Method of making an electronic assembly having a flexible circuit wrapped around a substrate

摘要

An electronic package assembly that includes a flexible circuit wrapped around a metal substrate. The leads of the flexible circuit are connected to an integrated circuit that is mounted to the top surface of the substrate. The flexible circuit has a plurality of metal pads located adjacent to the bottom surface of the substrate. The flexible circuit also contains a power/ground plane and a number of conductive signal lines that couple the integrated circuit to the metal pads. The pads can be soldered to a printed circuit board to electrically couple the integrated circuit to the board.
