Flexible Circuit Boards

Flexible printed circuit boards (Flex PCBs) are the ideal choice when you require PCBs that can be shaped into various configurations, offering unparalleled design flexibility. Named for their ability to conform to the shape of the electronic device rather than vice versa, Flex PCBs utilize a pliable base material that caters to the complexities of modern, compact appliances. This flexibility not only allows for lightweight and durable products but also enhances their suitability for applications ranging from wearable technology to medical equipment.

Benefits of flexible printed circuit boards

  • Flex PCBs, known for their small package size, seamlessly align with the trend of miniaturization, offering lighter weight compared to traditional boards.
  • These boards exhibit high tensile strength and perform well in harsh environments, making them ideal for applications with significant vibrations.
  • Flex PCBs experience lower stress and impact on solder joints than rigid PCBs, enhancing their durability and reliability.
  • Custom flexible circuit boards are prized for their high current carrying capacity and reliability, requiring fewer interconnects, connectors, and solder joints.
  • They are compatible with a wide range of components and connectors, contributing to their versatility and widespread use.
  • The streamlined design of Flex PCBs reduces material and packaging demands, minimizes assembly errors, and lowers parts replacement costs, resulting in significant cost savings.

FAQs

Flexible circuit boards are a combination of printed circuits with components which are positioned on a flexible substrate.

Using flex circuit boards eliminates or completely decreases cable cost, it is known to reduce assembly time, and produces a lighter end-product. They are also known for their high tensile strength and reliability.

Flex circuit boards weigh far less than their rigid counterparts. While the thinnest rigid board could weigh 500 microns, a typical flex board may be only 100 microns.

As a thumb rule, it is recommended to place parts where the flex has a stiffener!

A stiffener serves many functions:
  • To strengthen areas of the board
  • To support PCB components
  • To keep certain areas flat and stable
  • To constrain the flexible parts to specified areas.

Absolutely! Do let us know your bespoke needs for any kind of multilayer flexible PCBs and we will get back to you with a quote as soon as possible!

We provide single sided, double sided, multilayer, rigid-flex PCBs, copper flexible circuit boards, and more!
