Abstract

A multilayer module includes a first active layer with a first edge and second active layer with a second edge. Each active layer includes a flexible, polymer substrate, at least one electronic element, and a plurality of electrically-conductive traces which provide electrical connection from the respective edge to the electronic element of the active layer. The second active layer is adhered to the first active layer so that the first edge and second edge are aligned with each other thereby forming a side of the multilayer module. The multilayer module further includes a plurality of electrically-conductive lines along the side of the multilayer module, the lines providing electrical connection to the traces.
