# DEDBUG FLEX
The DEDBUG FLEX boards are supplemental modules that attach to the DEDBUG Protoboard, extending its capabilities. By soldering a FLEX board onto the DEDBUG prototyping area, users gain a dense array of pads for the chosen component size, enabling rapid assembly and testing of circuits that require many small SMD parts.
### Features
- Designed to be soldered onto the DEDBUG Protoboard, adding dedicated pad arrays without redesigning the base board.
- Each FLEX board provides a 12x12 matrix of pads, offering a uniform footprint for component placement.
- The leftmost column of pads terminates at an edge connector that aligns with the Protoboard's cross-shaped pads, ensuring reliable electrical connection.
- Six distinct boards are available, covering common SMD dimensions: 0201, 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206 and 1210.
- Enables rapid prototyping of large numbers of identical components, useful for testing high-density designs or batch assembly.
- All FLEX boards are engineered to fit the existing DEDBUG Protoboard layout, requiring no additional hardware modifications.
- Users can combine multiple FLEX boards on a single Protoboard to accommodate mixed-size component layouts.
