Standoff arrangements to control distance and provide electrical function

A components-mounting method comprising:

• mounting at least two electrical components having opposing conductive grid-array patterns for electrical connection thereof;
• and
• interposing a standoff device to provide predetermined control of a standoff distance between the at least two electrical components mounted together with opposing conductive grid array patterns, and an electrical function structure to provide a predetermined electrical function to at least one of the electrical components.

A standoff/electrical device comprising a standoff member having a predetermined rigid standoff thickness and disposable between electrical components mounted together with opposing conductive grid array patterns so as to maintain a predetermined distance therebetween, the standoff member having an electrical path electrically connectable to at least one of the electrical components.
