Abstract
A grid connector for communicating with a printed memory includes a substrate and a plurality of first conductive pads coupled to the substrate. Each of the first conductive pads protrudes outward with respect to an outer surface of the substrate. A subset of the first conductive pads is configured to contact a second conductive pad of the printed memory, regardless of an orientation of the printed memory with respect to the grid connector as long as the second conductive pad is within a boundary of the first conductive pads.
