An implantable connector for connecting an electronics package and a neural interface is described. The connection between the electronics package and the neural interface is made by way of a set of compressible contacts (e.g., springs) that physical contact a set of corresponding exposed bond pads. The compressible contacts are held in compression with the exposed bond pads using a mechanical coupler. The compressible contacts are physically separated and electrically isolated from each other by way of a compressible gasket. The compressible gasket is also held in compression using the mechanical coupler.
