TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY: Avoiding Connectors and Flex to Install

TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY ?
Do you know this FR4 PCB with flexible bending points for installation?

If a PCB is to be given a three-dimensional shape after assembly, for example to fit it in an enclosure, then a FR4 PCB with bending points is a good choice. The bending element is a 100µm thin FR4 core with a particularly stretchable copper foil, which can be bent a few times at any angle and in any direction.

The advantages of the symmetrical structure of the 4-layer PCB are explained in the blog Avoiding connectors and Flex to Install ?
