This application discloses a new and improved thermal ink jet printhead and method of manufacture wherein a tape automated bond (TAB) flexible circuit is sequentially thermosonically bonded in a one-by-one wire bonding process to aligned conductive traces on a thin film resistor substrate. These traces provide electrical current paths for a corresponding plurality of heater resistors on the substrate, and these resistors function to heat a corresponding plurality of ink reservoirs in a thermal ink jet printhead.
