Abstract

The present invention includes a method and apparatus for attenuating flexible circuit resonance. The apparatus includes a flexible circuit assembly. The flexible circuit assembly has a flexible circuit having a flexible cable with first and second sides. The flexible circuit assembly also includes a circuit support. The circuit support includes a base having top and bottom surfaces. The bottom surface is attached to the first side of the flexible cable. The circuit support also includes a support wall extending substantially perpendicularly relative to the top surface of the base. The support wall has a first face, which is substantially oriented towards the top surface of the base. The first side of the flexible cable is attached to the first face and also faces a second face of the support wall to thereby reverse a direction in which the flexible cable faces.
