PCB - Flexible circuits
Baselectron manufactures single and double sided flexible printed circuit boards for various applications.
The material is Polyimide (Dupont's Kapton for example)
Generally, in Flex printed circuits the Solder resist is replaced by an amber-colored Coverlay (always in polyimide) but it is still possible to use the Solder resist (green, white, black, blue or yellow).
Single face
Single-sided, Monolayer, Single side and Monorame are different ways to identify a single-sided printed circuit or with a single layer of tracks.
Double-sided
Double-sided, Bilayer, Double side and Double-sided, are different ways to identify a double-sided printed circuit or with the tracks on both surfaces.
Multilayer
Multilayer, MLB are the names that are used to identify Multilayer printed circuit boards with additional layers of internal tracks.
Solder
Solder resist or Solder Mask is called the normally green protective layer that limits the soldering to the pitches only and also leaves the comb connectors and mechanical contacts uncovered, it is often abbreviated to solder.
