Flex-rigid

Explore the role of rigid-flex pcbs in aerospace & defense prototypes, highlighting their advantages and best design practices.

Learn what rigid PCBs are, where they are used, and how they are designed and manufactured. This guide explains rigid PCB materials, applications, stackup design, IPC standards, and fabrication processes.

The circuit board has been with us for a very long time at this point. It’s tempting to think that because they so closely resemble the generations that came before, today’s circuit boards are not all that different from what they once were. However, from the materials available to heat resistance, from transfer rates to size, circuit boards have evolved a great deal over time.
