Printed circuit board according to the layer to have single panel, double panel and sandwich plate. The making craft of single and double panel is simple! This paper is in the process of Multilayer PCB laminate technology! Multilayer printed circuit board is composed of more than three layers of conductive graphics layer and insulation layer alternately by laminated gluing together and form of the PCB, and meet the design requirements stipulated conductive graphics interconnection between the layers. It has high density, small volume, light weight, high reliability, etc, output value is the highest, fastest growing type of PCB products. With towards high-speed, multi-functional electronic technology, large capacity and portable low consumption direction development, the application of multilayer printed circuit board is more and more widely, its layers and the density is becoming more and more high, the corresponding structure is becoming more and more complex. Laminated technology, refers to the use of half cure piece (by epoxy glass cloth dipping, baking to solvent is made of a sheet material. The resin B stage, under the effect of temperature and pressure, the liquid and can be quickly solidified and complete bonding.) The conductive graphics of gluing technology under high temperature and high pressure.

Multilayer PCB laminate technology according to the positioning system adopted by the different, can be divided into laminated before positioning system technology (PIN - LAN) and positioning system after laminated technology (MASS - LAM). The former location accuracy is high, but low efficiency, high cost, only applies to the number of high-level, high precision production of multilayer printed circuit board, and the latter while positioning accuracy is low, but high efficiency, low cost, so this method is the present domestic most of the PCB manufacturer for laminated process method is generally used to mass production.

1 before positioning system lamination technology

1.1 before positioning system introduction

Circuit graphics positioning system is throughout the multilayer film production, graphic transfer inside and outside layer, laminated and CNC drilling process, such as a common problems. Every layer of multilayer PCB circuit graphics, relative to other layers must be accurate positioning, to ensure that multi-layer PCB circuit between each layer can be correctly connected to the hole metallization. For the number of high-level, high density and large panels laminated is particularly important.

Review of a multilayer laminated making used pin positioning method, there are two round hole pin positioning method, a hole slot pin positioning method, three round hole or four round hole positioning method, and this article will introduce four slots positioning method. The positioning method is a Multiline company, using its provide a series of four slots positioning equipment, in the lining of the photographic template, to produce four slots on the single chip. Then use the corresponding four grooved pin to achieve graphics transfer, laminated, laminated and CNC drilling and a series of process of the position.

1.2 positioning system before laminating process

According to former positioning system of multilayer PCB laminate, mostly adopts the single chip laminated technology in the past, in the process of the whole inner graphic production, of one side of the external layer of protection, not only brought trouble to make, and the production efficiency is low; Especially for four layer board can produce the problem such as the plate warping. The copper foil laminated technology widely used now, every mouth can suppress 2 ~ 3 pieces, improve the production efficiency, and fundamentally solve the four layer board surface buckling problem in production. (if using laminated after positioning system, while still using the same press, as a result of not using heavy molds, protect the compressor every opening can be suppressed even 6 piece of sandwich plate.) Here is only a brief introduction to the copper foil laminated technology USES.

(1) a curing slice preparation

(a) in clean and dust-free environment, will be cut into strip coil, and then use paper cutting knife cut into piece, size according to the monolithic blank width enlarge to 10 mm;

(b) in the positioning hole position, into a pile with a bench drill positioning hole, aperture is bigger than locating pin diameter 1.5 ~ 2.0 mm;

(c) every half piece has broken fiber, big grain on curing glue, impurity defects should be removed, operation should be Dai Qingjie yarn gloves, it is strictly prohibited to hand sweat, oil pollution;

(d) cutting half curing, to wear a mask to avoid inhaling powder tree. Wear gown trousers, avoid tree powder stick to the skin and cause itching or irritation. At the same time, should avoid tree powder into eyes;

(e) cutting processing good half cure piece, should be promptly put in more than 1 x 10-1 Tuo vacuum ark, excluding volatile and damp, ban into the oven or refrigerator and moisture, prevent aging, bonding. In a vacuum storage cabinet platoon is wet should be greater than 48 hours

(f) should be carried out on the new half curing performance measurement. As the growth of the storage period, material aging, directly affect the fluidity and gelation time, it is closely related to the quality of the product, is the basis of process parameters. On performance measurement and calculation, see the section quality control.

(2) inner monolithic black and dry

(a) the inner black PCB process

upper plate → unoil → wash →wash → Microetching → The secondary countercurrent washing → preimpregnation → melanism → wash → wash → Also protect the → hot wash → wash→The lower

(b) using ammat company provides the darkening of the solution;

(c) the corrosion rate control range: 1.0 2.0 mu m/cycle.

(d) black weighing control range: 0.2 0.35 mg/cm2.

(e) after the appearance of the dry, the surface is black, graze without black powder falling;

(f) inspection after laminated peel strength test, the peeling strength should be above 2.0 N/mm;

(g) after the black single chip with hook hanging in the electrothermal constant temperature drying box, 90 ~ 100 ℃, drying at least 60 minutes.

( 3 ) Other requirements before loading mode

(a) new leader of die application will protect the oil clean gasoline at the surface should be cleared with the mold resin dust, dirt , can not scratch the surface of the cleaning process , the mold surface may not have pits and projections of particles ;

(b) with 0.05mm polyester film for stripping material, to prevent the outflow of epoxy resin and die bonding, die cut material dimension greater than about 15 ~ 20mm, the site of punching or drilling dowel pins , dowel pins aperture greater than 2mm ;

(c) hobs should pad about 10 layers of kraft paper , on the one hand as a buffer layer of heat transfer , while protecting the furnace board without strain. For uneven mold , pin up on the die, the die size less than 200mm × 200mm who should be the appropriate measures, or does not allow direct pressure to prevent the causing local deformation , damage stove plate flatness ;

(d) prepreg model number of sheets of prepreg fill should be based on the total thickness of the inner piece , product design thickness requirements or process card labeling process requirements, while pressing the actually used , the actual performance and the actual thickness of the pressure test after to decide ( fill prepreg , 1080 shall not be less than two , to prevent the phenomenon of micro- bubbles caused due to insufficient amount of glue ) ;

(e) For larger mold weight and prevent injured and out of the mold .

( 4 ) into the mold preload

Prior to preload into the mold , the press should be heated to 175 ± 2 ℃, into the mold to ensure begin immediately after lamination .

Pre- pressure : 0.8 ~ 1.5Mpa (8 ~ 15 kg / cm ) , time: 4 to 8 minutes ;

(b) 140T really Compressor (OEM companies ) :

Pre- pressure : 0.56 ~ 0.7Mpa (80 ~ 100 lbs. / Square inch ) , Time: 7 to 8 minutes ;

After preloading squish one minute ;

(c) after preloading pressure applied into the mold , the size is generally determined by the prepreg situation . When prepreg flow was reduced, may be appropriate to increase the preload pressure.

(d) Characteristics time by preloading stage prepreg , laminating temperature , buffer paper thickness , size of PCB and PCB layers affected .

If preloading period is too short , the full pressure is applied too early will cause excessive loss of resin , and in severe shortage of rubber , layered ; If preloading period is too long , too late, that full pressure is applied between layers of air and volatiles copies are not completely excluded , the gap has not been filled resin will produce bubbles and other defects in the multilayer . Therefore , it is important to grasp the opportunity to pressure changes .

When the prepreg flow index below 30 %, should be shortened pre-press time , or even directly from full pressure operation.

In short , due to the characteristics of the relationship between pre-press cycle and prepreg very close, pre-press cycle is not the same level , pressure test must be passed in multilayer laminated good basis for a comprehensive inspection on the pre- pressure cycles make the appropriate adjustments before formally put into production .

(5) ShiQuan pressure and heat/pressure

After the preloading, on the premise of keeping constant temperature, turn pressure ShiQuan operation. And according to the requirements of the process parameters of heat/pressure.
