  • Patent number: 6222126
    Abstract: An electrical interconnect includes a woven mesh in which an array of parallel wires is retained in spaced relation by a transverse array of nonconducting strands, the mesh being enclosed or encased within a resilient matrix. The conductive wires are on a close pitch to yield greater current carrying capacity and achieve a lower more stable resistance. With this construction a great number of wires are in contact with each contact pad to yield greater current carrying capacity and corresponding lower resistance. The closer pitch wires also provide greater redundancy of contact points. This structure can be custom configured in as many layers or in a variety of shapes as is desirable to achieve a given electrical performance. The woven mesh can be wrapped around a shaped substrate to provide electrical connections in a desired shape.
