Flexible circuit design is fast becoming a preferred electronic circuit packaging practice that is used to create such products as mobile flip-phones or laptop computers. With marketing teams striving ...

The inherent physical delicacy of flex circuits poses some key manufacturing challenges that can negatively affect yield and potentially impact a design’s viability. These challenges are being ...

First, design engineers must understand how the various types of flexible circuits work, their design capabilities, applications, and limits.

Download this article in PDF format. Flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) aren’t much different than rigid boards during the design phase, except that the designer must account for the ...

Flexible printed circuits (FPCs) are making a profound impact on electronic design, ushering in smaller, lighter, and increasingly functional devices that would otherwise be difficult, if not ...

The Flex Circuits Design Kit gives information on how to start using flexible circuits in designs.

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).

Here’s your chance to break out of Flatland and explore the third dimension of circuit design with our brand new Flexible PCB Contest. We’ve teamed up with Digi-Key for this contest.

Ruminating Rigid-Flex – Dos and Don’ts of Flex Circuit Circuit Design (Part 3) In the last blog on rigid-flex PCBs, I talked about the fabrication processes typically used by board houses. It’s ...
