Abstract

The substrate includes an alignment slot in at least one of its side edges, and includes metallization coupled electrically to the micro component and extending from the front surface of the substrate to its back surface via at least one of the alignment slots. The assembly also includes a cover attached to the substrate so as to encapsulate the micro component. The cover includes at least one protrusion on its underside such that each protrusion mates with a respective alignment slot in the side edges of the substrate.
