Development Example
IMPC® Right Angle Connector Sample

IMPC® Right Angle Connector Sample is a sample of IMPC® with resin integrally molded connectors 90 degrees transverse to the substrate surface(right-angle connectors).  The connector is molded together during injection molding.

Overhead Console

This is an image sample of an IMPC® that we have made as a prototype. Touch sensor, a microcontroller, high power LEDs (with a current value of a few amps), a physical switch and other components are soldered together.
