Abstract

A three-dimensional multi-layer electronic device and method for manufacturing same, wherein the device comprises a three-dimensional substrate including a conductive trace on at least one surface of the substrate, a thin layer of dielectric material substantially covering a desired portion of the conductive trace(s) on the substrate, the dielectric layer including vias at selected locations, and applying a coating of conductive material on the dielectric layer and in the vias, and defining a conductive trace in the material to thereby form a multi-layer, interconnected three-dimensional electronic device. Additional layers of dielectric material and conductive traces may be similarly applied to create the desired number of circuit layers. Molded-in structural features, and/or vias may be defined in the appropriate layers to accommodate the attachment and/or interconnection of other electronic devices to the device.
