ABSTRACT:
A substrate and electrical connector assembly including a unitary panel structure with metal conductors having a rigid main body portion, a rigid marginal edge portion, and a thin flexible section extending between the rigid main body portion and the rigid marginal edge portion. The assembly also includes an at least one conductive lead deposited on a surface of the plastic panel structure which extends from the rigid main body portion across the flexible section to the rigid marginal edge portion. Further included is an at least one conductive terminal affixed to the rigid marginal edge portion which is in electrical connection with the at least one conductive lead. The at least one conductive terminal is adapted to receive a mating connector. The flexible section enables the rigid marginal edge portion to move relative to the rigid main body portion.
