  • Patent number: 4628406
    Abstract: An integrated circuit package comprises at least two integrated circuit chips each having a plurality of contact pads arranged in a first pattern on the interconnect face of the chip, and an elastic sheet-form interconnect member. The interconnect member has at least two main face areas, associated with the chips respectively, and comprises dielectric material and conductor runs supported by the dielectric material in mutually electrically insulated relationship and having termination points arranged in at least two second patterns at the main face areas respectively and corresponding with the first patterns respectively. The interconnect face of each is in confronting relationship with the associated main face area of the interconnect member, and the contact pads of the chip and the termination points of the associated main face area are in mutually registering relationship. A metallurgical bond is formed between each contact pad and the corresponding termination point.
