What are Flex Boards? A flex circuit, also known as a flex board or flexible printed circuit board (FPCB), is a type of printed circuit board (PCB) made of flexible insulating material with thin conductive traces on one or both sides. The flexible substrate allows the board to bend and twist to fit into tight…

Introduction to Rigid Flex PCBs A rigid flex PCB combines rigid and flexible PCB substrates into a single circuit board. The rigid sections provide mechanical support and mounting points, while the flexible sections enable dynamic flexing, bending or folding of the board. Rigid flex PCBs enable more compact and portable device designs by conforming to…
