Significant characteristics of the medical FPC

Medical devices and wearable device of a main trend is miniaturization, these small tools need to be as small as possible, at the same time will reliably perform its specified functions. Flexible circuit to solve the challenges of medical FPC manufacturers. One of the significant features of the medical FPC is that it allows medical FPC manufacturers make smaller devices.

The dynamic bending

Medical FPC extraordinary ability to bend or bending. Medical devices are usually in the process of its operation will be expansion/contraction. Medical FPC bending characteristics makes it very suitable for medical applications. For application through hinge device connection, this property is also very good. For the health care industry designer, flexibility is especially challenging, because in the past, this is not a major consideration in medical electronic products. Most early medical devices in the past are bigger, stronger. With the emergence of flexible circuits, medical equipment is developing to a more compact, durable and flexible.

reliability

Reliability is the system continues to perform its required function without the ability to cause performance degradation or failure. In the medical application and wearable devices, reliability becomes crucial. Usually, the interconnection point is a potential source of electronic failure. Minimize the join and simplify the flexible circuit assembly. The characteristics of flexible circuit eliminates interconnection bad solder defects such as opportunity. Medical FPC basically made of polyimide materials. The polyimide FPC material can resist various environmental and chemical changes. Medical FPC material ductility and flexibility of minimize the influence of the events of the impact and vibration.

Electric reliability

Medical FPC material basically is very suitable for high-speed signal applications. Reliability FPC has the following function: compared with the standard rigid materials, dielectric constant increase; Uneven thickness of the material; Consistent with the line width and spacing; Trace width calculator.

Space and weight

A new era of medical equipment and wearable devices is one of the dynamic characteristics of the size of the minimum. These small tools needed to function in the implementation of the at the same time, must be as small as possible. In the health-care industry growing demand for such a small device, make medical FPC become the ideal choice for such equipment. Flexible circuit with thin copper layer and insulating layer. Therefore, medical FPC bending radius can minimize according to need. As a result, these medical FPC can adapt to a narrow space.
