Abstract
A decal (51) having a conductive pattern is first fabricated. This fabrication includes plating a layer of a conductive material (22) using a thermal spraying method. After completing the fabrication of the decal (51) having the conductive pattern, the decal (51) is then affixed to a component (81). In one embodiment, heat and pressure is used to bond the decal (51) to the component (81). In an alternative embodiment, the decal (51) is placed in a mold (61) from which the component (81) is to be molded. Resin (71), forming the component (81), is then placed into the mold (61). After molding, a device comprising the component (81) with the conductive pattern is thus formed. The result of both embodiments is a device with a conductive pattern affixed on at least one of the device's surfaces.
