As the name suggests, a flexible printed circuit is a pattern of conductors printed onto a flexible insulating film. Rigid-flex is the name given to a printed circuit that is a combination of both ...

Most every device and electronic piece of equipment is outfitted with a printed circuit board (PCB), including smartphones, TVs, appliances, and more. You know the composite. The boards are laminated ...

For the mobile market, some PCB assemblies have been converted to flex circuit assemblies, in part because flex circuit assemblies can be twisted or bent to meet the needs of the application.

Building electronics in unconventional form factors with high packaging density is possible thanks to three-dimensional circuit designs using flex and rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs).

A pattern of conductors created on a bendable film, which acts as an insulating (dielectric) base material. The top is coated with a dielectric cover layer. A flexible circuit is a pliable counterpart ...

If you think polyimide-based flexible PCBs are cool, wait until you get a load of what polymerized liquid metal networks can do. Seems like [CNLohr] has some pretty cool friends, and he recently spent ...

The now-humble PCB was revolutionary when it came along, and the whole ecosystem that evolved around it has been a game changer in electronic design. But the PCB is just so… flat. Planar.

With the introduction of Pyralux High Temperature (HT) flexible circuit material systems, flexible circuits will make their debut in high-temperature applications. It could lead to major changes for ...

Will Guinness Book of Records consider a “longest multilayer flexible printed circuit” entry? This unique 85-foot-long FPC, designed for a UAV, provides benefits in weight, cost, assembly time, and ...

HARTING has developed a component carrier that can be used directly with electronic components eliminating manual assembly and replacing flexible PCBs. Increasing precision and reducing assembly costs ...
