Flexible Circuit Solutions
Flexible circuits can be constructed to suit general electrical compononent innerconnect needs or can be custom constructed to suit your specific product needs. Flex Circuits, Inc. has the flexible circuit construct capabilities you require
Single or Double Sided Circuitry
Single-Sided Flexible Circuits
These flexible circuits have the base layer (polyimide) and a single copper conductor. Fabrication specs can be modified or tailored to your requirements. Single-sided flexible circuits maintain a small profile and great conformability so are excellent for installations or in very small spaces. If you want to optimize your space, a single-sided flexible circuit could be your answer.
Double-Sided Flexible Circuits
Double-sided flexible circuits have a different structure, making them more rigid and for use in applications where a single-sided flexible circuits design does not provide the necessary circuit density and layout. The double-sided flexible circuit features the base layer as a core between two adhered copper conducters.
Both of these circuits can be constructed to your specs with various materials and finishes.
