Abstract
A method for aligning interconnects that includes trimming and forming a frame of strips of interconnects. The frame of strips of interconnects includes interdigitated pins. The method also includes removing siderails from the frame of strips of interconnects to provide an array of strips of interconnects. The method includes aligning a first set of strips of interconnects in the array of strips of interconnects such that pins of the first set of strips of interconnects are aligned with pins of a second set of strips of interconnects in the array of strips of interconnects. A strip of interconnects of the first set of strips of interconnects are adjacent to a strip of interconnects of the second set of strips of interconnects to provide an aligned array of strips of interconnects. The method further includes singulating the aligned array of strips of interconnects.
