Abstract

In one embodiment, the present invention includes a circuit board having integrated contacts to mate with corresponding pads of a semiconductor device. At least some of the integrated contacts are of varying sizes to enable different contact resistances between the corresponding integrated contacts and pads, enabling reduced loading forces to adapt the semiconductor device to the circuit board. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
