Ceramic Circuit Board VS Metal Core PCB

Ceramic circuit board and Metal PCB are good in heat dissipation of PCB board.The application of the traditional LED heat dissipation substrate,Metal Core PCB (MCPCB) is different from the application range of ceramic heat dissipation substrate.MCPCB is mainly used in the system circuit board.The ceramic circuit board is applied to the LED chip

What Is The Best Quality PCB

All PCB board looks almost same from the surface.Through the surface we see differences, and these differences are crucial to the durability and function of the PCB board throughout life. It is essential that the PCB board have reliable performance both in the manufacturing process and in the actual use.In addition to the relevant

PCB Backdrilling Technology

What is backdrilling? In the high speed signal transmission printed circuit board, part copper of vias becomes the signal transmission"tail" (Stubs),adverse effects on signal transmission,in order achieve better signal integrity, it is necessary to reduce the length of the Stubs in vias,shorter length of the residual Stubs is better for integrity of the signal. Backdrilling

How To Avoid PCB Wrap?

The warpage of the circuit board will cause the inaccurate positioning of the components.When the PCB is bent at SMT and THT process, the foot of the components are not in line, which will bring many difficulties to the assembly and installation work. The maximum warpage or distortion of the IPC-6012,

How To Manufacture FPC Board?

The production process of a flexible printed circuit board is basically similar rigid PCB.For some operations, the flexibility of the laminates requires different devices and completely different processing methods.Most flexible PCB uses a negative method.However, there are some difficulties in the machining of flexible laminated plates and in the process of coaxial

How To Choose Reliable PCB Factory?

High precision electronic products usually go through three stages: R &D, trial production, mass production, then how to choose the PCB factory at different phase? Many PCB circuit designers and purchases can't find the right suppliers. PCB prototype Low price with bad quality,high quality with high price Mass production Big factory don’t need

High Frequency PCB Application

High frequency electronic equipment is the development trend, especially in the increasing development of wireless network, satellite communications, technology information products trend high speed and high frequency, and communication products trend large capacity high speed wireless transmission of voice, video and data standardization, so the development of a new generation of products require high frequency circuit board. The communication products such as satellite system, mobile phone receiving base station and so on, must be equipped with high frequency circuit boards, which will develop rapidly in the next few years. There will be large demand for high-frequency substrates. The basic characteristics of high frequency substrate materials require the following points: 1.The dielectric constant (Dk) must be small and very stable, usually is the square root of the transfer rate and the dielectric constant of the smaller the better signal is inversely proportional to the high dielectric constant, easy to cause the signal transmission delay. 2.The dielectric loss (Df) must be small, which mainly affect the signal transmission quality, the less the dielectric loss so that the signal loss is small. 3.The thermal expansion coefficient of copper foil is as consistent as possible, because the inconsistency causes the separation of copper foil in the cold and heat changes. 4.The low water absorbability and high water absorption will affect the dielectric constant and dielectric loss at damp. 5.The heat-resistant, anti chemical, impact strength, peeling strength and so on must be good. In general, the high frequency can be defined as above 1GHz. The high frequency circuit board substrate is always use the fluoride substrate, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), usually known as Teflon, usually used in more than 5GHz.In addition, it also use FR4 or PPO substrate, which can be used in 1GHz ~ 10GHz products. These three kinds of high frequency substrates are compared as follows: The three kinds of high frequency substrate material Epoxy resin, PPO resin and fluorine resin which are used at present,epoxy resin is the cheapest, and the most expensive is fluorine resin; consider dielectric constant, dielectric loss, water absorption rate and the frequency characteristics,fluorine resin is the best, epoxy resin is the poor.When the frequency of product application is higher than 10GHz, only fluorine resin printed board can be applied. Obviously, fluorine resin high frequency substrate performance is far higher than that of other substrates, but its shortcomings is except high cost also poor rigidity, and high thermal expansion coefficient.For polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), in order to improve the performance, a large number of inorganic materials (such as silica SiO2) or glass cloth are used as reinforcing filler materials to improve the rigidity of the substrate and reduce its thermal expansion.In addition, because of the molecular inertia of the polytetrafluoroethylene resin, it is not easy to combine with copper foil, so it is more necessary to deal with the special surface of the copper foil.The treatment methods include polytetrafluoroethylene surface chemical etching or plasma etching, increasing the surface roughness or increasing adhesion between copper foil and polytetrafluoroethylene resin, but it may affect the performance of the dielectric. The development of fluorine based high frequency circuit board requires cooperation among raw material suppliers, research institutes, equipment suppliers, PCB manufacturers and communication products manufacturers, so as to keep up with the rapid development of high frequency circuit boards.
