Abstract
A technique for providing an elastic RF interconnection between first and second planar conductors, which provides stress relief against mechanical and environment stresses. A length of a compressible wire bundle having first and second end portions is used as the elastic conductor. The first end portion is attached to an end of the first conductor. The second end portion is attached to an end of the second conductor. In a typical application, the first and second conductors are disposed on separate substrates, in turn mounted to a package surface.
