Hi Group,
I am in design process of a 12 layer board. This is first time i need to design embedded flex pcb for my design. This board requires a two layer flex pcb which is embedded in some of the layer of the board. I have discussed with pcb manufacturers in china but they usually answer questions when board is already made. This maybe because of the language barrier we have between, and due to time constraints i cant afford to go for this approach, that i first design pcb and then let the manufacturer find errors in my design.
My board looks like this: ======Rigid PCB=======------FLEX PCB----=====RIGID PCB====
Following is the 12 layer Stack which i plan to design:
- Top Signal
- Power Plane
- Mid Signal1
- Mid Signal2
- Power Plane
- Mid Signal3
- Mid Signal4
- Power Plane
- Mid Signal5
- Mid Signal6
- Power Plane
- Bottom Signal
Total thickness required for the Rigid pcb is 1.25mm
Questions:
- I need to know how embedded flex pcb are designed
- Can someone tell me how do i select which layer to choose for embedded flex pcb in my pcb stack?
Best Regards,
Asim
