    摘要: An integrated multilayer structure, includes a substrate film having a first side and an opposite second side. The substrate film includes electrically substantially insulating material, a circuit design including a number of electrically conductive areas of electrically conductive material on the first and/or second sides of the substrate film, and a connector including a number of electrically conductive contact elements. The connector is provided to the substrate film so that it extends to both the first and second sides of the substrate film and the number of electrically conductive contact elements connect to one or more of the conductive areas of the circuit design while being further configured to electrically couple to an external connecting element responsive to mating the external connecting element with the connector on the first or second side of or adjacent to the substrate film.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing an integrated multilayer structure includes obtaining a substrate film having first and second sides, providing at least on the first side one or more first functional features, arranging at least one layer upon at least the first side; removing, at least a portion of the substrate film so that space is released in the structure wherein a detachment-enhancing feature provided to the substrate film is configured to facilitate the removal of the at least a portion of the substrate film such that the adjacent remaining film material, if any, the arranged layer and the one or more first functional features are preserved and preferably remain substantially intact; and providing at least one second functional feature into the space released for use so that the at least one second functional feature operatively connects with at least one of the one or more first functional features.

    摘要: An integrated multilayer structure includes a substrate film including an electrically insulating material; a circuit design including electrically conductive elements provided on the substrate film, the conductive elements defining a number of contact areas; a connector at the edge of the substrate film, the connector including a number of electrically conductive elongated contact elements, such as pins, connected to the contact areas of the conductive elements of the circuit design on the substrate film while further extending from the substrate film to couple to an external connecting element responsive to mating the external connecting element with the connector; and at least one plastic layer molded onto the substrate film so as to at least partially cover the circuit design and only partially cover the connector.
