An area-array integrated circuit package assembly are provided with a
plurality of electrically conductive connectors attached to the package
I.O. pads, that are used to connect the package to a printed circuit card
or other component. The connectors comprise at least two parallel
conductors flexing together in the same direction, electrically insulated
from each other for a portion of their length between the package and
printed circuit card to provide for reduced interconnection inductance.
The connection with the component contact pads can be achieved by
mechanically pressing the package and circuit card together or with the
use of bonding material.
