Flexible PCB technology, also known as FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit), continues to develop and is used in major electronics sectors such as consumer electronics, automotive, electronic medical devices, wearables, telecommunications and aerospace. The introduction of flexible PCBs has revolutionized conventional electrical interconnect technology, which was traditionally used to connect multiple parts of the same circuit or multiple electronic devices
Proper packaging plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe delivery of PCBs, particularly in competitive markets where quality and presentation are key factors. Though packaging may not generate direct added value, it impacts customer satisfaction and reflects professionalism, particularly for high-precision products like PCBs.
As the demand for even more compact electronics grows, so does the need for ultra-thin flex PCBs. PCBs are essential to the development of compact electronics for mobile, implantable and other small devices.
A flex PCB is essentially the same thing as a non-flex board except the flexible PCB uses a flexible base material to make its circuit connections. This is most helpful for products that will likely not be stationary devices.
