Rigid-Flex can have many benefits, and many designers are at least considering it today
who previously did not have to. More PCB designers are facing higher pressures to
build ever more densely populated electronics, and with that comes additional pressure
to reduce costs and time in manufacturing. Well, this is really nothing new of course.
It’s just that the scope of these pressures that the engineer and PCB designer have to
respond to is continuously broadening. Rigid-Flex PCB technology offers a solution that
is viable for many product designs facing these challenges.
