Abstract
Reinforcement members are disposed along only the transverse edge regions of selected flexible cables of an integral chip carrier and cable assembly, and along only the respectively aligned end areas of the chip carrier portion of the assembly. The reinforcement members may be disposed along all of the flexible cables and end areas of the assembly, or on only selected cable and end area portions of the assembly. The reinforcement members are formed of a tough tear resistant polymer material, such as a hot melt adhesive or polymer tape or film.
