Important steps prior to Layer Stack Design:Flex-Rigid Standards and options
Design-to-Cost 1: system
! Flex-Rigid is mechatronic
= Mechanic + Electronic !
all electrical and mechanical interfaces must be taken into consideration during the conceptual phase
An optimization could cut costs remarkably

Important steps prior to Layer Stack Design:Flex-Rigid Standards and options
Design-to-Cost 2: interfaces Expensive flexible tails due to weak mechanical design− nesting not possible− optimisation of needed area− combination of interfaces− Option of folding

Options for mechanical design of flexible layersFlex-Rigid Standards and options
„lift-off“- design
no vias allowed in lift-off area no copper design next to flex
layers, ok on all other layers specification in drawing:
„lift-off area, not laminated“

Standard Stack-up Flex-Rigid 1
Standard 1F-xRi stack-up− Rigid: FR4 Tg ≥150°C, halogen free, filled− Flex: Polyimide Tg > 200°C, typ. 50µm thick− soldermask, flexible soldermask partially in bending area− Inner layer copper thickness: 18µm
Flex-Rigid Standards and options

Standard Stack-up Flex-Rigid 2
Standard xRi-2F-xRi stack-up− Rigid: FR4 Tg ≥150°C, halogen free, filled− Flex: Polyimide Tg > 200°C, typ. 50µm thick− soldermask, Polyimide Coverlay partially in bending area (BIKINI)− Inner layer copper thickness: 18µm

Advanced Stack-ups: NON - Standard
Airgap constructions− 2F + 2F + 2F + ….. not glued− up to 70µm copper on flex material− bending becomes easier− requires a long flex area!
Recommendation: H ≥ 50mm

Creation of a flex-rigid Stackup 3Ri-2F-3RiFlex-Rigid Layer Stack Design
EDA Tool: Altium Designer 18Layer Stack Manager - one possible way:
Load „Presets“: Eight Layer Adapt the order of Cores / Prepregs Adapt thickness of copper, dielectric „Add Stack“ in Window „Advanced“ Deselect not used layers in substack „Flex“ „Add Layer“: „Add Flex Coverlays“
Now this becomes much easier!

Digital standard stackupsFlex-Rigid Layer Stack Design
Benefits of digital layer stackups Error avoidance & productivity increase− Avoid errors and increase productivity by importing proven stackups into
your EDA tool− always up-to-date on our website
Reliability− Proven stackups ensure the manufacturability and reliability of your
printed circuit board
Safety and security− Use of market-standard and cost-optimized standards− Avoidance of exotic and expensive special constructions and materials− Standards with stocked materials and standardized production processes
enable high quality and cost-effective production with shorter delivery times.
