Premium pcb assembly service factory? What we provide is not only PCB & MCPCB manufacturing, but also including PCB duplicating, Engineering & process design, components management & sourcing solution, PCB in house assembly & full system integration, surface mounted technology (SMT), full products assembly & testing. See additional details on thin core pcb. 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.

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. 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.

In order to provide one-stop-services to customers, we can also provide FPC and Rigid-flex PCB Assembly service (also named SMT: Surface Mounting Technology). We can purchase all components from abroad or domestic market, and provide full products to you with short lead time. High Density Interconnects (HDI) board are defined as a board (PCB) with a higher wiring density per unit area than conventional printed circuit boards (PCB). They have finer lines and spaces (<100 µm), smaller vias (<150 µm) and capture pads (300, and higher connection pad density (>20 pads/cm2) than employed in conventional PCB technology. HDI board is used to reduce size and weight, as well as to enhance electrical performance.

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.

Since beginning, as the printed circuit board manufacturers with best pcb assembly service in Asia, Best Technology is dedicating to be your best partner of advance, high-precision printed circuit boards, such as heavy copper boards, ultra thin PCB, mixed layers, high TG, HDI, high frequency (Rogers, Taconic), impedance controlled board, Metal Core PCB (MCPCB) such as Aluminum PCB, Copper PCB, and Ceramic PCB (conductor Copper, AgPd, Au, etc) and so on. What we provide is not only PCB & MCPCB manufacturing, but also including PCB duplicating, Engineering & process design, components management & sourcing solution, PCB in house assembly & full system integration, surface mounted technology (SMT), full products assembly & testing.

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.
