Happy’s Tech Talk #29: Bend-to-Install Semi-flex FR-4
Mentor Hosts Design Tool for Rigid-Flex Circuits Webinar
August 20, 2020 | Mentor, a Siemens businessEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
“What Technology Should Your PCB Tool Have To Design Rigid-flex Circuits Properly?” is the topic for a webinar hosted by Mentor, A Siemens Business, from 2 to 3 p.m. EDT, Tuesday, Aug. 25.
Today, electronic design companies are meeting consumer form-factor demands and ensure high reliability and flexibility in design options for products using flex/rigid-flex circuits. Designing these rigid-flex PCB’s requires a design tool with advanced technologies distinctly unique to flex/rigid-flex design. From flex/rigid-flex centric operations and capabilities that understand the unique structures, constraints, plane management, materials, stack-ups, and beyond, PADS Professional has the features and operations necessary to support flex/rigid-flex design that other tools don’t.
Presenters are Brent Klingforth, a technical marketing engineer specializing in schematic, PCB and manufacturing products; and John McMillan, technical marketing engineering manager.
You will learn:
- Requirements for Flex design
- Where arced and rounded structures are required
- How to design a proper stack-up
- Intelligent overlapping flex regions
- Automation specific to Flex design
- Proper design technique for flexible circuits
- How to incorporate Flex and Rigid-Flex designs into your product
- Automated features allowing you to dramatically reduce design time
