Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An electrical interconnect is comprised of a woven mesh in which an array of parallel wires is retained in spaced relation by a transverse array of nonconducting strands the, mesh being enclosed or encased within a resilient matrix. The conductive wires are on a close pitch to yield greater current carrying capacity and achieve a lower more stable resistance. With this construction a great number of wires are in contact with each contact pad to yield greater current carrying capacity and corresponding lower resistance. The closer pitch wires also provide greater redundancy of contact points. This structure can be custom configured in as many layers or in a variety of shapes as is desirable …

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 4, 1998 and granted October 1, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 4, 2018.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 4, 2020.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
