Technology has developed a solderable, organic
copper-clad laminate flexible circuit substrate
materials that can be used at temperatures as
high as 300°C. The standard flexible circuit
material uses 1 oz copper on this non-polyimide
proprietary molecularly flexible material for
a total 3-mil thickness as flexible circuit
substrate. These flexible circuit materials
are available with ¼or 3/8-oz copper
for super fine-pitch flexible circuit applications
of less than 1-mil line/spacing and via.

Flexible Circuit Material Characteristics:
• Proprietary
organic copper-clad laminate material with low
dielectric constant, 3.0 @ 1 KHz with less than
0.01 dielectric loss and high insulation strength
(>1000VDC/3-mil thickness).
• Non-silicone and non-contaminating molecularly
flexible dielectric layer.
• Withstands chemical etching and wet chemical
treatments for all PWB/PCB processes.
• Maintains outstanding flexibility even at
temperatures of as low as –40°C.
• Eliminates traditional polyimide flexible
circuit material “measling” and
other moisture induced degradation and reliability
problems as usually associated with polyimide
based circuit boards.
• Outstanding moisture resistance, less than
0.3%, while maintaining high electrical and
mechanical performance.
• UL-94-V0 fire-retardant rating.
• Same circuit density and design rules as traditional
FR-4 and BT board.
• Lower temperature multi-layer flexible circuit
processing from as low as 125°C.
• Solderable flexible circuit applications at
50% of the traditional polyimide flexible circuit
material substrate cost.
Applications
• Organic copper-clad
laminate substrate flexible circuit materials
to replace polyimide and PTFE.
• Flex tape for area-array flexible circuit
and interposer substrate.
• Flip-chip on flex with superfine pitches.
• Directly solderable flat and flexible jumpers.
• Flat and flexible cabling that can be used
in class
• Solderable membrane switches and circuits.
• Roll-to-roll or panel processing.
• Available in rolls of various lengths and
width.
