Systems and methods for providing an electronics module including a raceway for mounting submodules and establishing electrical communication with said submodules. The raceway comprises a base structure and a conductive trace formed by a conductive plating process. Connection pads on the raceway are configured to receive connection nodes of the submodules for providing a continuous electrical connection between the raceway and the submodules for electrical communication and power transmission.

Electronics module with raceway and submodules

Shelf-stable, rapid crosslinking, 'all-in-one' pastes useful as “inks” in additive manufacturing are provided. These pastes exhibit desirable rheological flow properties and crosslinking upon exposure to UV light. The pastes are based on vinylsilyl-functionalized, completely amorphous, linear terpolysiloxanes containing predominantly dimethylsiloxy- repeat units with small amounts of diphenylsiloxy-, methylphenylsiloxy-, diethylsiloxy-, and/or methyltrifluoroalkylsiloxy- crystallization disruptors. The base polymers are preferably compounded with a trimethylsilylated-hydrophobic silica filler, thixotropic flow agent, hydrosilyl-functionalized oligomeric crosslinker, and a catalytic system comprising platinum (II) acetylacetonate or trimethyl(methylcyclopentadienyl)-platinum (IV), and diethyl azodicarboxylate.
