Abstract
A module of implantable cortical and/or intra-cortical comprising a first electrode and a second electrode. Each electrode has a base with interconnect pads adapted to be connected to a processor, a stem having interface pads on a first face, the interface pads adapted to contact soft tissue, routing tracks between the interconnect pads and the interface pads, and abutment surfaces on the second face of each said electrode. The abutment surfaces of the first electrode and of the second electrode are complementary, whereby the first electrode and the second electrode form a translation joint along a length of the stem when the electrodes are joined.
