I-Connect007 Survey Shows Rising Use of Flex and Rigid-Flex

Reading time ( words)

In our recent survey on flex and rigid-flex circuits, majority or 76% of the respondents are currently using flex, rigid-flex and printed electronics in their manufacturing.

Of the 24% who answered no, a strong majority, 70%, are planning to use rigid-flex circuits in the future; 60% said they will use flex circuits; while 30% are also planing to use printed electronics.
