Multilayer structure with embedded multilayer electronics
First Claim
1. An integrated multilayer assembly for an electronic device comprising:
- a first substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least a first side thereof, the first substrate film having the first side and a second side opposite the first side;
a second substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least a first side thereof, the second substrate film having the first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first sides of the first and second substrate films being configured to face each other, at least one of the first or second substrate films preformed to a three-dimensional, non-planer, shape;
at least one electrical feature on the first side of the first substrate film;
at least one other electrical feature on the first side of the second substrate film, wherein at least one of the at least one electrical feature or the at least one other electrical feature is a mounted electronic component; and
a molded plastic layer between the first and second substrate films at least partially embedding the electrical features on the first sides thereof.

Abstract
An integrated multilayer assembly for an electronic device includes a first substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least first side thereof, said first substrate film having the first side and a substantially opposing second side, a second substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least first side thereof, said second substrate film having the first side and a substantially opposing second side, the first sides of the first and second substrate films being configured to face each other, at least one electrical feature on the first side of the first substrate film, at least one other electrical feature on the first side of the second substrate film, and a molded plastic layer between the first and second substrate films at least partially embedding the electrical features on the first sides thereof.

12. A method of establishing an integrated multilayer assembly for an electronic device comprising:
-
obtaining a first substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least a first side thereof, the first substrate film having the first side and a second side opposite the first side; obtaining a second substrate film configured to accommodate electrical features on at least a first side thereof, the second substrate film having the first side and a second side opposite the first side; providing at least one electrical feature on the first side of the first substrate film; providing at least one other electrical feature on the first side of the second substrate film, wherein at least one of the at least one electrical feature or the at least one other electrical feature is a mounted electronic component; forming at least one of the first or second substrates into a selected substantially non-planar three-dimensional shape subsequent to providing the at least one electrical feature thereon; arranging the first and second substrate films in a mold so that the first sides thereof face each other in spaced relation subsequent to forming the at least one of the first or section substrates into the selected substantially non-planar three-dimensional shape; and molding a plastic layer between the first and second substrate films and at least partially embedding the electrical features on the first sides thereof. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An integrated multilayer assembly for an electronic device comprising:
-
a first substrate film having a first side and a second side opposite the first side; a first electrical feature on the first side of the first substrate film; a second substrate film having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first sides of the first and second substrate films opposing one another, wherein at least one of the first or second substrate films is preformed to a three-dimensional, non-planer, shape and wherein at least one of the first or second substrate films comprises a window of optically opaque, translucent, or transparent material having regard to a predetermined frequency or frequency band; a second electrical feature on the first side of the second substrate film, at least one of the first or second electrical feature being a mounted electronic component; and a molded plastic layer between the first and second substrate films at least partially embedding the first and second electrical feature.
