Building electronics in unconventional form factors with high packaging density is possible thanks to three-dimensional circuit designs using flex and rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs).

Printed circuit boards can be square, round, octagonal, or whatever shape you desire. But there’s little choice when it comes to the third dimension: most PCBs are flat and rigid. Sure, you can make ...

The now-humble PCB was revolutionary when it came along, and the whole ecosystem that evolved around it has been a game changer in electronic design. But the PCB is just so… flat. Planar.
