Method for providing a wire connection to a printed circuit board

1. A method for providing a connection of a set of wires to a printed circuit board, the method comprising:

attaching first ends of the set of wires at a first location on the printed circuit board, wherein the set of wires comprises at least two wires;

attaching second ends of the set of wires at a second location of the printed circuit board, to form an arched set of wires;

applying an encapsulant on the printed circuit board, the encapsulant forming a film through which the arched set of wires protrudes; and

cutting the arched set of wires to yield out-of-plane wires connected to the printed circuit board;

wherein the printed circuit board includes one or more light-emitting diodes configured to receive power from the out-of-plane wires.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising attaching a connector to the out-of-plane wires.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the connector comprises a crimp connector.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first location and the second location are electrically connected via an in-plane connection disposed on the printed circuit board.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the printed circuit board comprises a rigid printed circuit board.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the printed circuit board comprises a flexible printed circuit board.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the printed circuit board includes one or more light-emitting diodes configured to receive power from the out-of-plane wire.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant comprises an epoxy.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the encapsulant is a silicone.

10. A method for providing a connection of a set of wires to a set of printed circuit boards including a first printed circuit board and a second printed circuit board, the method comprising:

attaching first ends of the set of wires at a first location on the first printed circuit board, wherein the set of wires comprises at least two wires;

attaching second ends of the set of wires at a second location on the first printed circuit board, to form an arched set of wires, the second location being electrically connected to the first location;

applying an encapsulant on the first printed circuit board, the encapsulant forming a film through which the arched set of wires protrudes;

cutting the arched set of wires to yield out-of-plane wires connected to the first printed circuit board; and

providing an in-plane connection from one of the first location and the second location to a third location situated on the second printed circuit board;

wherein the printed circuit board includes one or more light-emitting diodes configured to receive power from the out-of-plane wires.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising attaching a third printed circuit board configured to receive power from one of the first and second printed circuit boards.

12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising providing power to the first printed circuit board and the second printed circuit board via the out-of-plane wires.

13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising attaching a connector to the out-of-plane wires.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the connector comprises a crimp connector.

15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first and second printed circuit boards each comprise a flexible printed circuit board.

16. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first and second printed circuit boards each comprise a rigid printed circuit board.

17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first and second printed circuit boards each includes a set of light emitting diodes, and providing the power to the first printed circuit board causes each set of light emitting diodes to receive power.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the encapsulant comprises an epoxy.

19. The method of claim 10 , wherein the encapsulant comprises a silicone.

20. The method of claim 10 , further comprising forming a second out-of-plane wire connection to the first printed circuit board.
