Description:
Flexible circuit board (FPC), is composed of CU (Copper foil) (E.D.) and PI (Kapton, Polyimide) (polyimide film), which has advantages of space-saving, lightweight, and good flexibility. Generally, PI is used as the base material. This PCB can be bent and flexed at will, which is used for the connection of small parts that need to be repeatedly flexed.
Application:
1. Mobile Phone: Light weight and thin thickness make it a good choice for saving the product volume, and it can easily connect the battery, microphone, and buttons.
2. Computer and LCD screen: The integrated circuit configuration of flexible circuit board and thin thickness is able to convert digital signals into images and display them through LCD screen;
3. CD Walkman: The three-dimension assembly characteristics and thin thickness of flexible circuit board can turn the huge CD into a small product for carrying;
4. Disk drive: No matter hard disk or floppy disk, it relies on the high flexibility of FPC and 0.1mm ultra-thin thickness to complete fast data reading for PC or NOTEBOOK;
5. HDD (hard disk drive): The components of HDD (hard disk drive) mounting circuit and packaging board.
Advantages:
1. Flexible
An obvious advantage of flexible PCB is that it can be more convenient to route and connect in 3D space, and can also be curled or folded up for use. As long as it is curled within the allowable radius of curvature, it can withstand thousands to tens of thousands of times of use without damage.
2. Small Volume
In the assembly and connection of components, the conductor section of the flexible PCB is thin and flat compared with the wire cable, which reduces the wire size and can be formed along the shell, making the structure of the equipment more compact and reasonable, and reducing the assembly volume. Compared with rigid PCB, the space can be saved by 60~90%.
3. Light Weight
In the same volume, the weight of PCB flexible board can be reduced by about 70% compared with that of wire and cable under the same current capacity, and by about 90% compared with that of rigid PCB.
4. Consistency of assembly
The PCB soft board is used for installation and connection to eliminate the error in wiring with wires and cables. As long as the processing drawings are checked and passed, all the winding circuits produced in the future are the same. Misconnection will not occur when installing the connecting wire.
5. Reliable
When the PCB soft board is used for connection, because it can be wired on the X, Y and Z planes, the transfer interconnection is reduced, the reliability of the whole system is increased, and the inspection of faults is convenient.
