For reliability, designers must create flex circuits that are neither too thick nor bend too much. • Every flex circuit has a neutral-bend axis. • Smaller circuit thickness reduces the risk of damage ...

Flex PCBs have been a key enabler of modern high density electronics, but achieving this density requires thinner layers and finer lines. Conventional three-layer flex circuits comprised of copper, ...

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 ...

Multi-Fineline Electronix Inc. has made good on a promise to mix it up. The Anaheim-based maker of flexible circuit boards that go into cell phones, personal digital assistants and other handheld ...

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 ...

• A flexible printed circuit is as much a mechanical device as it is an electrical device. • The neutral bend axis may not be in the exact middle of the material stack. • The reliability of flexible ...

As if Tesla hasn't already shaken up the automotive industry enough, the electric automaker's new strides in flex circuit tech could change how EVs are built and potentially impact suppliers.

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).

Test is becoming increasingly complicated as new technologies such as flexible electronics begin playing mission-critical roles in applications where electronics have little or no history. Although ...

Molex Incorporated introduced its new High-Speed Low-Loss Flex Circuit Assemblies, made using DuPont™ Pyralux® TK flexible circuit material. July 22, 2015 Molex Inc. has introduced new High-Speed ...
