[0054] The following is combined Figures 1-1 to 7 The embodiments of this application are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0055] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the use of terms such as "center," "middle," "longitudinal," "transverse," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "axial," "radial," and "circumferential" to indicate orientation or positional relationships is based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and is only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application. Furthermore, features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0056] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0057] This application relates to a PCB, which includes a multilayer circuit board 100. The multilayer circuit board 100 has vias, which are formed into stepped holes of different inner diameters by controlled-depth drilling. Specifically, the vias are provided with non-conductive layers 101 and conductive layers 102. The conductive layers 102 are provided in at least two layers, and the non-conductive layers 101 are provided in at least three layers. The non-conductive layers 101 and conductive layers 102 are alternately arranged, and the non-conductive layers 101 separate the conductive layers 102 to prevent electrical series connection.
[0058] Understandably, the non-conductive layer 101 is formed by vacuum filling the vias with non-conductive resin to separate different networks. The conductive layer 102 is formed by vacuum filling the vias with conductive paste to make different networks conductive, so as to realize the formation of multiple different interlayer network connections within a single via, and to achieve a network connectivity structure with multiple network traces within a single via.
[0059] Furthermore, in conjunction with the appendix Figure 2-1 In the example shown, a cross-layer conductive structure 103 is provided in the via. The cross-layer conductive structure 103 is formed by vacuum filling the via with conductive paste. The cross-layer conductive structure 103 penetrates at least one non-conductive layer 101. The PCB achieves cross-layer network conduction through the cross-layer conductive structure 103.
[0060] In some examples, when the cross-layer conductive structure 103 penetrates at least two non-conductive layers 101, it also penetrates at least one conductive layer 102. To prevent network connectivity between the cross-layer conductive structure 103 and the penetrated conductive layer 102, a non-conductive isolation structure is provided in the via. This non-conductive isolation structure is disposed in the borehole formed by penetrating the non-conductive layer 101 and the conductive layer 102. The non-conductive isolation structure is shaped like a cylinder, and the cross-layer conductive structure 103 penetrates through it. In this case, the non-conductive isolation structure isolates the cross-layer conductive structure 103 from the penetrated conductive layer 102.
[0061] It is understandable that a hole penetrating the non-conductive layer 101 and the conductive layer 102 is obtained by controlled-depth drilling, and then the hole is filled by vacuum plugging and curing with non-conductive resin. Finally, a hole for arranging the cross-layer conductive structure 103 is obtained by controlled-depth drilling.
[0062] In some examples, combined with appendix Figure 2-1 and attached Figure 2-2 In the example shown, the conductive layer 102 in the PCB via is connected to the electroplated layer 104 on the surface of the multilayer circuit board 100 via a cross-layer conductive structure 103. In this case, holes are drilled to the conductive layer 102 to be connected across layers using controlled-depth drilling. After the cross-layer conductive structure 103 is placed, the surface of the multilayer circuit board 100 is subjected to outer layer electroplating and pattern etching to achieve cross-layer network connectivity, thereby achieving overall board network connectivity.
[0063] Furthermore, if the cross-layer conductive structure 103 penetrates both the non-conductive layer 101 and the conductive layer 102, a non-conductive isolation structure is also required.
[0064] In some examples, combined with appendix Figure 3-1 and attached Figure 3-2 In the example shown, two conductive layers 102 of different layers in a PCB via are connected by a cross-layer conductive structure 103. In this case, a hole is drilled to the conductive layer 102 to be connected by controlled-depth drilling. The cross-layer conductive structure 103 is then arranged. One end of the cross-layer conductive structure 103 is connected to the conductive layer 102 to which the hole is drilled, and a stepped hole is drilled at the other end of the cross-layer conductive structure 103 by controlled-depth drilling. The hole is then vacuum-sealed and cured with conductive paste, forming a conductive layer 102 at the other end of the cross-layer conductive structure 103, thereby achieving cross-layer network connectivity.
[0065] Furthermore, if the cross-layer conductive structure 103 penetrates both the non-conductive layer 101 and the conductive layer 102, a non-conductive isolation structure is also required.
[0066] In some examples, two conductive layers 102 of different layers in a PCB via are connected by a cross-layer conductive structure 103 network. At least two such structures are provided to achieve cross-layer network connectivity at least two locations in the via.
[0067] In some examples, the PCB can also be designed to: combine with... Figure 4-1 and attached Figure 4-2 In the example shown, different conductive layers 102 are designed in the vias to achieve cross-layer network connectivity through cross-layer conductive structures 103, and another conductive layer 102 is connected to the electroplated layer 104 on the surface of the multilayer circuit board 100 through the cross-layer conductive structures 103. It can be understood that the electroplated layer 104 also serves as a conductive layer 102.
[0068] It should be noted that the appendix Figure 5 To be continued Figure 7 The structure shown is the form of a via in some examples.
[0069] The manufacturing process of this application is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following description is only an illustrative example and not a specific limitation of this application.
[0070] This application relates to a PCB via fabrication process that enables multiple traces to be routed through a single via on a PCB, significantly increasing the wiring density of the product. Specifically, a via is drilled at the same location on a multilayer circuit board to achieve multiple interlayer network connections through a single via, enabling multiple network traces to be routed.
[0071] Before proceeding with the manufacturing process, a multi-layer circuit board is first made, combined with the attached... Figure 1-1 and attached Figure 1-2 The example shown illustrates the following manufacturing process.
[0072] S1, Drilling through holes on a multilayer circuit board, with a drill bit diameter of A.
[0073] S2, electroplating inside the through hole is conductive.
[0074] S3, vacuum plugging and curing of the through holes with non-conductive resin, the non-conductive resin fills the through holes.
[0075] S4. Drill a stepped hole 1 with controlled depth from one end of the through hole. The drill bit diameter is B1, and B1 > A. The drilling depth is determined according to the network. The drilling depth is less than the depth of the through hole. Excess non-conductive resin in the through hole is removed by controlled depth drilling.
[0076] S5, Vacuum plugging and curing of the stepped hole 1 with conductive paste, the conductive paste filling the drilled hole obtained in step S4.
[0077] S6, drill a stepped hole 2 at stepped hole 1 with controlled depth. The drill bit diameter is B2, and B2 > B1. The drilling depth is determined according to the network. The drilling depth is less than the drilling depth in step S4. Remove excess conductive paste in stepped hole 1 by using a hollow drilling method.
[0078] S7, vacuum plug the stepped hole 2 with non-conductive resin and cure it, the non-conductive resin fills the hole obtained in step S6.
[0079] S8, perform steps S4 to S7 at least N times to control the depth of drilling step hole 2N+1 and step hole 2(N+1), with a drill bit diameter of B. 2N+1 and B 2(N+1) And B 2(N+1) >B 2N+1 Where N≥1, N is an integer, and the value of N depends on the design requirements of the PCB.
[0080] Furthermore, after the PCB is filled with vias, the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to obtain the surface electroplating layer.
[0081] Understandably, after step S4, a non-conductive layer is obtained. After step S6, a conductive layer is obtained on top of the non-conductive layer, and the conductive layer achieves network connectivity. Therefore, in step S8, each time steps S4 to S7 are performed, a non-conductive layer and a conductive layer are obtained, achieving network connectivity and layering. By repeating steps S4 to S7, the obtained borehole has an alternating structure of conductive and non-conductive layers, forming a multi-layered network connectivity structure, enabling multiple lines to run through a single borehole.
[0082] It should be noted that after obtaining a non-conductive layer in step S4, non-conductive resin is deeply filled into the stepped hole to isolate the conductive layer obtained in step S6 from the electroplated layer on the inner wall of the via. Alternatively, after obtaining a non-conductive layer in step S4, non-conductive resin is filled into the stepped hole, and then steps S5 and S6 are performed, which can also achieve the isolation between the conductive layer obtained in step S6 and the electroplated layer on the inner wall of the via.
[0083] Combined with appendix Figure 1-1 and attached Figure 1-2 In the example shown, after completing steps S4 to S7, stepped via 1 and stepped via 2 are obtained. In step S8, steps S4 to S7 are performed twice to obtain stepped via 3, stepped via 4, stepped via 5, and stepped via 6. A total of three conductive layers and four non-conductive layers are obtained from the PCB vias.
[0084] In one implementation, after completing step S8, step S9 is performed. Specifically, in step S9, the depth of the borehole is controlled to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1, obtaining borehole 1, where i ≥ 1, i is an integer, the drill bit diameter is C, and C < B. 2i-1 .
[0085] The drilling depth in step S9 is determined according to the network, and the drill hole 1 can obtain an annular concave area at the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1, and the drill hole 1 is vacuum plugged and cured with non-conductive resin.
[0086] Further, in step S10, a controlled-depth drill hole is drilled to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1. The drilling depth is determined according to the network to obtain hole 2. The drill diameter is D, and D < C. The hole 2 is then vacuum plugged and cured with conductive paste.
[0087] It is understandable that after the non-conductive resin filled in step S9 is cured, a non-conductive isolation structure in the PCB is obtained through controlled-depth drilling in step 10, and after the conductive paste filled in step S10 is cured, a cross-layer conductive structure is obtained.
[0088] To ensure network connectivity between the cross-layer conductive structure and the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1, the depth of drill hole 2 is greater than the depth of drill hole 1. This ensures that during controlled-depth drilling of drill hole 2, the non-conductive resin adhering to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1 is removed, thus ensuring full conductivity between the cross-layer conductive structure and the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1.
[0089] Combined with appendix Figure 1-3 and attached Figure 1-4 In the example shown, step S9 involves drilling to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2, and step S10 involves drilling to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2, with the drilling depth in step S10 being greater than the drilling depth in step S9.
[0090] In some examples, after completing step S10, the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated, and the surface pattern of the multilayer circuit board is etched to form an electroplated layer on the surface of the multilayer circuit board. The conductive layer of the stepped via 2i-1 is connected to the electroplated layer network on the surface of the multilayer circuit board through a cross-layer conductive structure, thereby achieving a complete network conductive connection of the entire board. (See attached figure.) Figure 1-5 and attached Figure 2-1 The example shown is a PCB where the conductive layer in the via is connected to the electroplated layer through a cross-layer conductive structure network.
[0091] Regarding the process of step S10, as an alternative, it can also be designed as follows: when drilling to the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1, further drill to the non-conductive layer below the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1. In this case, combined with the attached... Figure 2-1In the example shown, due to the isolation of the next non-conductive layer, the cross-layer conductive structure formed by the conductive paste can achieve cross-layer network connectivity between the conductive layer of the stepped hole 2i-1 and other conductive layers.
[0092] In one implementation, after completing step S10, step S11 is performed. Step S11 involves performing step S8 at least once, i.e., performing steps S4 to S7 at least once, and the number of repetitions depends on the PCB design requirements. In this case, after achieving cross-layer network connectivity using cross-layer conductive structures in the vias, a multi-layer network connectivity structure is further obtained.
[0093] Furthermore, after completing step S11, the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to achieve the overall network conductivity connection.
[0094] Combined with appendix Figure 3-1 In the example shown, step S8 is performed once in step S11, where N=1, resulting in a conductive layer and a non-conductive layer, with the conductive layer connected to the interlayer conductive structure network. (Appendix) Figure 3-2 In the example shown, step S8 is performed twice in step S11, where N=1, to obtain two conductive layers and two non-conductive layers, with the conductive and non-conductive layers alternating.
[0095] In one implementation, after completing step S11, step S12 is performed. Specifically, step S12 involves performing steps S8, S9, and S10 at least once, and the number of repetitions depends on the PCB design requirements. This results in at least two cross-layer conductive structures within the vias, achieving at least two cross-layer network connections when layered network connectivity is achieved using conductive layers.
[0096] Furthermore, after completing step S12, the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to achieve the overall network conductivity connection.
[0097] Combined with appendix Figure 4-1 In the example shown, step S12 is performed once, and a network connectivity structure with two cross-layer conductive structures is obtained by drilling the PCB.
[0098] In some examples, when step S12 is performed on at least both sides, at least one step S8 is performed during the phase after the previous step S12 is completed and before the next step S12 begins, thereby realizing a hierarchical network conduction structure between two adjacent cross-layer network conduction structures.
[0099] Combined with appendix Figure 4-2 In the example shown, step S12 is performed twice, with step S8 performed once between the two steps S12, and N = 1.
[0100] As one implementation method, if the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated after completing steps S1 to S8, then without further fabricating a cross-layer conductive structure, a multilayer layered network conductive structure can be formed in the drill holes of the PCB. (See attached diagram.) Figure 5 In the example shown, step S8 is performed three times from step S4 to step S7, and based on step hole 1 and step hole 2, step hole 3, step hole 4, step hole 5, step hole 6, step hole 7 and step hole 8 (step holes 1-8, not labeled in the figure) are further obtained.
[0101] In one implementation, step S4 can also be alternatively designed as follows: drilling stepped holes 1 with controlled depth from both ends of the through hole. In this case, a non-conductive layer is formed in the middle of the through hole, and steps S4 and S5 are performed from the middle of the through hole to both ends. Thus, a structure combining a non-conductive layer and a conductive layer can be obtained from the middle of the through hole to both ends.
[0102] Furthermore, when stepped holes are drilled at controlled depths at both ends of the through hole, step S8 is performed at both ends of the through hole, thereby obtaining a structure of alternating non-conductive and conductive layers from the middle of the through hole to both ends.
[0103] In some examples, when stepped holes are drilled at both ends of a through-hole with controlled depth, steps S8, S9, and S10 are performed on at least one end of the through-hole to obtain a cross-layer conductive structure. Furthermore, steps S8, S9, and S10 are performed at least once, and the number of repetitions depends on the PCB design requirements.
[0104] Combined with appendix Figure 6-1 In the example shown, steps S8, S9 and S10 are performed from the middle of the via to both ends, and the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to obtain a structure in which the conductive layers at both ends of the via are connected to the electroplated layer through a cross-layer conductive structure network.
[0105] Combined with appendix Figure 6-2 In the example shown, steps S8, S9, S10 and S11 are performed from the middle of the via to both ends, and the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to obtain a structure in which different conductive layers at both ends of the via are interconnected through a cross-layer conductive structure.
[0106] Combined with appendix Figure 6-3 In the example shown, steps S8, S9 and S10 are performed at one end of the via, step S8 is performed at the other end of the via, and the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to obtain a structure in which one end of the via has an internal conductive layer connected to the electroplated layer through a cross-layer conductive structure network, and the other end of the via has a structure in which multiple conductive layers are connected by a layered network.
[0107] Combined with appendix Figure 6-4 In the example shown, steps S8, S9, S10 and S11 are performed on one end of the via, and step S8 is performed on the other end of the via. The outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated to obtain a structure in which different conductive layers are connected through a cross-layer conductive structure at one end of the via, and a structure in which multiple conductive layers are connected in a layered network at the other end of the via.
[0108] In some examples, step S8 is performed from the middle of the via towards both ends, but steps S9 and S10 are not performed, and the via does not have a cross-layer conductive structure. (See attached...) Figure 6-5 The example shown illustrates a structure in which both ends of the via are connected by a layered network with multiple conductive layers.
[0109] As one implementation method, when stepped holes are drilled at controlled depths at both ends of the through hole, steps S1 to S4 in the manufacturing process can be replaced as follows.
[0110] S1, Drill through holes on a multilayer circuit board with a drill diameter of A, vacuum plug the through holes with conductive paste and cure it, and the conductive paste fills the through holes.
[0111] S2, drill stepped holes M from both ends of the through hole with controlled depth. The drill bit diameter is E, and E > A. The drilling depth is determined according to the network. The sum of the drilling depths at both ends of the through hole is less than the depth of the through hole. The excess conductive paste in the through hole is removed by hollow drilling, so that a conductive layer can be formed in the middle of the through hole.
[0112] S3, vacuum plugging and curing of non-conductive resin into the stepped hole M, the non-conductive resin filling the stepped hole M.
[0113] S4, drill step hole 1 at step hole M with controlled depth, the drill bit diameter is B1 and B1>E, the drilling depth is determined according to the network, and the excess non-conductive resin in step hole M is removed by empty deep drilling, so that non-conductive layers are formed on both sides of the conductive layer in the middle of the through hole.
[0114] After completing step S4, proceed to steps S5, S6, S7, and S8 to achieve network connectivity and layering. It should be noted that in step S8, when drilling stepped holes at both ends of the through-hole with controlled depth, the number of times N is performed in steps S4 to S7 can be the same or different.
[0115] In some examples, depending on the actual design requirements of the PCB, the processing flow at both ends of the through-hole can be selected from the following options: steps S9 and S10; steps S9, S10, and S11; or steps S9, S10, S11, and S12. It is understood that after the network connection is completed within the drilled holes at both ends of the through-hole, the multilayer circuit board undergoes outer layer electroplating.
[0116] Combined with appendix Figure 7 In the example shown, the via of the PCB has a conductive layer in the middle and non-conductive layers on both sides, and steps S4 to S10 are performed from the middle of the via to both ends. After completion, the outer layer of the multilayer circuit board is electroplated, and the two ends of the via have a structure with an internal conductive layer connected to the electroplated layer through a cross-layer conductive structure network.
