PD IEC/TR 63017:2015

This standard PD IEC/TR 63017:2015 Flexible printed circuit boards (FPCBs). Method of compensation of impedance variations is classified in these ICS categories:

• 31.180 Printed circuits and boards

This Technical Report specifies a compensation method of Cu linewidth according to impeadance reduction by using noise suppression materials (hereafter referred to as NSMs) for FPCBs.

This Technical Report presents an optimum result for maintaining a designated performance of FPCBs by using NSMs. It also indicates a measuring method for an impedance variation of FPCBs using NSMs with the prevailing TDR (time domain reflectometry) method. This method is resticted to measuring only the variation of an impedance value in accordance with the variation of the Cu linewidth by using NSMs for FPCBs. This report, however, neither determines nor indicates the structure or material of FPCBs.
