Flex in Focus: Designing the Perfect Stackup for Flex

Starting with a strong foundation is key to a successful PCB design build, especially in flex and rigid-flex designs. 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 PCBs and what you need to consider when designing them. Join the experts from Newgrange Design and EMA to make sure you set your next flex project up for success from the beginning. 

What You Will Learn from the Flex in Focus: Designing the Perfect Stackup for Flex On-Demand Webinar:

  • 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

Check out the other webinar in this series, Flex in Focus: Designer’s Guide to Flex PCBs, and learn more about how OrCAD X can accelerate your flex PCB designs here.
