Provided are flexible hybrid interconnect circuits and methods of forming thereof. A flexible hybrid interconnect circuit comprises multiple conductive layers, stacked and spaced apart along the thickness of the circuit. Each conductive layer comprises one or more conductive elements, one of which is operable as a high frequency (HF) signal line. Other conductive elements, in the same and other conductive layers, form an electromagnetic shield around the HF signal line. Some conductive elements in the same circuit are used for electrical power transmission. All conductive elements are supported by one or more inner dielectric layers and enclosed by outer dielectric layers. The overall stack is thin and flexible and may be conformally attached to a non-planar surface. Each conductive layer may be formed by patterning the same metallic sheet. Multiple pattern sheets are laminated together with inner and outer dielectric layers to form a flexible hybrid interconnect circuit.
A flexible interconnect circuit having a length, a width, a thickness, and an aspect ratio defined as a ratio of the width to the thickness, the flexible interconnect circuit comprising:
