Flexible printed circuit boards are named for their ability to fit the circuitry to the electronic device or product, instead of building the device to fit the circuit board. These boards have a patterned printed circuitry and component arrangement, along with a malleable base material.
Benefits Flex PCBs
Flex circuit boards offer numerous benefits, including saving space, as their design needs only 10 percent of the space and weight of a wired circuit board assembly. This allows greater installation and packaging freedom, along with tighter bend capabilities. They require fewer interconnects, crimps, connectors, and solder joints, thus increasing reliability.
Flex circuit boards are compatible with almost any type of connector or component and work well with options such as ZIP connectors. They perform exceptionally well in extreme temperatures and offer superior resistance to radiation and chemicals. Additionally, they help reduce material and packaging requirements, lower parts replacement costs, and decrease assembly errors that could otherwise result in the need for repairs.
These benefits make flex circuit boards ideal for a wide range of applications in industries such as Military, Transportation, Medical, Consumer Electronics, Automotive, Aerospace, Communications, and Industrial.
