New energy vehicle with fire FPC At present, there are too many orders for in-vehicle FPC (flexible circuit board FPC), and its products have been used in many well-known new energy vehicle brands. Chairman Li Qiang revealed that the company's production capacity is continuing to expand, and in the future, it will increase the research and development and production capacity expansion of new energy vehicle soft boards and consumer electronics soft boards. FPC is a type of printed circuit board (PCB), which is widely used in communications, consumer electronics, and automotive fields. In traditional fuel vehicles, FPC is required for car lights, instrument panels, steering wheels, etc. The electrification and intelligence of automobiles have opened up a broader market space for FPC, and power batteries, sensors, and cameras need to use FPC. Taking batteries as an example, the new energy vehicle power battery collection line used traditional copper wire harness solutions. Compared with traditional wiring harnesses, FPC flexible circuit boards have high integration, automatic assembly, assembly accuracy, ultra-thin thickness, ultra-softness, Lightweight and many other advantages, especially in terms of automation and lightweight, provide a cheap for battery companies to improve production efficiency and save unit production costs. With the gradual popularization of new energy vehicles, in the context of declining subsidies and battery prices, battery companies need to introduce and apply new materials in power batteries in order to reduce costs. In recent years, through continuous improvement of the process, FPC manufacturers have further reduced the price of FPC for power batteries. With the joint promotion of power batteries and FPC manufacturers, the introduction environment of domestic FPC in the field of power batteries has been greatly improved, and it is gradually being adopted. It is widely adopted by various power battery manufacturers, and FPC is expected to be imported in large quantities. On the other hand, among the FPC raw materials, the cost of copper clad laminates accounts for a high proportion. Yan Fan, an analyst at China Merchants Securities, said that the price pressure of copper clad laminates is expected to be eliminated in 2022. From an investment point of view, FPC products of new energy vehicle power batteries require a certain verification period, and manufacturers that have entered the supply chain of car factories and battery factories have a first-mover advantage. In addition, FPC manufacturers that take the lead in deploying downstream integrated products CCS can further increase the value of bicycles, which is worthy of attention. In addition, material and equipment suppliers are also expected to benefit from it. Fangbang is the first domestic research and development, production, sales and An enterprise integrating service, Hongxin Electronics and Jingwang Electronics are its customers; Oat Technology has provid...

Why does the PCB surface blisters? How to deal with it? The blistering of the circuit board surface is actually a problem of poor bonding force of the board surface, and then it is the surface quality problem of the board surface, which contains two aspects: 1. The cleanliness of the board surface; 2. The problem of surface micro-roughness (or surface energy). The blistering problem on all circuit boards can be summarized as the above-mentioned reasons. The bonding force between the coatings is poor or too low, and it is difficult to resist the coating stress, mechanical stress and thermal stress generated in the production process during the subsequent production process and assembly process, which will eventually cause different degrees of separation between the coatings. Some factors that may cause poor board quality in the production and processing process are summarized as follows: 1. The problem of substrate processing: Especially for some thinner substrates (generally below 0.8mm), it is not suitable to use a brushing machine to brush the plate because of the poor rigidity of the substrate. This may not be able to effectively remove the protective layer specially treated to prevent the oxidation of the copper foil on the board surface during the production and processing of the substrate. Although the layer is thin and the brush is easier to remove, it is difficult to use chemical treatment, so in the production process It is important to pay attention to control during processing, so as to avoid the problem of blistering on the board caused by the poor bonding between the substrate copper foil and chemical copper; this problem will also cause blackening and browning when the thin inner layer is blackened. Poor, uneven color, partial black browning and other problems. 2. The phenomenon of poor surface treatment caused by oil stains or other liquids contaminated with dust during the machining (drilling, lamination, milling, etc.) process of the board surface. 3. Poor sinking copper brush plate: The pressure on the front grinding plate of the sinking copper is too high, causing the orifice to be deformed, brushing out the copper foil rounded corners of the orifice or even leaking the base material, which will cause the orifice to bubble during the process of electroplating and tinning welding of the sinking copper; even if it is brushed The board does not cause leakage of the substrate, but the heavy brushing board will increase the roughness of the hole copper, so during the process of microetching roughening, the copper foil at this place is very easy to produce excessive roughening phenomenon, and there will also be a certain quality. Hidden hazards; therefore, attention should be paid to strengthening the control of the brushing process, and the brushing process parameters can be adjusted to the best through the wear scar test and the water film test; 4. Washing problem: Because the electroplating treatment of copper sinking has to go th...

At this moment, standing at the meeting point of resigning the old and welcoming the new, in 2021, we ushered in the Chinese "astronauts" soaring in the universe, ushered in the green waters and green mountains of the first year of "Double Carbon", ushered in The Communist Party of China has its centenary birthday, but we also ushered in the heavy rains in the Central Plains and the help of the epidemic under the raging epidemic... Yes, the great changes unseen in a century are accelerating, and our company has also experienced a magnificent and ups and downs year. It is worth celebrating that we have always adhered to the strategy of "one yuan, consolidating costs, and diversification". We have not only deeply cultivated the PCB supply chain, but also dared to break new tracks. Both the grand blueprint and the current actual results are absolutely politically correct. . In the past year, our company has continued to work hard in the field of PCB materials, based on R&D and innovation, maintaining technology leadership, strengthening technology iterations, and developing and optimizing many mature technologies including hole filling electroplating, pulse electroplating, metal bonding agent, etc. High-end new products continue to create more value for the company and the industry. It is also because of our deep understanding of PCB chemical materials that our equipment has more bright spots than peers in terms of energy saving, stable operation and humanized operation. This kind of overall solution that takes into account the combination of medicine and equipment The program has won the recognition of customers.

Rogers RT/duroid 5870 and 5880 glass microfiber reinforced PTFE composites are designed for exacting stripline and microstrip circuit applications. Today we’re learning what stripline and microstrip line are. Stripline: a banded line that walks in the inner layer and is buried inside the PCB, as shown below The brown part is the conductor, the green part is the PCB insulating dielectric, stripline is the ribbon wire embedded between the two layers of conductors. Because stripline is embedded between two layers of conductors, its electric field distribution is between two conductors (planes) that wrap it, and does not radiate energy or be disturbed by external radiation. but because it is all surrounded by dielectric (dielectric constant is larger than 1), the signal is transmitted slower in stripline than in microstrip line! Microstrip line: a strip line attached to the surface of a PCB layer, as shown below The brown part is the conductor, the green part is the PCB insulating dielectric, and the brown block above is the microstrip line. The light green part is epoxy organic material. Since one side of the microstrip line is exposed to the air (which can form radiation around or be disturbed by radiation around it), and the other side is attached to the PCB insulating dielectric, the electric field formed by it is distributed in the air. The other part is distributed in PCB insulating medium. Its outstanding advantage is that the signal transmission speed in the microstrip line is faster than that in the stripline. Conclusion 1. Microstrip line is a banded wire (signal line) separated from the ground plane with a dielectric. If the thickness, width, and distance between the line and the ground plane are controllable, its characteristic impedance is also controllable. 2. Stripline is a copper strip line placed in the middle of the dielectric between two layers of conductive plane. If the thickness and width of the line, the dielectric constant of the medium and the distance between the two conductive planes are controllable, then the characteristic impedance of the line is also controllable. Impedance calculation of microstrip and Striplines: a. microstrip line Z ={87/[ sqrt (Er+ 1.41)]} ln [5.98 H/(0.8 W+T)] Among them, the W is the line width, the T is the copper thickness of the line, the H is the distance from the line to the reference plane, and the Er is the dielectric constant of the PCB plate material. This formula must be applied at 0.1<(W/H)<2.0 and 1<(Er) to 15. b. stripline Z =[60/ sqrt (Er)] ln {4H/[0.67π(T +0.8W)]} Among them, the H is the distance between the two reference planes, and the line is located in the middle of the two reference planes. This formula must be applied in W/H<0.35 and T/H<0.25.

There are many control points in the whole production process, the board will be broken if there is a little bit of carelessness, the quality problems of PCB are emerging endlessly, this is also a headache to people, because if only one piece has a problem, then most of the devices will also cannot be used. In addition to the above problems, there are also some problems with high potential risks, we have compiled a total of top ten problems, listed here and with some handling experience to share with you 1.【Delamination】 Delamination is a long-standing problem of PCB, steadily ranking the first of the common problems. The causes may be as follows: (1) It is improperly packaged or stored, or affected with damp; (2) Too long time of storage, which exceeds the storage period, PCB board is affected with damp; (3) The supplier’s material or process problems; (4) Poor material selection of design and poor distribution of copper surface. The problem of being affected with damp is easy to happen, Even if you choose a good package, and there is a constant temperature and humidity warehouse, but the transportation and temporary storage process cannot be controlled. But being affected with damp can still be solved, vacuum conductive bags or aluminum foil bags can be a good protection against moisture intrusion, at the same time, it is required to put a humidity indicating card in the packaging bags. If the humidity indicating card is found to exceed the standard before use, it can be solved by baking before putting online, the baking condition is usually 120 degrees, 4H. Common possible causes may include: poor black oxidation, PP or inner board is affected with damp, insufficient PP glue quantity, abnormal pressing, etc.. In order to reduce this kind of problems, special attention should be paid to the management of PCB suppliers to the corresponding processes and reliability tests of delamination. Taking the thermal stress test in the reliability test as an example, the requirement of pass standard of a good factory is no delamination of over 5 times, and confirmation will be conducted in each period of the sample stage and the mass production. However, the pass standard of ordinary factory may only twice, and confirm only once every several months. The simulation mounting IR test can also prevent more outgoing of defective products, which is an essential for an excellent PCB factory. Of course, the PCB design of the design company itself can also bring hidden dangers of delamination. For example, there is often no requirement of the choice of plate Tg, the temperature resistance of ordinary Tg material will be relatively poor. In the era of lead-free becoming a mainstream, the selection of Tg above 145°C is relatively safe. In addition, the open large copper surface and too dense buried via area is also the hidden dangers of PCB separated layer, which need to be avoided in the design. 2.【Poor solderability】 Solderability is also one of the serious proble...
