  • Improved signal quality in flexible electronics


Original Abstract Submitted

A flexible circuit board and a foldable electronic device includes a first multi-layer region, a second multi-layer region and a highly bendable region disposed between the first multi-layer region and the second multi-layer region. The first multi-layer region and the second multi-layer region include a structure in which a plurality of copper clad laminates (CCLs) are stacked. The highly bendable region includes a structure in which a single CCL extending from one CCL among the plurality of CCLs in the first multi-layer region and the second multi-layer region is stacked. The single CCL may be configured such that a first ground wire, a second ground wire, and a plurality of sub wires disposed to be spaced apart between the first ground wire and the second ground wire transmit a single RF signal.
