Close-up of part of a flexible circuit,a special type of printed electronic circuit that can be shaped & moulded according to requirement. Made of a polyester (plastic) laminate,flexible circuits are typically used in circumstances where weight,space-saving or the nature of a component makes the use of the normal rigid printed circuit board impossible - in the nose-cone of a missile,for instance. The first flexible circuits directly replaced complex wiring looms that took a long time to connect. Like a rigid circuit board,however,a flexible circuit serves to connect a number of electronic components | |
