Abstract

An electrical assembly having an integrated circuit package which has a plurality of electrical conductors fixed thereto. The electrical conductors form mechanical and electrical connections. Each of the electrical conductors has a root at one end and a tip at the other end. The root of each conductor is attached to the integrated circuit package to form a fixed electrical and mechanical connection. The tip of each conductor is adapted to be connected to a surface at a predetermined location. Each of the electrical conductors has at least two bends between the root and the tip for providing strain relief when the tip is connected to a surface.
