Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pre-buried magnetic cores of printed circuit boards, and in particular to a SMT mounting process for a magnetic core of a planar transformer. Background Art

[0002] PCB planar transformer is a special transformer structure, which arranges the main and secondary windings in different PCB layers, so that the magnetic circuit of the transformer is completely located inside the PCB board, thus forming a planar structure. This design not only saves space, but also improves the performance and reliability of the transformer.

[0003] Specifically, in a DC-DC converter, if the output is required to be isolated from the input, or if multiple sets of output voltages are required, an isolation transformer must be used. The current development trend of switching power supplies is higher efficiency, smaller size, and lighter weight, especially for module power supplies used in aerospace, automotive electronics and other application fields, which have more stringent requirements. However, traditional isolation transformers have seriously restricted the further development of switching power supplies in terms of efficiency, volume, and weight. At the same time, since the main parameters involved in the transformer, such as voltage, current, frequency, ratio, temperature, leakage inductance, loss, and external dimensions, are very complex; therefore, there has been no ready-made transformer available for selection like other electronic components, and it is often necessary to go through tedious calculations to select the core and winding wire. Moreover, the winding method of the winding also has a great influence on the performance of the transformer. In addition, many important parameters of the transformer are not easy to measure, which brings a certain degree of blindness to the use, and it is difficult to achieve satisfactory results in terms of frequency response, leakage inductance, volume, and heat dissipation.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, PCB planar transformers have been widely used. This type of transformer usually uses a planar RM, EI, PQ or EE high-frequency power ferrite core, which has low core loss at high frequencies of 200~700kHz. In terms of winding structure, it is made of multi-layer printed circuit boards, which can meet the design requirements of high power density and miniaturization of DC-DC converters. At present, in the installation process of transformer cores, manual mounting is required in most cases, which has a great impact on processing efficiency. If the core can be buried and automated assembly can be achieved at the same time, it may provide support for reducing processing costs.

[0005] Based on this, the patent technical document with publication number CN102933040A discloses a method for manufacturing a PCB board with an embedded inductor device, which includes the following steps: Step 1. Provide a ring-shaped magnetic core and a PCB board to be embedded with the magnetic core; Step 2. Open an annular groove at a corresponding position of the PCB board to be embedded with the magnetic core, and drill a plurality of holes at the bottom of the annular groove; Step 3. Place the annular magnetic core in the annular groove, and fix the annular magnetic core in the annular groove by a lamination process; Step 4. Remove the glue from the surface of the magnetic core; Step 5. Form a plurality of first through holes in the corresponding annular groove of the PCB board, and form a plurality of second through holes outside the corresponding annular groove of the PCB board corresponding to the first through holes; Step 6. Copper-plate the first and second through holes, and electrically connect the copper layers in the first and second through holes to form a magnetic core winding, thereby forming an inductor device, and thereby obtaining a PCB board with an embedded inductor device; Step 7. Test the inductance value by testing the inductor device, and record it.

[0006] However, the manufacturing method of the PCB board with embedded inductor devices disclosed above still has the technical problems of low pre-embedded magnetic core yield and low assembly process efficiency. Specifically, in the existing technology, the specific process is: using a flat-bottom milling cutter to open an annular groove at the corresponding position of the PCB board where the magnetic core is embedded, and drilling four holes at the bottom of the annular groove; and the depth of the annular groove is 0.2mm greater than the thickness of the magnetic core, that is, the magnetic core is lower than the board surface when embedded in the PCB; finally, the annular magnetic core is placed in the annular groove, and the annular magnetic core is fixed in the annular groove through a lamination process. In this process, the lamination process is prone to glue flow, which affects the pre-embedded magnetic core yield. In addition, in the lamination process, if the pressure on the magnetic core is too small, the magnetic core will not be embedded in place; if the magnetic core is too large, the magnetic core is also easily compressed and broken. Therefore, the broken magnetic core needs to be disassembled and reassembled, which affects the assembly process efficiency. Summary of the invention
