What is A Rigid-Flex PCB?
Conventionally, PCBs were nothing more than hard boards with holes to anchor and sold components. These were the forefathers of what we now call a rigid PCB. Now, circuits have gotten way more comp...
Rigid-Flex PCB Manufacturing Process
Rigid-Flex PCB manufacturing and designing is no longer a novelty in the world of PCB. Rigid-Flex PCBs have been in play for decades now. But that doesn’t mean the evolution and improvement of the ...
Price Considerations for Flexible Circuit Design
Flex circuit are becoming increasingly popular. They are light, mechanically flexible, and allows for 3D designing. This makes up for the design complexity and price considerations they come with. ...
HDI PCB Stack Up
As the need for high density and highly reliable PCBs increases, High-Density Integration (HDI) PCBs become more and more popular. It's one of the best ways to pack a lot of components and a higher...
What is Flexible Circuit Technology?
Flexible circuit technology. It is one of the few technologies to have such a self-explanatory name. Flexible circuit technology was a revolutionary step in the world of PCBs, the backbone of elect...
What is Stiffener in a Flex PCB?
A flex PCB is electrically and mechanically very different from a rigid PCB. There are cases where a flex PCB is imperative, and in some designs, a rigid PCB will do just fine. For more advanced us...
Rogers 4350B vs. Panasonic Megtron 6
PCBs are evolving with the continually increasing demands of the electronics and telecom market. We are sitting on the eve of widespread deployment of 5G wireless technology across the globe. This ...
Rigid-Flex PCB Board Stack-up
Rigid-Flex pcb is a vital technology in a world where devices are getting smaller and lighter by the day, without compromising on functionality and reliability. How efficient a Rigid-Flex is in red...
MEGTRON 6 - High Speed, Low Loss, Multi-layer PCB Material
Deciding on the right laminate material for a PCB is very important. For most rigid and rigid-flex laminates, you can go with the age-old option of FR-4 material. It's cheap, mechanically stable, a...
Flex PCB EMI Shielding Design
Designing a Flex PCB is as much a mechanical task as it is an electrical one. And balancing the two can sometimes become challenging. Another element of Flex designing that might crop up (especiall...
Any layer HDI PCB – What it is and how it works
Any Layer HDI, sometimes also called an ELIC – Every Layer Interconnect HDI, is a PCB where each layer is a microvia-based HDI layer, and all the connections between the layers are made using coppe...
Types of HDI PCB Stackup
High-Density Interconnect (HDI) circuits are quickly replacing conventional PCB designing and fabrication techniques. Most compact and sophisticated electronic devices would not have been pos...
