FPC ENIG surface plated

Posted by on July 18, 2011 No comments

Now the popular of the FPC surface plating is ENIG, but what’s the ENIG? It’s Nickel Immersion Gold.

The flexible circuits copper surface is plated of Ni/Au. The deposition thickness of the inner Ni layer is generally3~6um, the deposition thickness of the outer Au thin, usually 0.03 ~ 0.1um. Ni as the barrier layer between Cu and soldering tin. Welding, outside Au in the solder which melts rapidly with soldering tin and then turn into Ni/Sn intermetallic compounds with inner Ni. The gold-plated to prevent Ni oxidation during storage or passive, it should be enough gold plating density, the thickness can not be too thin.

CMD Circuits almost all flexible circuits are with the ENIG plated for customers, all of our staff are with the many years experience in line, and our customers are very satisfy with our quality when they compare with others’.

Structure and function of double-sided aluminum pcb

Posted by on June 2, 2011 No comments

The structure of double-sided aluminum pcb is generally divided into three layers: first layer of a copper foil; the second layer is the thermal insulation materials; third layer is the aluminum substrate.

The fundtion of these three layers of double-sided aluminum pcb: first layer copper foil is made as circuits(conductive). The second layer is the key to check if it has the ability to play the fast passed the heat generated LED to aluminum substrate, it is necessary to know the resistance of thermal insulation materials. The function of the third layer is the aluminum substrate pass the heat from thermal insulating material to lamps again. It also has a installation function.

Thermal conductivity of aluminum pcb is not only has a relationship with the lamps, the most critical depends on the performances of thermal insulation materials.

PCB Dry film photoresist structure and main components

Posted by on May 5, 2011 No comments

This time let’s talk about the PCB Dry film photoresist structure and main components.

1. PCB Dry film photoresist structure:

Dry film photoresist consist of the polyester film, photoresist film and polyethylene protective film three parts.

Polyester film is the based of Photosensitive layer, the thickness is usual 25um.
 
Polyethylene film is a protective film covered with a photosensitive layer on the top to prevent dirt dry dust and dirt.
General thickness of polyethylene film is also 25um.

Photoresist was the subject of dry filmmany,mostly is the negative light material.

2.The main components of photoresist film  :

1) binder (film-forming resin)

2) Light monomer

3) Photoinitiator

4) Plasticizer

5) tackifier

6) thermal polymerization inhibitor

7) pigment

(8)  Solvent
The solvent must be used to dissolve the above components, usually acetone and alcohol.

How to distinguish films?

Posted by on April 15, 2011 No comments

In general, the master film is also known as the black film, mainly used to copy the work film (yellow film), but not necessarily only a yellow film for work, are also black films do work. It mainly to do high-precision HDI board or to a one-time savings in the production of small quantities of circuit boards and flexibe pcb. Yellow films mainly used in ordinary printed circuit boards and mass production.

Positive film for the use of graphical electroplating, developing is the circuits, leaving the role of anti-corrosion plating, mainly tin and pb plating. Negatives film used for direct etching, leaving the role of circuits. When distinguish the films, the smooth side is black film, in contrast, is yellow film. And generally use scratching pen to scratch the film can be seen smooth side.

Please Note: There are both glossy and matte side of yellow film, and the second is easy to find easy-to-oil surface indentation when using. On film circuits (copper), the transmitting is negative film, opaque positive film.

PCB drilling quality problems analysis and solutions

Posted by on March 4, 2011 No comments

In the PCB drilling process may have the following quality problems:
1, partial hole, porous & leak holes;
2, broken drill bits;
3, blocking the hole (hole with debris);
4, no drill through;
5, burr hole, rough, smudge;
6, the surface burrs.

Here is a quick solution of pcb  drilling quality problems. The method is from 1 to last to  find out the problems.

1. Check the settings of drilling parameters are correct, mainly speed and lower speed. Confirmed whether it is setting or procedural issue.

2. If drilling parameters are right, put printed circuit boards on two machines(Note: to be the same machine model),and using the same or different settings of drilling to confirm the problem is the machine problems or procedural issues. As the probability is too less of the two machine have the same problems, then you can know the problem is the The equipment or procedural problems.

3. If the problems still have, replace of the raw materials and test materials.

4. If the problem still have, replace of the drill bit to test, generally the brand-name manufacturers drilling bits with less problems.

CMD Circuits have the strict quality control systems to ensure the quality of our producting, including rigid pcb, flexible pcb, aluminum pcb and all items. Please contact with us if you need any further information.

The outline of printed circuit board processing techniques

Posted by on February 17, 2011 No comments

The people who engaged in printed circuit board processing will be understanding, PCB outline processing is also one of the difficulties of PCB making, most of the PCB is a rectangle shape, but a considerable number of PCB have a special shape.

PCB outline processing methods:

1. Milling outline: the use of CNC milling machines process outline, it should be provied the milling outline data and corresponding positioning holes data, these datas provided by the programmer. As there is not a great distance between the printed circuit boards, generally about 3mm, so generally use 3mm or 2.4mm diameter cutter.

2. Punching outline: the use of punch punching outline, need of the mold and let positioning pin correspond to the positioning hole of the PCB, usually selected 3.0mm hole for positioning the holes.

3. Open “V” groove: the use of “V” groove cutting machine along the PCB design “V” slot cut the boards into several connected parts;

4. Drill outline: the use of drill to drill holes at the edge of the contour.

Normally open “V” groove and drill only for processing aids.

With the development of printed circuit board design, outline processing technology is also developing. Our company also follow up with the development of requirements of PCB technology and production to keep our products with high quality.
