Patent attributes
A printable electronic component includes a component substrate and a circuit disposed in or on the component substrate. One or more electrically conductive connection posts protrude from the component substrate. One or more electrically conductive component contact pads are exposed on or over the component substrate on a side of the component substrate opposite the one or more connection posts. The one or more component contact pads and the one or more electrically conductive connection posts are both electrically connected to the circuit. The components can be printed onto a destination substrate and electrically connected to contact pads on the destination substrate through the connection posts. The components can also be printed onto other components and electrically connected through the connection posts and component contact pads to form a three-dimensional electronic structure.
