Abstract
An electrical interconnect comprising a non-conductive substrate having respective opposite surfaces and a plurality of apertures formed therein extending between the respective opposite surfaces, and a corresponding plurality of elastic conductive interconnect elements located within the plurality of apertures, in which each elastic conductive interconnect element extends between the respective opposite surfaces of the substrate. Each elastic conductive interconnect element is formed of a non-conductive elastic material having a quantity of conductive flakes and a quantity of conductive powder granules interspersed therein. The interconnect elements can be integrally molded in the substrate or separately formed and inserted in the substrate.
