Flexible electronics of one kind or another have been around for more than 20 years. What most now call flexible printed circuits (FPCs) are branching out to rigid-flex designs as well as highly ...

Replacing the traditional wire complexity with Flexible printed circuits provide a unique medium for electric circuits. Flexible Circuit Technologies are produced by photolithographic technology. A ...

Building electronics in unconventional form factors with high packaging density is possible thanks to three-dimensional circuit designs using flex and rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs).

Flexible printed circuits are useful when the size and shape of your invention is integral to its overall design. You've encountered them before − in mobile phones, cameras, and other increasingly ...

In recent years, there has been an increased interest in bendable electronics. And to be fair, the idea of having a mini-computer that you can mold into your hands like play-dough does sound quite ...

Designing flexible electronics has long been constrained by the limits of two-dimensional printing. Now, researchers have introduced a novel method that “draws” rather than extrudes ink into air, ...

The FLEX Conference, held again this year in conjunction with SEMICON West 2023, provided numerous examples of continued developments in flexible, printed, and flexible hybrid electronics technologies ...

Flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) has spawned the development of novel packaging techniques to overcome the application limitations of the rigid boards, high-temperature solders, bulky component ...

Fabrication of a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) with an integrated micromirror. A) FPCB is attached to a glass substrate using SU-8 as temporary adhesive. B) 3D structures are 3D printed ...

Imagine wearable health sensors, smart packaging, flexible displays, or disposable IoT controllers all manufactured like printed newspapers. The same technology could underpin communication circuits, ...
