Abstract
An Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE)—based electrical connector that interconnects two or more electrical circuit elements. The connector includes at least two layers of ACE separated by alternate interconnection elements that include conductive elements. The conductive elements provide void space for the ACE elastomer to move to during the interconnection process.
Claims13
An Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE) connector that interconnects two or more electrical circuit elements, comprising:
- at least two layers of Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE);
- one or more alternate interconnection elements comprising conductive elements separating the ACE layers, the interconnection elements defining voids into which the ACE elastomer can move during the interconnection process.
A separable electrical connector for electrically interconnecting two electrical circuit elements, comprising:
- an adapter device having a plurality of spaced lands on both sides, thereby defining void volumes at the surfaces between the lands;
- a layer of Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE) between one electrical circuit element and the adapter device;
- and
- a second layer of ACE between the other electrical circuit element and the adapter device.
An Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE) connector that interconnects two or more electrical circuit elements, comprising:
- at least one layer of Anisotropic Conductive Elastomer (ACE) defining compressible artifacts into which the ACE elastomer can move during the interconnection process.
