How to Design a Rigid Flexible PCB within the Circuit Board Outline?

As a Finishing PCB Technologies Supplier, share with you. Medical wearable devices need to be stylish, unobstructed, and compact; to be able to collect meaningful medical data, only few (or no) wires are required to connect to the patient. This creates a demand for flexible circuit board design. Although you are trying to break through space constraints, use smart materials, and minimize their footprint, this can be very annoying when you fall out of the circuit board outline (especially when dealing with irregular circuit board shapes).

When you scribbled on your coloring book when you were young, your mom might tell you that your photos are beautiful even though you don't consider the colors on the lines. Well, no matter how your mom thinks your work is very special, you really need to keep your PCB design objects within the circuit board outline. This is especially true for those who are designing special-shaped products with rigid and flexible designs.

As you know, the current demand for Flexible PCB is partly driven by the medical wearable device industry. Wearable Internet of Things (IoT) devices are being explored by healthcare professionals for physiological data for diagnosis, research, and personal health indicators. In addition, they change the way people view fitness by stimulating positive attitudes about it. Medical wearable devices need to be stylish, unobstructed, and compact; to be able to collect meaningful medical data, only few (or no) wires are required to connect to the patient. This creates a demand for flexible circuit board design. This can be very annoying when you work hard to push the limits of space, use smart materials and minimize their footprint, when you fall out of the board outline (especially when dealing with irregular board shapes).

In the PCB production process, the reservation of the process edge is of great significance for the subsequent SMT chip processing. The process side is to assist the soldering of the chip plug-in board. The added part of the PCB board is mainly used to assist in the production. It is not part of the PCB board and can be removed after the PCBA manufacturing is completed.
