4 FLEX007 MAGAZINE I JULY 2018 This month's cover art was inspired by some of the sto- ries we've heard lately about companies that are being forced into using flexible and rigid-flex circuits. This is hap- pening for a variety of reasons: Sometimes rigid boards won't fit the shrinking enclosures anymore, or the com- pany just needs a rugged, reliable circuit. We have the flex information you need in this sophomore issue of Flex007 Magazine, the quarterly magazine dedi- cated to flex system designers, electrical engineers, flex PCB designers, and anyone responsible for integrating flex into their products at the OEM/CEM level.
