Flexible PCB Bending Area Design Rules: Engineering Bend Zones That Survive Real-World Motion
Flexible printed circuit boards create packaging possibilities that rigid boards cannot match. They fold into tight enclosures, replace bulky wire harnesses, and absorb motion in wearables, automotive hinges, medical devices, and industrial automation. At the same time, the bend area concentrates mechanical stress. If copper traces are routed incorrectly, coverlay is applied too aggressively, or […]
