ABSTRACT:
A dual durometer ribbon generally consisting of a preform and cover, typically formed by an injection molding process. The preform has a low durometer midsection and a plurality of high durometer ends. The high durometer ends are attached to the low durometer midsection at narrow blend areas where the high durometer material blends with the low durometer material. A plurality of printed circuit termination boards rests within recesses located on the top surface of each of the high durometer ends. The recesses are of uniform depth and have an outer border of uniform thickness. The printed circuit termination boards typically have slotted through holes at a receptacle end of the printed circuit board and female connectors are located on one of the surfaces of the printed circuit boards. A plurality of conductors rest within groves contained on the low durometer midsection. The conductors are terminate at the through holes in the printed circuit termination board. The cover is adhesively attached to the top surface of the preform covering the grooves containing the conductors and the recesses containing the printed circuit termination boards.
