Words of Advice: Flex Design and Manufacturing Training
February 7, 2019 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
In a recent survey, we asked the following question: Where do your technologists acquire training or expertise regarding flexible circuits? Here are just a few of the answers, edited slightly for clarity.
- We have 30 designers and maybe 1/3 of them have flex design experience. We don't have structured training for flex, but designers do share with other team mates to help.
- We work closely with our vendors to design the system.
- Training on the job.
- Learning by asking other staff members.
- Flex manufacturers generally help in the layer stack-up definition, and in design rules optimization.
