Process for producing a contact-making device
First Claim
1. A process for producing a contact-making device for making electrical contact between components, which comprises the step of:
- producing an electrical zero-insertion-force connector including the steps of;
forming an elastic dielectric with at least two elastic dielectric layers and at least one structured metal layer disposed between the at least two elastic dielectric layers, the elastic dielectric having an upper side and an underside being the upper side and the underside, respectively, of the zero-insertion-force connector;
structuring the elastic dielectric;
forming a number of contact points on the upper side and the underside of the zero-insertion-force connector; and
forming a number of electrically conducting connections in and through the elastic dielectric such that the electrically conducting connections connect a number of the contact points to one another.

Abstract
A process for producing a contact-making device is provided for making electrical contact between components, which includes the step of producing an electrical zero-insertion-force connector which further includes the step of forming an elastic dielectric with at least two elastic dielectric layers and at least one structured metal layer disposed between the two elastic dielectric layers. The elastic dielectric has an upper side and an underside being the upper side and the underside, respectively, of the zero-insertion-force connector. The process also includes the step of structuring the elastic dielectric, forming a number of contact points on the upper side and the underside of the zero-insertion-force connector; and forming a number of electrically conducting connections in and through the elastic dielectric such that the electrically conducting connections connect a number of the contact points to one another.
