Abstract

According to some embodiments of the present invention, a connectable electronic component-carrying board is provided. The connectable electronic board comprises at least one resilient conductive element integrally molded onto at least part of a contact of the connectable board. The resilient conductive element is able to provide an electrical pathway between the contact it is molded to and a corresponding contact on another electronic component-carrying board. A method of fabricating the connectable electronic component-carrying board is also provided.
