Abstract
A field programmable printed circuit board is provided which includes a multiplicity of component contacts for making electrical contact to the leads of electronic components to be mounted on the printed circuit board, a corresponding multiplicity of interconnect contacts for receipt of the leads on the package or packages of a programmable integrated circuit-or circuits for interconnecting as desired the electronic components, and one or more layers of conductive traces formed on the printed circuit board, each conductive trace uniquely connecting electrically one component contact to one interconnect contact.
