Abstract
A method of forming electrically conductive pillars on a printed circuit board by providing a printed circuit board having a plurality of electrical traces and forming a plurality of elongate, electrically conductive pillars of superimposed layers of solder and conductive polymer on the printed circuit board. The elongate, electrically conductive pillars are connected by a first end to the electrical traces of the printed circuit board and extend substantially perpendicularly from the printed circuit board such that a second end of each of the plurality of elongate, electrically conductive pillars lies in substantially a common plane which is substantially perpendicular to and above said printed circuit board.
