Tech-Etch FAQ PDF on flexible circuits answers questions about manufacturing and designing circuits. What is a flexible printed circuit? What finishes are available for flex circuits? What are the benefits of flexible circuits over printed circuit boards? Can surface mount components be added to flexible circuits? What are the main markets and uses for high reliability flex circuits? Download this FAQ on Flexible Printed Circuits to get the answers to these questions and more. Tech-Etch manufactures high-reliability flexible printed circuits on polyimide substrates using advanced manufacturing processes to create circuits for today’s sophisticated electronic applications. Special processes include the ability to selectively plate a single circuit with two different finishes, contoured circuits with variable metal thickness, semi-additive and subtractive techniques to manufacture trace patterns, BGA pad arrays, and open window or cantilevered contact leads. Surface mount technology process can accommodate package sizes down to 0201 and .4mm pitch. Tech-Etch manufactures flex circuits using both adhesive based and adhesiveless raw materials.
