ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing an electrical circuit system comprising electrical conductors on a flexible film and an article of manufacture made thereby, which may be used in place of printed circuit boards and which conductors form connector means for readily connecting to the leads of one or more sides of an electronic package. The electrical conductors also form a means for selectably connecting each electrical conductor from each pin to a selected input or output conductor, comprising a first and second plurality of conductors, such as a matrix having a column of conductors and a row of conductors. The electrical circuit system may be manufactured by numerous methods such as applying a conductive ink or paint by screening, photolithography or drawn by a digital plotter on a plastic film, such as Mylar. The film may include electrical edge connection means to provide input or output to or from said conductors. All or most of the system is integral, thus forming the conductors and the in-line connector portion of the conductors in continuum, using the same conductive material, such as ink, or paint and the same dielectric material, such as ink, or paint. A dielectric covers the appropriate portion of the system.
