Abstract
A subtractively created interconnection scheme and apparatus, typically used with microelectronic devices, wherein a flexible support structure is attached to a conductive sheet. The conductive sheet is then selectively removed, preferably using an etching process, thereby producing a plurality of posts with tips which are substantially coplanar with respect to one another. Each post becoming an individual interconnection between the microelectronic device and a supporting substrate.
