EAGLE for Flex Circuit Design

autodeskguest

Hello--

 

Has anyone used Eagle CAD for flex circuit design?  Is this possible or

even recommended?  If so, then what are some basic design aspects that I

should watch out for?

    Probably the most important considerations are to avoid sharp bends in

    traces and to route perpendicular to the direction of flex.

     

     

    This is, of course, incorrect.  What I meant to say was that you need to

    route parallel to the direction of flex.  I suppose this could be

    considered perpendicular to the axis of flex, but in short, the traces

    should go in the same direction as you plan on bending the flex cable.
