Abstract
An elongate, flexible printed circuit board (PCB) has a central section that carries LED light engines and other components, and a pair of wings, one on each side of the central section, adjacent to the central section. The wings carry adhesive to secure the PCB to a substrate, and may be separated from the central section in some cases by fold or score lines. The LED light engines may be positioned on a first side of the PCB and electrically connected to one or more components on a second side of the PCB. Taken together, the wings may have the same width as the central section, or they may have a greater width.

Linear lighting, comprising:
- an elongate, flexible printed circuit board (PCB) having a central area and a pair of wings disposed along respective sides of the central area, each of the pair of wings having adhesive disposed on a first side or a second side thereof, and a plurality of LED light engines disposed on a first side of the PCB within the central area, the plurality of LED light engines being spaced along a length of the PCB;
- wherein the central area does not include the adhesive, wherein the pair of wings are separated from the central section of the PCB by fold or score lines.
