PCB flexibles (PCB flexibles)

Flexible printed circuit boards (FPCs) are highly reliable and extremely flexible, made with polyimide or polyester film as the substrate. They are characterized by high wiring density, light weight, thinness, and good bending properties. FPCs are the only solution to meet the miniaturization and mobility requirements of electronic products. They can be freely bent, rolled, and folded, withstand millions of dynamic bends without damaging the wires, and can be arranged arbitrarily according to spatial layout requirements, moving and stretching freely in three-dimensional space, thereby achieving integration of component assembly and wire connection. FPCs can significantly reduce the size and weight of electronic products, meeting the needs of electronic products as they develop towards higher density, miniaturization, and higher reliability. Therefore, FPCs are widely used in aerospace, military, mobile communications, laptops, computer peripherals, PDAs, digital cameras, and other fields.

Circuits imprimés flexibles (FPC) sont principalement classés par structure en fonction du nombre de couches conductrices et de la méthode de liaison entre le substrat et la feuille de cuivre.

Classification par nombre de couches conductrices : FPCs can be classified as single-layer, double-layer, or multi-layer boards. Single-layer boards have only one conductor, a simple structure, and are suitable for low-cost, simple circuits; double-layer boards have two conductors, increasing wiring density, and are suitable for medium-complexity circuits; multi-layer boards achieve multiple conductors through lamination technology and are often used in high-density, high-performance applications, such as power and ground layer designs.

Classification par méthode de liaison entre le substrat et la feuille de cuivre: FPCs are divided into adhesive-bonded flexible boards and adhesive-free flexible boards. Adhesive-bonded PCBs use adhesive to bond copper foil to a substrate (such as polyimide), resulting in lower cost but slightly less flexibility. Adhesive-free PCBs, on the other hand, are bonded directly via a thermoforming process, offering greater flexibility, bonding strength, and pad flatness, making them suitable for high-reliability applications such as COF packaging.

The demand for flexible PCBs is increasing across all business segments, with especially strong demand from the medical, defense, and industrial markets. UMEC collaborates with several certified factories that meet our technical and order-volume requirements (high-mix, low-batch) to meet the diverse production needs of our customers.
