Abstract

A package for maintaining alignment of components includes a frame and a beam with the beam attached to the frame and one end of the beam. One or more components are mounted to the beam. The frame and a portion of the beam are separated from each other by a channel which allows portions of the beam to flex substantially independently of the frame when a force is applied to the frame. Thus, the effects resulting from forces applied to the frame are not experienced by the beam, or are at least attenuated, so that the alignment of the components mounted on the beam is substantially preserved.
