path between said first surface and said second surface; a first insulating layer arranged on said first surface and defining a cavity extending to said first surface, and also defining an extension of said bore; a second insulating layer arranged on said second surface; a first contact location on said first surface at which said conductor path is accessible through said cavity; a second contact location on said first surface at which said conductor path is accessible through the extension of said bore; and an electric component arranged to contact said first surface through said cavity and the extension of said bore, by an electrically conductive adhesive passing through said cavity into contact with said first contact location, and by one of: solder and an electrically conductive adhesive passing through the extension of said bore into contact with said second contact location, wherein: the circuit board is flexible; and said first contact location and said second contact location electrically form a unit with said electronic component.
