FLEXTHERM allows to assemble electronic components to a flexible PCB substrate rather than the generic rigid PCB. Flexible circuits are used where the space limits the use of rigid circuit boards or when electronic designs require movable parts.
It can be delivered on single side or double side metal printed circuit board construction. Designed for:
- Conformable substrate
- Excellent for high temperature applications Extremely low thermal impedance
- V-0 / Halogen free / High MOT values
- Produced with RA copper to grant conformable properties
- Withstands Lead Free Soldering process
It is an ideal option to produce conformable MPCB’s which can be bent without compromising the initial dielectric strength between conductive layers (Al & Cu). FLEXTHERM is a high technology thermal insulated metal substrate for using in the production of conformable metal printed circuit boards.
Its low thermal impedance allows the dissipation of temperature from the heating elements of a PCB into FLEXTHERM’s metal core at an extremely efficient rate. The dielectric layer is a polyamide resin combined with a high thermal conductivity filler with an overall thickness of over 25 or 35 microns capable of standing with 2,000 V or 4,000 V dialectical strength respectively.
Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS), based aluminum clad with RA copper foil on one or both sides. It is designed for the reliable thermal dissipation of circuitry.
FLEXTHERM is ideal for conformable MPCB manufacturing and can be bent after MPCB production while maintaining the initial dielectric strength in between conductive layers (Al and Cu). Ideal for automotive, rear and interior lighting, and architectural lighting.
