Abstract

A microelectronic component, such as a connector or a packaged semiconductor device is made by connecting multiple leads between a pair of elements and moving the elements away from one another so as to bend the leads toward a vertically extensive disposition. One of the elements includes a temporary support which is removed after the bending operation and after injecting and curing a dielectric material to form a dielectric layer surrounding and supporting the leads.
