Dual Layer Flexible PCB Built on Polyimide With Immersion Gold and
Yellow Mask
(FPC’s are custom-made products, the picture and parameters shown
are just for reference)
General description
This is a type of flexible printed circuit for the application of
analog device. It’s a 2 layer board at 0.15mm thick. The base
laminate is from ITEQ, It's fabricated per IPC 6012 Class 2 using
supplied Gerber data. Immersion gold is applied on the pads.
Stiffener is applied on the connector part.

Stiffener
In many applications where there are components soldered, the
flexible boards require external stiffeners (Stiffener, also known
as the reinforcing board) for external support. The stiffener
materials are PI or Polyester film, glass fiber, polymer materials,
steel foil, aluminum shim and so on.
(1)PI or Polyester
PI and polyester films are commonly used stiffener materials for
flexible circuit board. The commonly used thickness is 125μm
(5mil), some hardness can be obtained.
(2)Glass fibers
Glass fibers (such as FR-4), which are also commonly used materials
for stiffeners. The fiber glass stiffener has a higher hardness
than that of PI or Polyester, used where the requirements of
harness is higher. The thickness range is typically 125μm (5mil) to
3.175mm (125mils). However, its processing is relatively difficult
than PI, and may not be a standing material for some FPC factories.
(3)Polymer
Polymer, such as plastic, etc. is also used as stiffeners.
Its water absorption is low, with high pressure and high
temperature resistance.
(4)Steel foil, aluminum shim
The support hardness of steel foil, aluminum shim is high, the heat
can also be dissipated. The hardness or heat dissipation in the
design is the main concern.
