Printed electronics is referred to as electronics manufactured through various printing techniques. In printed electronics, the conductive layers and the inks are deposited on the fabrics or foil. It originated from the conductive patterns printed as a part of conventional electronics to form flexible keyboards and antennas, and then move to fully printed testers on different batteries, sensors, displays, and radio-frequency identification (RFID). Printing electronics technology uses the printing equipment for defining patterns on the material, which includes screen printing, flexography, gravure, offset lithography, and inkjet.
