Abstract
A biomedical electrode includes a hydrogel layer, a trace layer above the hydrogel layer, the trace layer having a conductive trace, a conductive adhesive layer above the trace layer, and a terminal above the conductive adhesive layer. The hydrogel layer, trace layer, conductive adhesive layer, and terminal are assembled together without requiring a piloting effect to overcome misalignment between these components.
