The present invention provides an improvement on the use of flexible circuit connectors for electrically coupling IC devices to one another in a stacked configuration by use of the flexible circuit to provide the connection of the stacked IC module to other circuits. Use of the flexible circuit as the connection of the IC module allows the flexible circuit to provide strain relief and allows stacked IC modules to be assembled with a lower profile than with previous methods. The IC module can be connected to external circuits through the flexible circuit connectors by a variety of means, including solder pads, edge connector pads, and socket connectors. This allows for IC devices to occupy less space then with previous methods, which is beneficial in modules such as memory modules with multiple, stacked memory devices.
