Flexible Printed Circuits (FPCs) are pivotal components in advanced
LED light strip systems, mandating stringent performance in
flexibility, reliability, environmental resilience, and
customization scalability. This specification document defines the
technical parameters, performance benchmarks, and service protocols
of the HQ046 LED light strip FPC—a double-layer flexible circuit
board engineered for demanding lighting applications across
industries. It comprehensively outlines the manufacturer’s
customization capabilities, compliance with international
standards, quality assurance frameworks, and end-to-end technical
support, serving as an authoritative reference for engineers,
procurement professionals, and technical decision-makers selecting
LED light strip FPC solutions.
The HQ046 is a high-performance FPC specifically developed for LED
light strip integration, combining structural integrity, mechanical
durability, and environmental adaptability. Its core specifications
are summarized in the table below:
With 16 years of specialized experience in FPC R&D and
manufacturing, we offer full-spectrum customization for LED light
strip FPCs, spanning single-layer, double-layer, and multi-layer
configurations. Key technical parameters and customizable options
are detailed as follows:
- Precision FPC: Maximum dimensions 240×500mm (limit specification:
250×500mm); no minimum size restriction, supporting micro-scale
custom designs.
- Roll-type FPC: Maximum width 240mm; maximum length 100 meters,
optimized for high-volume continuous production.
Layer configuration is tailored to circuit complexity and
functional requirements, with the following industry-proven
options:
- Single-layer FPC: Streamlined structure with cost-efficiency,
suitable for low-complexity circuits in industrial controls, basic
electronic instruments, and entry-level LED lighting systems.
- Double-layer FPC: Dual copper foil layers with enhanced plated
through-holes (PTH) for reliable interlayer connectivity, ideal for
high-integration applications such as automotive lighting, smart
device backlights, and mid-to-high-end LED light strips.
- Multi-layer FPC: Customizable layer counts for
ultra-high-complexity scenarios requiring dense wiring,
multi-signal parallel transmission, and advanced functional
integration.
Solder mask selection is optimized for functional performance and
aesthetic requirements:
- Yellow Solder Mask: Universal solution for general-purpose
applications (e.g., standard cable assemblies) offering balanced
cost-effectiveness and process compatibility.
- Black Solder Mask: Preferred for high-end lighting systems
(automotive headlamps, LED displays, smartphone backlights) due to
its superior light absorption, minimizing reflection and enhancing
visual uniformity.
- White Solder Mask: Equipped with high-reflectivity coating to
maximize light utilization, suitable for professional lighting
fixtures, medical aesthetic devices, and high-brightness LED
displays.
Copper foil thickness is customized based on current-carrying
capacity, mechanical flexibility, and thermal management needs:
- Precision FPC:
- Single-layer: 18μm (0.5oz), 35μm (1oz)
- Double-layer: 12μm (0.33oz), 18μm (0.5oz), 35μm (1oz)
- Standard FPC:
- Single-layer: 18μm, 25μm, 35μm (1oz), 50μm
- Double-layer: 18-25μm, 25-25μm, 35-35μm, 35-70μm
As a critical indicator of FPC precision, the minimum line width
and spacing are controlled to 3mil (0.076mm) as the recommended
practical limit. This specification balances manufacturing yield,
cost-effectiveness, and long-term reliability—finer dimensions can
be achieved upon request but may increase production complexity and
defect rates.
The HQ046 FPC delivers industry-leading flexibility and bending
resistance, validated through rigorous quality control procedures:
- Each batch of base materials undergoes testing with professional
bending fatigue testers to ensure consistent mechanical
performance.
- All finished products pass a minimum of 10,000 bending cycles (per
IPC test standards) prior to mass production, guaranteeing
resistance to fatigue failure in dynamic applications (foldable
lighting, curved surface installations, and repeated motion
scenarios).
Our production facility is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment
