Excellent Pcb factory? But sometimes, limited to space or margin, or needed by design purpose, people need much thinner thickness such as 0.25 mm, 0.20 mm, or even 0.15 mm, so that the PCB can be used in such as SIM card, sensor card, and so on. Because of extreme thickness, extra thin PCB, or very thin PCB name came out. Different with the flexible PCB, extra thin PCB refers to a PCB substrate made by FR4 materials. But if you need board thickness less than 0.10 mm, then you should use flexible circuit which can be 0.06 mm for 1L FPC or 0.10 mm for 2L FPC. See extra info at printed circuit board supplier.
Double-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) consist of two layers of conductive material, typically copper, separated by an insulating layer. The top and bottom layers are etched to form the desired circuitry. Double-layer PCBs offer several advantages over single-layer PCBs, including increased routing options and the ability to place components on both sides of the board. However, they are also more expensive and require more careful design to avoid short circuits.
Most of our engineer and operators has more than ten years of experience in PCB industry, so we can produce special such as 20 OZ heavy copper board, 4 layers MCPCB, etc. At the same time, we purchased many advanced, art-of-state machines & devices for PCB manufacturing, checking, to improve the quality of our boards.
Generally speaking, aluminum is the most economic option considering thermal conductivity, rigidness, and cost. Therefore, the base/core material of normal Metal Core PCB are made of aluminum. In our company, if not special request, or notes, the metal core refer will be aluminum, then MCPCB will means Aluminum Core PCB. If you need Copper Core PCB, Steel Core PCB, or Stainless steel core PCB, you should add special notes in drawing.
The design, as well as the manufacture of flexible PCBs, is a very nimble job. Seemingly minor errors such as two metal traces not being insulated on a high-voltage board, for example, can result in an arc leading to the destruction of the circuit. Errors in manufacturing can come by way of wrong selection of materials, improper design, and other such factors that can result in the capability of the flexible PCB to bend and take the required shape. If the PCB tends to fall from a height or any other external forces such as frequent plugging and unplugging of the PCB, it can cause damage to your PCB. Unreliable and faulty components can damage the board in many ways. One of them is the fact that they are unable to protect the PCB from overheating.
According to different manufacturing method, current there’re three basic types for ceramic board: A) Thick Film Ceramic Board Thick Film Ceramic PCB: Using this technology, the thickness of conductor layer exceeds 10 micron, more thick than spurting technology. The conductor is silver or gold palladium, and was printed on ceramic substrate. More for Thick Film Ceramic PCB. B) DCB Ceramic Board DCB (Direct Copper Bonded) technology denotes a special process in which the copper foil and the core (Al2O3 or ALN), on one or both sides, are directly bonded under appropriate high temperature and pressure.

A single sided flexible printed circuit (1 layer flex circuit) is a flex circuit with one layer of copper trace on one substrate, and with one layer Polyimide coverlay laminated to copper trace so that only one side copper will be exposed, so that it only allowing access to copper trace from one side, comparing to dual access flex circuit which allows access from both top and bottom side of flex circuit. As there’s only one layer of copper trace, so it also named as 1 layer flexible printed circuit, or 1 layer flexible circuit, or even 1 layer FPC, or 1L FPC. The multi layer flex circuit refer to a flex circuit with more than 2 layer circuit layers. Three or more flexible conductive layers with flexible insulating layers between each one, which are interconnected by way of metallized hole through the vias/holes and plating to form a conductive path between the different layers, and external are polyimide insulating layers. Quality Policy: PCB Quality is the core of products. All of engineer & vital department guys has more than five years expenrience in PCB industry, we follow up the default PCB standard, as well as with clients’ special request.
Cheaper PCBs and perf boards (shown above) will be made with other materials such as epoxies or phenolics which lack the durability of FR4 but are much less expensive. You will know you are working with this type of PCB when you solder to it – they have a very distictive bad smell. These types of substrates are also typically found in low-end consumer electronics. Phenolics have a low thermal decomposition temperature which causes them to delaminate, smoke and char when the soldering iron is held too long on the board.
Tg means Glass Transition Temperature. As flammability of printed circuit board (PCB) is V-0 (UL 94-V0), so if the temperature exceeds designated Tg value, the board will changed from glassy state to rubbery state and then the function of PCB will be affected. If working temperature of your product is higher than normal (130-140C), then have to use High Tg PCB material which is > 170C. and popular PCB high value are 170C, 175C, and 180C. Normally the FR4 circuit board Tg value should be at least 10-20C higher than working temperature of product. If you 130TG board, working temperature will be lower than 110C; if use 170 high TG board, then maximum working temperature should be lower than 150C.
