The invention proposes a process for producing electrical contact connections
for at least one component which is integrated in a substrate material, the substrate
material having a first surface region, and at least one terminal contact being
arranged at least partially in the first surface region for each component, which
is distinguished in particular by application of a covering to the first surface
region and production of at least one contact passage which, in the substrate material,
runs transversely with respect to the first surface region, in which process, in
order to form at least one contact location in a second surface region which is
to be provided, at least one electrical contact connection from the contact location
to at least one of the terminal contacts is produced via the respective contact
passages. Very advantageously, it is in this way possible for a contact location
to be produced on the to the terminal contact [sic] and therefore a contact location
which is electrically connected to the terminal contact can be produced on that
side of the substrate material which is remote from the active surface, it being
possible to dispense both with trenches which run along the substrate material
and with a lateral contact which leads around the component in accordance with
the prior art.
