Rigid-Flexible technology is a proven and reliable technology that is especially used to solve space and flexibility problems..jpg)
A rigid-flex printed circuit board (PCB) is a combination of a flexible and a rigid circuit. The rigid areas of the circuit serve as the solid base on which the components are mounted, while the flexible areas connect the rigid parts, allowing the circuit to be positioned in various three-dimensional ways and thus take on shapes that would not be possible with a rigid board. Another advantage is the increased reliability and cost savings achieved by eliminating connectors and wiring between circuits.Rigid-flex circuits are manufactured using FR4 and polyimide. A typical example is a 6-layer circuit called 1F-5Ri, meaning a circuit with 1 flexible layer (polyimide) and 5 rigid layers (FR4).
