Abstract

See full text

The disclosed embodiments relate to the formation of an electrical contact using a skiving technique. The electrical contact includes a spring structure that has been skived away from an underlying metal body, but the spring remains coupled with the metal body which provides a base for the spring structure. The skived spring portion of the electrical contact may comprise a cantilever-like spring, a coil-like spring, or any other suitable type of spring. Such a spring contact may be used to form an electrical connection between an integrated circuit device and a circuit board (or other substrate). Other embodiments are described and claimed.
