Ultra thin core pcb manufacturer from China? With the market demand pushing for thinner devices, people are trying to make the design more portable, lighter, and more flexible, so the application for the extra thin PCB are used more and more widely. Extra thin FR4 PCB can be manufactured as thin as a flexible PCB, bendable similar like a flexible circuit, but more rigid, and cost will be lower, comparing with the same copper traces on each board. For extra thin PCB, we can make it at 0.15 mm, 0.20 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.30 mm, with or without the solder mask, and copper thickness ½ OZ, 1 OZ, 2 OZ, 3 OZ. Read extra info on ultra thin core pcb.
Best Technology wholesale fr4 PCB manufacturer specialized in many kinds of fr4 board and provides fr4 PCB assembly service since 2006. Please contact Best Technology fr4 board suppliers anytime and get quotes! FR-4 is a widely accepted international grade destination for fibreglass reinforced epoxy laminated that is flame retardant (self-extinguishing). After adding a copper layer on one or each side of FR4, it becomes Copper Clad Laminate (CCL), and this is the non-conductive core material for normally printed circuit board (PCB). The printed circuit board using FR4 as core material will be named as “FR4 PCB”.
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.
The main difference between a FR4 board and MCPCB is the thermal conductivity dielectric material in the MCPCB. This acts as a thermal bridge between the IC components and metal backing plate. Heat is conducted from the package through the metal core to an additional heat sink. On the FR4 board the heat remains stagnant if not transferred by a topical heatsink. According to lab testing a MCPCB with a 1W LED remained near an ambient of 25C, while the same 1W LED on a FR4 board reached 12C over ambient. LED PCB always be produced with Aluminum core, but sometimes steel core PCB also be used.
While Flexible PCBs offer significant advantages, they are also prone to damages. Broadly damages can accrue from two factors: environmental factors and problems that account for issues at the design/fabrication stages. Let us look at both these aspects in some detail. Several environmental factors can cause damage to PCBs, including moisture, static electricity, dust, extreme temperatures, chemical corrosion, and pests. For example, if the PCB is stored in an environment with a lot of moisture, it can destroy the flexible PCB. Moisture can result in a short. Also, given that molds can grow in a damp environment, it will result in a circuit failure. The storage area must be free of any static creating agents. Storing PCBs in carpeted rooms, for example, can result in damage to printed circuit boards on account of the static electricity generated.
Flex PCB ( FPC ) is stands for Flexible Printed Circuits, or sometimes we just call it Flexible Circuits or Flex Circuits, which is the electronic component developed to allow electronic goods to become smaller and lighter, and it have been widely used from 1980s in USA & Europe, and then widely spread out around the world. Since flex circuits (flexible circuit) has excellent working efficiency and strong heat-resistance, it is widely used as a core component of all electronic goods such as cameras, computers and peripheral equipments, mobile phones, video & audio units, camcorders, printers, DVD, TFT LCD, satellite equipment, military equipments, and medical instruments. Anyway, Best Technology flex pcb manufacturer will provide OEM/ODM service. Find more information at https://www.bstpcb.com/.
Double sided flex circuits consists with double sided copper conductors and can be connected from both sides. It allows more complicated circuit designs, more components assembled. The major material used are copper foil, polyimide and coverlay. Adhesiveless stack up is popular for better dimensional stability, high temperature, thinner thickness. Dual access flexible circuit board refer to the flex circuit which can be accessed from both top and bottom side but only has only layer of conductor trace. Copper thickness 1OZ and coverlay 1mil, it similar with 1 layer FPC and opposite side FFC. There’re coverlay openings on both sides of flex circuit so that there’re solderable PAD on both top and bottom sides, that is similar with double sided FPC, but dual access flex circuit board has different stack up because of only one copper trace, so no plating process is need to make plated through hole (PTH) to connect between top and bottom side, and trace layout is much more simple. Art-of-state Technology: 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 layer MCPCB, etc.
A PCB is sort of like a layer cake or lasagna- there are alternating layers of different materials which are laminated together with heat and adhesive such that the result is a single object. The base material, or substrate, is usually fiberglass. Historically, the most common designator for this fiberglass is “FR4”. This solid core gives the PCB its rigidity and thickness. There are also flexible PCBs built on flexible high-temperature plastic (Kapton or the equivalent). You will find many different thickness PCBs; the most common thickness for PCB & MCPCB products is 1.6mm (0.063″). Some of our products- Best Technology boards and Arudino Pro Micro boards- use a 0.8mm thick 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.
