Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of flexible circuit board manufacturing, in particular to a flexible circuit board with embedded capacitors and a manufacturing method thereof.

With the rapid development of the electronic industry, electronic products increasingly tend to be light and thin and integrated.

In a typical circuit board assembly, less than 3% of passive devices such as capacitors, resistors, etc. occupy 40% of the surface space of the circuit board. In addition, parasitic effects exist among densely distributed components on the surface of the circuit board, and the influence on signal integrity is very large.
To solve the above increasingly significant contradictions, passive device embedding technology was proposed in the early eighties of the last century. The technology has remarkable advantages in the aspects of shortening the electrical length between components, improving the electrical characteristics, eliminating welding points, improving the reliability of products, reducing the packaging area, realizing the miniaturization of the products and the like.
