One of the materials used in making flexible PCBs, polyimide, has fallen in short supply due to expanding flexible PCB applications, according to sources at Taiwan flexible PCB material makers. The ...

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, ...

PCBs are solid and somewhat rigid but some parts or in some instances the PCB itself is flexible. The Flexible PCB is composed of a conductor, insulator and a covering or lamination. Lamination is ...

This article is part of the TechXchange: PCB Tools and Technology. Many manufacturers still use the standard FR-4 material for their rigid boards because FR-4 materials are cost-efficient and highly ...

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).

Most every device and electronic piece of equipment is outfitted with a printed circuit board (PCB), including smartphones, TVs, appliances, and more. You know the composite. The boards are laminated ...

Polyimide resins are known for their thermal stability, durability, and resistance to a range of solvents and chemicals. Combined with their excellent dielectric properties, these polymers possess ...

If you think polyimide-based flexible PCBs are cool, wait until you get a load of what polymerized liquid metal networks can do. Seems like [CNLohr] has some pretty cool friends, and he recently spent ...
