TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP FOR A RIGID FLEX PCB SOLUTION BY TECHNOLOGY APPLICATION MANAGER

BY BOY VAN VEGHEL

It was great to be back at D&E in Eindhoven last month – and to watch our Technology Application Manager Boy van Veghel present about the “Total Cost of Ownership for a Flex-Rigid PCB Solution”.

 

With Flex-Rigid solutions, the designer gets the 3D freedom and/or dynamic availability to develop their PCB. Designers often choose to have a separate rigid PCB in combination with a flex PCB, mating the two via connectors due to a perception that it is the cheapest solution. If you only consider the BOM then this is true, however if you look at the total cost including the connectors and the required hand assembly you will find the total cost of ownership to be higher.
