1. A printed circuit board comprising:

  • a printed circuit board capable of resilient deformation and having first and second outer major surfaces and a contact edge; and

    a plurality of electrically conductive traces provided on at least one of the major surfaces leading to a plurality of electrically conductive contact pads at the contact edge of the board;

    wherein the first and second major surfaces define a gap therebetween at the contact edge, wherein the gap permits resilient deformation of the board so that a force is created upon deformation which will bias the major surfaces toward their undeformed position.
