As the circuit densities of modern electronic systems continue to increase dramatically, so too has the popularity of flexible printed circuit boards. With their substrates of polyamides like Kapton or Mylar that enable bending and twisting, this new breed of circuitry affords designers the ability to work with much more surface area within much smaller spaces. Here is the most complete and cohesive guide to this burgeoning field yet published. A one-stop resource for engineers who need practical information on how to successfully design and assemble flexible circuitry, it includes detailed discussion of the relationship between design variations and overall cost.

The Baker Vertical Continuous Plater (VCP) is equipped with high speed electrolytic plating cells designed for today's new generation HDI printed circuit board (PCB) production. This is made possible through a selective plating and subsequent soft/differential etching process, removing only the thin seeded layer, and therefore eliminating the need for a metallic etching mask and the use of conventional bulk metal etching chemistry. This product is a new core competence offering, designed to handle flexible printed circuits (FPCs) in sheet form in a vertical orientation. Features include a unique electrolytic technology that minimizes the formation of planar surface copper nodules, a major contributor in FPC fabrication yield.
