Options extend to surface finish, line width and spacing, and hole size.
The range of flexible PCBs in China consists of single-and double-sided, and multilayer flexible PCBs.
Units have gold- or tin-plated, ENIG, immersion tin or OSP surface finish. In minimum line width and spacing, there are models with 1.4, 1.6, 2, 2.5, 3 and 4mil, with 2 and 3mil the most common. These have holes as small as 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25 or 0.3mm.
The main materials used in the production of flexible PCBs are 2 or 3-layer FCCLs, overlays, bonding sheets and stiffener.
Makers source the manufacturing inputs from Taiwan providers, including Taiflex, ThinFlex, AEM and Microcosm, and local companies Shengyi and Grace. On request, they use FCCLs from Japan companies such as Arisawa, Nippon Steel and Nitto Denko.
Despite rising labor cost, prices of flexible PCBs are expected to remain steady due to intense competition in the sector.
Here is a selection of flexible PCBs from mainland China:
