If they had flexible integrated circuits readily at hand, electronics manufacturers could start producing new devices including smart medical implants and flexible displays. Now researchers have ...

A pattern of conductors created on a bendable film, which acts as an insulating (dielectric) base material. The top is coated with a dielectric cover layer. A flexible circuit is a pliable counterpart ...

• A flexible printed circuit is as much a mechanical device as it is an electrical device. • The neutral bend axis may not be in the exact middle of the material stack. • The reliability of flexible ...

For the mobile market, some PCB assemblies have been converted to flex circuit assemblies, in part because flex circuit assemblies can be twisted or bent to meet the needs of the application.

With the introduction of Pyralux High Temperature (HT) flexible circuit material systems, flexible circuits will make their debut in high-temperature applications. It could lead to major changes for ...

Flexible electronics and circuits are redefining possibilities in diverse industries, offering new design freedom and intelligence across devices and environments. As global sectors pursue smarter, ...

While at this year’s Space Tech Expo in Pasadena, CA last month, I had the pleasure to visit with Pioneer Circuits, Inc. who have done some amazing work with flexible circuitry in deep space. They are ...

Think sensors galore and tinier, longer-lasting devices. A self-powered pacemaker might even be possible. You say you want a revolution in medical devices? Then watch out, because recent breakthroughs ...

Test is becoming increasingly complicated as new technologies such as flexible electronics begin playing mission-critical roles in applications where electronics have little or no history. Although ...

Though threading is a old concept in computer science, and fabric computing has been a term for about thirty years, the terminology has so far been more metaphorical than strictly descriptive. [Cedric ...
