Over the past year we have received a tremendous response to our ebook, The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to Flex and Rigid-Flex Fundamentals. In fact, to date, there have been over 3,000 downloads of this educational book. We hope that it has helped those whom have downloaded it, like yourself, to better understand flex technology.
This is the second installment of the Flex & Rigid Flex newsletter, a series we publish in order to focus on furthering our mission to provide the industry with all the information they need on that technology.
In this particular edition you will find several interesting articles including Flex Talk: Don’t Build Flex that Doesn’t Flex and Four Tips on Listening to Your PCB Suppliers. We hope you find these articles informative and helpful.
Your feedback is always important to us, so please reach out to me at [email protected] with any specific questions or suggestions for a future article.
Sincerely,
Anaya Vardya
CEO, American Standard Circuits
