1. An electronic system, comprising:
a substrate comprising one or more of stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium;
an electrically conductive bonding tape, the electrically conductive bonding tape comprising:
an electrically conductive self-supporting copper foil layer electrically conductive in each of three mutually orthogonal directions and comprising electrically conductive opposing first and second major surfaces, the self-supporting copper foil layer having an average thickness of greater than about 4 microns;
an electrically conductive second layer coated on the first major surface of the self-supporting copper foil layer and comprising at least 70% by weight of nickel, the second layer having an average thickness of greater than about 0.03 microns and an exposed major surface facing away from the first major surface of the self-supporting copper foil layer;
an electrically conductive adhesive third layer bonded to the second major surface of the self-supporting copper foil layer opposite the second layer, the adhesive third layer electrically conductive in at least one of the three mutually orthogonal directions and comprising a plurality of electrically conductive elements dispersed in a substantially electrically insulative material, at least some of the electrically conductive elements physically contacting the second major surface of the self-supporting copper foil layer, the electrically conductive elements of the adhesive third layer arranged such that a conductivity of the adhesive third layer measured in an in-plane direction of the adhesive third layer is greater than a conductivity of the adhesive third layer measured through a thickness direction of the adhesive third layer substantially orthogonal to the in-plane direction; and
an electrically conductive fourth layer sandwiched between, and bonded to, the electrically conductive adhesive third layer and an electrically conductive adhesive fifth layer, the adhesive fifth layer electrically conductive in at least one of the three mutually orthogonal directions and comprising a plurality of second electrically conductive elements dispersed in a substantially electrically insulative material, at least some of the electrically conductive elements of the fifth layer physically contacting the fourth layer;
the electrically conductive bonding tape disposed on the substrate with the adhesive fifth layer bonding to the substrate; and
an electrically conductive resilient component resiliently pressed against, and making physical contact with, the exposed major surface of the second layer.
