Abstract
An assembly for coupling an electrical device with a rigid structure using a flex circuit is provided. The assembly includes a staple having posts which extend into the rigid structure and secure the staple to the rigid structure. The flex circuit couples with both the rigid structure and the electrical device. The flex circuit extends between the staple and the rigid structure such that the flex circuit couples with the rigid structure thereby providing an interconnection between the electrical device and the rigid structure.
