Introduction Flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to bend and flex to fit within tight spaces. Choosing the right thickness is critical when designing a flexible PCB, as the thickness impacts the circuit’s durability, flexibility, and electrical performance. This article […]
Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in nearly all modern electronic devices. As electronics become smaller and more complex, there is a growing need for PCBs that are compact and can flex to fit within tight spaces. This is where multilayer flex PCBs come in. Multilayer flex PCBs […]
Introduction to Flex Circuits A flex circuit, also known as a flex PCB or flexible printed circuit board, is a type of circuitry made from thin, flexible materials like polyimide. The conductive traces are printed or bonded onto the flexible substrate using materials like copper foil. Flex circuits can be […]

What is a Flex PCB? A flexible printed circuit board (flex PCB) is a type of printed circuit board that can bend and flex. Flex PCBs are made from flexible materials like polyimide instead of rigid materials like FR-4. This allows the PCB to bend and move dynamically in tight […]
Introduction to Flex Circuits Flexible printed circuits (FPCs), also known as flex circuits, are made from flexible polymer substrates that have conductive circuits printed or bonded onto them. The circuits can bend, twist, and flex during use without losing electrical connectivity. This makes flex circuits ideal for applications where flexibility, […]

Introduction Flex printed circuit boards (flex PCBs) have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to bend and flex to fit into tight spaces. However, this flexibility comes at a cost – without proper support, flex PCBs can be prone to damage during use. This is where […]
Introduction Flexible printed circuit boards (flex PCBs or flex circuits) are a type of PCB that can bend and flex. They are made from flexible insulating substrate materials like polyimide or PET instead of traditional rigid FR-4. Flex PCBs are extremely useful when designing electronics that need to move dynamically […]
Introduction Flexible printed circuit boards (flex PCBs or flex circuits) are a type of PCB that incorporate flexible dielectric materials such as polyimide or polyester. This allows the circuit board to bend and flex while still maintaining electrical connectivity. Flex PCBs have many advantages over traditional rigid PCBs including: Some […]
Rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs) combine rigid and flexible circuitry into a single, integrated assembly. They provide solutions for complex and space-constrained electronics by enabling three-dimensional routing and embedding components. However, the unique benefits of rigid-flex come at a cost. This article will take an in-depth look at the factors […]
