Needs some help on flex circuit design.  It has been a long time since my
last flex circuit, and I am looking for some input to good fabrication
facilities as well as reasonable spacing and width specs to expect.  Any
input would be appreciated.

In particular, I am looking at a ribbon connector type arrangement
(straight pin to pin connections) with trace widths in the 8-10 mil range
and pad clearances as small as .012 mil.......   Does this sound like
something some of you are already doing?  I'm looking at a product that
will run in the 50-100 lot per month quantities.

Thanks in advance for any input.
