  • Solder interconnections for flat circuits
    Patent number: 6794580
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating the interconnection of the conductors of a flat circuit. A flat circuit substrate is provided with a plurality of conductors thereon. A dielectric film on the substrate substantially covers the conductors. An opening is formed in the film to selectively expose the conductors. A layer of solder material is preapplied to the exposed conductors in the opening. Therefore, the opening can be juxtaposed with a mating conductor to facilitate interconnecting the conductors by an appropriate soldering process using the preapplied solder material.
    Type: Grant
