BS EN 62496-3-1 is the third part of a multi-series standard used for Optical circuit boards that specifies the test method for unconnectorized optical glass fibers used in flexible optical circuit boards. This helps in determining the performance of these boards and helps in manufacturing good quality flexible optical circuit boards.
BS EN 62496-3-1 defines the performance of flexible optical circuit boards (FOCBs) using unconnectorized optical glass fibers for a controlled environment. This standard clarifies the requirements for quality classification of the flexible OCBs incorporating optical glass fibers.
BS EN 62496-3-1 on Optical circuit boards – Performance standard is useful for:
The primary function of a circuit board is to connect all the electronic components of a device in a compact space
BS EN 62496-3-1 specifies the test method and test procedure for unconnectorized optical glass fibers. This test method helps in determining the performance of flexible optical circuit boards (FOCBs). With the help of BS EN 62496-3-1, you can identify the defects and failures in these circuit boards.
By applying BS EN 62496-3-1, you can manufacture good quality flexible optical circuit boards.
