Abstract
Systems () and methods () for providing a compliant micro-coaxial interconnect with an integrated circuit or other electronic device. The methods comprise: forming a well () in a first substrate () having a first Coefficient of Thermal Expansion ('CTE'); forming at least one three-dimensional micro-coaxial interconnect () on the first substrate so as to have a cantilevered end portion () disposed over the well; and using a first coupler () to electrically couple the cantilevered end portion to a second substrate () having a second CTE different from the first CTE. The cantilevered end portion has an angled joint () so that at least one of a pushing force and a pulling force applied thereby to the first coupler is minimized when mismatching movements of the first and second substrates occur.
