3M Flexible Display Circuit Online for Viewing; See Advanced Design and Manufacturing Capabilities, Order Sample Circuit Online.


AUSTIN, Texas -- Electronic circuit and packaging designers can get a good look at 3M brand Flexible Circuits for display applications, thanks to a new feature on 3M's Web site www.3M.com/display.

The company has produced a sample circuit to demonstrate 3M's advanced design and manufacturing capabilities in providing one- and two-metal layer solutions for LCD-TFT and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) A display technology that uses rod-shaped molecules (liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light. Unenergized, the crystals direct light through two polarizing filters, allowing a natural background color to show.  module Chip on Flex (CoF) and Chip on Glass (CoG) display applications. The company produces one-metal layer circuits at 35 micron micron: see micrometer.


One micrometer, which is one millionth of a meter or approximately 1/25,000 of an inch. The tiny elements that make up a transistor on a chip are measured in micrometers and nanometers. See process technology.
 pitch and two-metal circuits at 60 micron pitch in volume production. Prototypes are produced as low as 30 micron and 50 micron pitch for one- and two-metal circuits, respectively. An interactive demo on the Web site enables designers to see extreme close-up photography of the circuit features.

Visitors can request a sample of the one-metal layer circuit online to help them evaluate 3M flexible circuits for their new or existing display applications.

3M provides custom flexible circuits and rigidized flex substrates for today's demanding electronics applications including display, medical, hard disk drives, IC packaging, optoelectronics and inkjet printers A printer that propels droplets of ink directly onto the medium. Today, almost all inkjet printers produce color. Low-end inkjets use three ink colors (cyan, magenta and yellow), but produce a composite black that is often muddy. . 3M's technology, materials and process expertise enable the company's offering of high-performance solutions.
