Stichable electrical components have flexible, conductive leads (100) and are encased, at least partially, in sealed packages (105, 110). Conductive threads, yarns, or fiber bundles (120) are patterned onto a flexible substrate (125) (e.g., a textile panel). To form a circuirt, the component leads (100) are conductively stitched, spot welded, or otherwise joined to a textile panel (125) so as to form connections between at least some of the stitched leads (100) so as to form an electrical circuit. Alternatively, leads (120) stitched into or otherwise joined to a textile pattern (125) may be welded or otherwise permanently joined to flexible or non-flexible component leads (100) to form a circuit. Multiple panels of circuitry so formed may then be physically and electrically joined at various locations by a combination of stitching, welding, and/or other joining means, preferably with interposed insulating layers, to form a multilayer flexible circuit. |
