FPC has many benefits, including:
• save space. Flexible PCB designs require only about 10% of the space and weight of ordinary circuit board components, providing greater freedom of installation and packaging. The inherent flexibility also allows for more compact bending capabilities.
• enhancements. Flexible printed circuit boards are compatible with almost any type of connector or component and can be used with options such as ZIP connectors. They also perform well at extreme temperatures and have excellent radiation and chemical resistance.
• highest reliability. Flexible printed circuit boards require fewer interconnections, which in turn require fewer contact presses, connectors, and solder joints. In short, flexible PCB boards do not contain many potential fault sources, thus increasing their reliability.
• cost savings. The cost savings of flexible PCB include reduced material and packaging requirements, lower component replacement costs and assembly errors that may require maintenance.
