    Abstract: Flexible circuits for routing signals of a device, such as a touch sensor panel of a touch sensitive device, are provided. The flexible circuit can include a first set of traces for routing a first set of lines and a second set of traces for routing a second set of lines. The first set of traces can couple together the ends of at least a portion of the first set of lines. Additionally, the first set of traces can be non-intersecting or non-overlapping with the second set of traces. The flexible circuit can have a T-shape configuration and can be incorporated within a touch sensitive device, display device, printed circuit board, or the like. The flexible circuit can be placed over another flexible circuit, and can extend onto the device.

    Abstract: Methods and devices for using liquid optically clear adhesives (LOCAs) are described. A method for detecting uncured LOCA between a first substrate and a second substrate is described. In addition, an improved method for curing a laminated stack up having LOCA between a first substrate and a second substrate is described. The method includes a pre-curing method involving variable exposure of the LOCA. In addition, an improved light emitting diode (LED) unit assembly for exposing a laminated stack up to ultraviolet (UV) light during a pre-curing process is described. A method for testing the LED unit assembly prior to a pre-curing process is described.

    Abstract: The described embodiments relate generally to electronic devices and more particularly to methods for forming mechanical and electrical connections between components within an electronic device. In one embodiment, an interconnect component such as a flex cable is attached to a substrate such as a printed circuit board. A plurality of apertures can be created in the interconnect component, passing through bonding pads located on one end of the interconnect component. The interconnect component can then be aligned with bonding pads on the substrate with the bonding pads on the interconnect component facing away from the substrate. A conductive compound can be injected into the apertures through the interconnect component, forming a mechanical and electrical connection between the bonding pads. In some embodiments, an adhesive layer can be used to further strengthen the bond between the interconnect component and the substrate.
