Since you are designing flex layers into a circuit, it’s a safe bet that circuit is intended to bend. The key question is, ...

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 ...

Stratos Optical Technologies now offers increased packaging density as a custom manufacturing option for its optical flex circuit products (see figure). The new optical flex circuit design is called ...

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).

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 ...
