HARTING has developed a component carrier that can be used directly with electronic components eliminating manual assembly and replacing flexible PCBs. Increasing precision and reducing assembly costs ...

The now-humble PCB was revolutionary when it came along, and the whole ecosystem that evolved around it has been a game changer in electronic design. But the PCB is just so… flat. Planar.

Designers are familiar with rigid print circuit boards (PCBs) typified by the classic FR4 substrate as well as more advanced substrates which are compatible with multi-gigahertz applications. It’s ...

The mechanical fixation of these circuit boards is highly complex. Harting has developed a new product based on 3D-MID technology capable of replacing flexible circuit boards. At the MID process, on ...

Boise State University researchers have unveiled a cutting-edge approach to manufacturing flexible hybrid circuits - reducing costs, waste, and environmental impact. Their work leverages the ...

Expensive and complicated discrete interconnection cables can reduce a design’s reliability, increase design cost and increase over all design size. Fortunately there is an alternative in the form of ...

Flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) aren’t much different than rigid boards during the design phase, except that the designer must account for the mechanical complexity associated with flex ...

Flexible PCB maker Flexium Interconnect, in view of the fast-growing smart mobile devices, looks to large demand for flexible PCBs used in high-frequency data communication, and expects the demand to ...
