EMI Shielding Methods for Flex & Rigid Flex PCB Designs

Critical flex and rigid-flex circuit applications often must pass very stringent electromagnetic (EM) or radio frequency (RF) interference requirements. This type of interference, if absorbed or emitted, can negatively impact the functionality and reliability of the end product when in use. To prevent this from occurring, the circuit design must incorporate shielding to eliminate either the absorption or transmission of EM or RF interference. For flex and rigid-flex PCB designs, there are two types of shielding solutions that can be applied, but which is best suited will depend upon other design requirements. In this webinar, we review shielding methods and how to implement them in a flex or rigid-flex PCB design to ensure interference free operation of your design.
