1. A method comprising:
- attaching a first conductor formed on top of a first substrate containing a functional block to a second conductor of a large-scale component, the functional block being attached to a first substrate and being electrically connected to the first conductor, and the large-scale component being formed on a second substrate;
the first conductor being interconnected to the second conductor by an anisotropic conductive medium using one of thermosonic bonding and thermocompression bonding;
each of the first conductor and the second conductor being independently made out of any one of a metal, a thermoplastic material, and a thermosetting material.

Abstract
An apparatus incorporating small-feature size and large-feature-size components. The apparatus comprise a strap including a substrate with an integrated circuit contained therein. The integrated circuit coupling to a first conductor disposed on the substrate. The first conductor is made of a thermosetting or a thermoplastic material including conductive fillers. A large-scale component having a second conductor is electrically coupled to the first conductor to electrically couple the large-scale component to the integrated circuit. The large-scale component includes a second substrate.
