What are Rigid Flex PCBs? Rigid flex printed circuit boards (PCBs) provide designers with one of the more unique packaging methods for electronic designs. Combining the component and routing density of hardboards with the flexibility of flexible circuits, rigid flex PCBs allow designers to [...]

What is PCB Depaneling? PCB (printed circuit board) depaneling, also called singulation, is the process of removing numerous smaller, individual PCBs from a larger multi-PCB panel produced during manufacturing. The depaneling process was created in order to increase throughput of PCB manufacturing lines as [...]

General Design Rules for Flexible PCBs When you begin to design your rigid flex PCB, there are a few rules you want to adhere to as best as possible: Try not to bend at the corners. When making a bend, keep the bend curved [...]

Why do you need controlled impedance for flex PCBs? In modern days, flex circuit boards have become smaller, faster, and more complicated. Flex boards are typically used in high-frequency applications such as RF communication, telecommunication, computing using signal frequencies above 100MHz, high-speed signal processing, [...]

What is charging connector flex pcb board？ A charging connector flex PCB board is a type of flex PCB that is specifically designed for use in charging connectors. It is a flexible circuit board that has a connector on one end and a charging [...]

What Is a CR2025 Battery? Isn’t it frustrating when you insert a button cell battery into a gadget only to get an error message? Don’t worry. You aren’t alone. Since several battery types look similar, most people can’t tell them apart. It’s also challenging [...]

Where to custom quick turn flexible PCB prototype Speed is an essential component of the rapid prototyping process. A custom quick turn PCB flex prototype is a common prototype manufacturing technique, and you can complete it in as little as one to three days. [...]

What is coverlay flex pcb？ Flexible PCB coverlay’s major function is to protect the circuitry on the flexible PCB. It acts as the solder resist or solder mask for flexible printed circuit boards. Conventional solder masks or solder resist having limited ductility or flexibility. [...]

Flex pcb connector types While a well-designed flexible circuit will eliminate many connectors, ultimately most flexible circuits need to connect to something. Probably the most common entity that a flex circuit connects to is a rigid printed circuit board, but cable harnesses, polyester membrane [...]

PCB Button Plating – what is it, when and why is it needed? First let’s discuss the basics when it comes to a typical rigid PCB. During the production process with a rigid PCB, we would image and etch our inner layer cores, laminate [...]
