Advantages and Disadvantages of Flexible PCB

Compared with ordinary PCB (Rigid board), wire or cable, flexible PCB board has the following advantages:

• Flexible, can meet three-dimensional and dynamic needs
• Thin thickness, small size, light weight
• Low processing cost and easy assembly

In particular, other advantages over ordinary cables or shielded cables are:

• High consistency of mechanical characteristics and electrical characteristics (compared to cables)
• High density
• Good impedance control ability
• Fewer connection points

And its disadvantages are:

1. Difficult to repair
2. Need extra support
3. Poor impedance consistency
4. Dimensional stability is not good enough (relative to rigid PCB board)
