Abstract

Abstract An electrical interconnection grid consists of two sets of parallel conductors on opposite sides of an insulating board. At least one set of conductors consists of pairs of conductors interconnected at intervals by a conductive strip which is connected to a conductor of the other set by a plated-through hole.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 120 words
An electrical interconnection grid comprising two sets each of electrical conductors parallel to one another and secured to opposite sides of an insulating member with the conductors of one set disposed at an angle with respect to the conductors of the other set, the conductors of at least one set being in pairs the two conductors of each of which pairs are interconnected at spaced locations along the pair by conductive strips each of which is in electrical connection with a conductor of the other set by way of an aperture through the insulating member lined with conductive material, each of which pairs of conductors is electrically isolated from each other pair on the same side of the insulating member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 120 words
An electrical interconnection grid comprising two sets each of electrical conductors parallel to one another and secured to opposite sides of an insulating member with the conductors of one set disposed at an angle with respect to the conductors of the other set, the conductors of at least one set being in pairs the two conductors of each of which pairs are interconnected at spaced locations along the pair by conductive strips each of which is in electrical connection with a conductor of the other set by way of an aperture through the insulating member lined with conductive material, each of which pairs of conductors is electrically isolated from each other pair on the same side of the insulating member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
An interconnection grid as claimed in claim 1 in which the conductors of one set are arranged perpendicular to the conductors of the other set.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 52 words
An interconnection grid as claimed in claim 1 in which the conductors of the other set are also in pairs interconnected at spaced locations along the pair by conductive strips each of which is in electrical connection with a conductive strip of said one set by way of one of said apertures.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 63 words
An interconnection grid as claimed in claim 1 in which the conductors of the other set are also in pairs interconnected at spaced locations along the pair by conductive strips each of which is in electrical connection with a conductive strip of said one set by way of one of said apertures, and in which each aperture is formed through a conductive strip.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 72 words
An interconnection grid as claimed in claim 1 in which the conductors of the other set are also in pairs interconnected at spaced locations along the pair by conductive strips each of which is in electrical connection with a conductive strip of said one set by way of one of said apertures, and in which each aperture is formed through a conductor projecting from but in electrical contact with a conductive strip.
