What is a Rigid Flex PCB?
Printed Circuits Rigid Flex PCBA rigid flex printed circuit board
(PCB) is a hybrid circuit board design that integrates elements
from both hardboard and flexible circuits. Rigid flex PCBs are
rigid at some points on the board and flexible at others. Because
of this, rigid flex circuits can be folded or continuously flexed
while maintaining the shape of areas that need extra support. The
circuits are typically multi-layered and are comprised of flexible
circuit substrates joined with rigid boards. The flexible layers
are buried internally and completely penetrate the rigid sections
of the PCB.
One of the key benefits of a rigid flex PCB is its slim profile. The standard dielectric in flexible circuits is .001 – .002”, making it a great choice for ultra thin—and ultra light—packaging needs. Adhesiveless laminates, HDI, and thin copper layers make it ideal for fine line technology, giving you the smallest, thinnest, and lightest solution for your circuit designs.
The proper application of Rigid-Flex circuit boards offers optimum solutions for difficult, limited space conditions. This technology offers the possibility of a secure connection of device components with the assurance of polarity and contact stability, as well as a reduction in plug and connector components.
Additional advantages of Rigid-Flex circuit boards are dynamic and mechanical stability, the resulting 3-dimensional freedom of design, simplified installation, space savings, and maintenance of uniform electrical characteristics.
Use of Rigid-Flex circuit boards can reduce the total cost of the final product.
A Rigid-Flex PCB is a hybrid board that consists of a combination of rigid and flexible printed circuit boards. These boards are designed by combining flexible circuit boards with one or more rigid boards.
The flexible part of the board is usually used for providing interconnections between rigid boards, which allows narrow conductor lines which take up less space making the boards smaller. Using flexible PCBs for interconnections also eliminates the need for connectors, which are bulky and heavy making rigid-flex printed circuit boards much lighter. Interconnections using flexible PCBs over connectors also provide lower losses and accommodate controlled impedance and eliminate connection problems such as cold joints.
Another major advantage of Rigid-Flex boards is the use of different substrate materials in different sections on the board. Some sections of the board might require high performance substrates which are expensive while others sections might not could use a standard FR-4 substrate. This flexibility in terms of substrate selection can optimize the performance and cost of Rigid-Flex PCBs.
Designers often use Rigid-Flex PCBs as they provide a lot of design flexibility. These boards are also more cost effective than flexible PCB boards.
