Abstract

The steps of forming a multi-layer flexible printed circuit cable (flex circuit) with an electrical interconnection between independent conductive layers. In accordance with various embodiments, a partial aperture is formed in the flex circuit that extends through a first conductive layer and an intervening insulative layer to an underlying surface of a second conductive layer that spans the partial aperture. A solder material is reflowed within the partial aperture to electrically interconnect the first and second conductive layers.
