Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. One embodiment includes creating a window for multiple leads in a first plane on a cable. A common bus bar is attached adjacent to the window in a second plane on the cable. A first dissipative adhesive (DA) is applied across at least a portion of the multiple leads to connect the multiple leads to one another and to the common bus bar. At least some leads of the multiple leads are operatively connected to an element of an electronic device.
