Abstract
A device includes a flexible printed circuit board and one or more conductive stiffeners. The conductive stiffeners include a conductive surface that can be electrically connected to contact pads on the flexible printed circuit board. The wearable device can further include an adhesive layer or an encapsulation layer. The adhesive layer and the encapsulation layer can include conductive portions surrounded by non-conductive portions. The conductive portions can be aligned with the conductive stiffeners and together transmit electrical energy to the contact pads of the flexible printed circuit board.
