||||
¹Distance from hole to hole: the measure refers to the distance between holes with equal electric potential. The minimum for holes with different potentials results from the minimum annular ring and the minimum conductor spacing. |
||||
²Bending radius: thickness of flexible area = addition of all materials (coverlay, adhesive, copper, base material). The information is only valid for a flexible core with maximum two copper layers. |
