EMA Presents Webinar on Designing the Perfect Stackup for Flex
October 25, 2024 | EMA Design AutomationEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Join the experts at Newgrange Design and EMA for their upcoming webinar, Flex in Focus - Designing the Perfect Stackup for Flex, to make sure you set your next flex project up for success from the beginning.
Starting with a strong foundation is key to a successful PCB design build. In this session we will focus on the foundation for your flex PCB designs; the flex stackup. Learn how flex stackups differ from standard rigid PCB boards and what you need to consider when designing them.
The webinar will be held online on Thursday, November 7th, 2024 @ 2:00pm ET.
What You Will Learn:
- Anatomy of the flex stackup
- Why the stackup is so critical to flex design
- Flex specific material choices and selection
- How to construct your Flex stackup
- Working with your manufacturer to define your flex design
- Quick demo to see how your CAD tools can help craft the perfect stackup for Flex
Join special guests, Lauren Waslick, Newgrange Design and Shannon Henry, EMA Design Automation.
