Separable electrical connectors using isotropic conductive elastomer interconnect medium
View Patent ↗An electrical connector using an isotropic conductive elastomer as the interconnect medium.
1. An electrical connector for providing an electrical connection between an adaptor board and a main circuit board, comprising:
an interconnect medium having an isotropic conductive elastomer that provides an electrical connection between said adaptor board and said main circuit board and said electrical connector is formed as lands on a surface of said main circuit board opposingly facing lands of said adaptor board where said lands of said main circuit board are coated with an isotropic elastomer material.
2. The electrical connector of claim 1 wherein said isotropic elastomer material is an elastomer.
3. The electrical connector of claim 1 wherein said isotropic elastomer material is an isotropic paste.
4. The electrical connector according to claim 1 wherein said electrical connections from pins of a test circuit are rerouted to the pads of a test circuit of the adaptor board and the pads of the main circuit board by rerouting the electrical connection from an upper surface of the pads to pads of a bottom surface of the adaptor board.
5. The electrical connector according to claim 1 wherein electrical connections from the pins of a test circuit are rerouted to the pads of said adaptor board and the pads of the main circuit board by rerouting the electrical connection from an upper surface of the pads on the adaptor board to pads of a bottom surface of the main circuit board.
