In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...

It’s getting harder to fit everything in the box; it’s also getting more costly. One solution promising to help designers meet the size constraint head on is rigid-flex PCB technology, but most design ...

Expensive and complicated discrete interconnection cables can reduce a design’s reliability, increase design cost and increase over all design size. Fortunately there is an alternative in the form of ...

Flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) aren’t much different than rigid boards during the design phase, except that the designer must account for the mechanical complexity associated with flex ...

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 ...

PCBs are rigid plates to connect electronic circuitry while the most common basic characteristic of the human body is its flexibility. Mixing the two in wearable medical devices will need rigid-flex ...

In the last blog on rigid-flex PCBs, I talked about the fabrication processes typically used by board houses. It’s important to understand the steps required to build up a rigid-flex or flex circuit ...
