As the technology move forward, the complication of the circuit board has become a bigger problem for the designer as look for a more advance PCB Manufacturer in order to support them with a higher layer counts and tighter specification.

One of our Major Goal for this 2014. We were aiming to increase our production capabilities from Maximum Layer counts of 10 Layers up to 20 Layers.

At the beginning of the year, our engineering team had started

designing the test board and copper trace for the capabilities improvement analysis.

The test sample was completed during beginning of march and we spend the entire month doing test analysis for Electrical connectivity&Isolation, structure bonding strength. PTH analysis, Delamination test, etc.

In April, we had completed all the tests and the result was “PASS”

Apart from our new 20 Layers capabilities achievement, we have also achieved these following capabilities:

- Minimum Drill hole 0.15 mm. PTH

- New PTH aspect ratio 12:1

- Maximum board thickness 3.0mm.

We go even “HIGHER”!

20 LAYERS IS HERE!

Energy saving has played a major part in decision making on infrastructure development of the modern world.

LED lighting system is one of the major change to the traditional lighting bulb and tube.

People are turning to LED not only because of its energy saving benefit, it also has a longer life and giving out a brighter spectrum comparing to the old style. But the increase in

performance and lower electricity consumption comes with some draw backs.

LED gives out a brighter light which most of the energy consumed has turned into heat. This heat will have a negative effect on the LED life. Therefore, Aluminium PCB was invented to solve this problem.

By attaching Aluminium to the back of the PCB, it helps transferring a lot of heat away

from the LED and release them to the atmosphere.

By choosing to go with Aluminium PCB, we can expect a longer life time and less discoloration due to color change on LED lens from the heat.

Aluminium PCB is here!

“We go beyond the ordinary” As the technology moves forward, the circuit board manufacturer needs to adapt to more complicated requirement from products developer in order to compete in the electronics market.

At Circuit Industries Co., Ltd. we are strived to develop our capabilities to meet such demand for the technology of the future.

Now we have completed the test run of our new 0.15mm diameter mechanical drill with copper plated through holes.

By reducing the via size that consumes a lot of space not only on the board surface for component assembly but it also restrict the inner layer trace routing. The critical point for fabricating a small via hole with copper plated through hole is the copper deposition thickness

inside the hole, because as the hole gets smaller, it is harder for the chemical to flow through during plating process.

According to IPC standard, minimum copper plating thickness is 20um. Our average plating thickness in this 0.15mm. hole is 27 um.

Less space consuming using smaller holes.

SMALLER VIA MEANS MORE SPACE FOR YOUR TRACE ROUTING AND

COMPONENT PLACEMENT.
