1. An assembly of electrically connected printed circuit boards, comprising:

  • a first printed circuit board including a substrate and an electrically conductive layer bonded to the substrate with an insulating adhesive, the conductive layer having a first plurality of solder covered electrically conductive leads disposed on the substrate with adhesive present between the first plurality of electrically conductive leads;

    a second printed circuit board including a substrate and an electrically conductive layer bonded to the substrate with an insulating adhesive, the conductive layer bonded to the substrate with an insulating adhesive, the conductive layer having a second plurality of solder covered electrically conductive leads disposed on the substrate with adhesive present between the second plurality of electrically conductive leads; and

    wherein inductive heat applied to the solder covered leads causes the first plurality of leads to be electrically and mechanically connected to the second plurality of leads, and an adhesive bond is formed between the adhesive between the first plurality of leads and the adhesive between the second plurality of leads thereby insulating the electrically connected leads from one another.
