A connector layout for arranging a plurality of parallel electrical
connectors between two electronic devices. In one device, each connector
has a strip connected to a bump pad. The bump pad is superimposed on and
electrically connected to a bump pad on the other device. Each strip has
a certain required strip width and each bump pad has a certain required
pad width. The connectors are grouped into a group of three or more.
Within each group, a strip is connected to a bump pad along one side edge
thereof, and the bump pads are offset in two directions such that after
the bump pads are superimposed, the pattern of the connected connectors
in each group of connectors resembles a plurality of zigzag paths offset
to maintain a constant gap between two strips. As such, the gap between
two connectors can be minimized.
