Multi-printed circuit assembly

Claim 1

A modular assembly comprising a plurality of support boards, a plurality of printed circuit boards mounted on said plurality of support boards, including at least one printed circuit board on at least one of said plurality of support boards and including at least two printed circuit boards on another of said plurality of support boards, each printed circuit board containing a plurality of components and a plurality of terminals, means electrically connecting said plurality of components to said plurality of terminals, means mounting at least said one printed circuit board to one side of at least said one of said plurality of support boards and means mounting at least said two printed circuit boards on said another of said plurality of support boards, a first binding panel, means attaching at least one edge of each of said support boards to said first binding panel, means attaching said plurality of said support boards to said first binding panel by attaching at least one edge of each of said plurality of support boards to said first binding panel, means electrically connecting said components on at least one of said printed circuit boards mounted on said one of said plurality of support boards to at least one of said two printed circuit boards on said another of said plurality of support boards, said components each including an integrated circuit, a plurality of socket means each comprising a plurality of separate contacts, said plurality of socket means being attached to each of said printed circuit boards, each socket means receiving and holding a plurality of separate leads of an integrated circuit, each of said contacts being contactable of at least one of said leads, and said plurality of terminals are arrayed in column and row manner on each printed circuit board with said plurality of sockets located at approximately the middle column of each printed circuit board, said modular assembly further comprising laminated conductor means including contact leads with each lead connecting with a predetermined one of said socket contacts and including terminal leads with each lead connecting with a predetermined one of said terminals, with the number of said laminated conductors approximately equal to the number of said terminals connected to the separate electrical contacts in each socket, and in which said laminated conductor means comprises a plurality of electroconductive layers with an electrically shielding layer and an electrically insulating layer connected between each electroconductive layer and an opposing shielding layer.
