Printed circuit board

A method of manufacture comprising:

• providing a first printed circuit board and an enclosure for a portable computing device, said first printed circuit board including a flexible member extending from a body portion of the first printed circuit board and sharing a common substrate with the first printed circuit board wherein the flexible member includes a plurality of traces and wherein a free end of the flexible member includes a first interface to the plurality of traces;
• securing the first printed circuit board within an interior portion of the enclosure;
• securing a first fastener across the flexible member such that a surface of the first fastener is in contact with a side of the flexible member including the plurality of traces;
• deflecting the free end of the flexible member such that the flexible member is bent along a first line proximate to the first fastener;
• securing the free end of the flexible member using a second fastener wherein the flexible member is bent along a second line proximate to the second fastener such that an end portion of the free end is located at a different depth within the enclosure than the body portion of the first printed circuit board;
• connecting a second circuit board to the first interface to allow data and power to be transmitted between the second circuit board and first circuit board via the plurality of traces on the flexible member;
• and
• determining a location of the plurality of traces relative to one another on the flexible member wherein thinner traces and thicker traces are routed along the flexible member and wherein thicker traces are routed across areas on the flexible member with stress values that are higher than the stress values where the thinner traces are routed on the flexible member.
