[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the present application proposes a control method for CAF failure of a circuit board 1, the circuit board 1 comprises a copper foil layer 101 and an insulating layer, the insulating layer is arranged between two adjacent copper foil layers 101, the insulating layer comprises an insulating cloth layer 103 and an epoxy resin layer 102 arranged on both sides of the insulating cloth layer 103, in order to realize the electrical connection between the two adjacent copper foil layers 101, a connecting hole 104 is arranged between the two copper foil layers 101, and copper is deposited by electroplating to realize the connection between the two adjacent copper foil layers 101, the process of the circuit board 1 comprises: preparation, pressing, circuit, drilling, copper electroplating, solder mask, text, shape, surface treatment, inspection, packaging, the circuit is formed by etching, the present application combines the process of the circuit board 1 and CAF detection to comprehensively control the CAF failure of the circuit board 1, and the control method is as follows:

[0031] S1, detect the glass fiber looseness and glass fiber hollow of the insulating cloth layer 103 by a microscope, wherein the cloth layer with glass fiber hollow > 30ppm is rejected; in the present application, the insulating cloth layer 103 selects glass fiber cloth, preferably flat yarn or laser cloth, the glass fiber looseness is detected by an optical microscope, the more loose the glass fiber is, the more likely the CAF failure is to occur, the glass fiber cloth layer with compact glass fiber is selected as the raw material of the insulating cloth layer 103, which is beneficial to reduce the possibility of CAF failure of the circuit board 1; and the glass fiber hollow will greatly induce the CAF failure of the circuit board 1, the glass fiber hollow is detected by an electron microscope or an optical microscope, and the glass fiber hollow is ≤ 30ppm.

[0032] S2, increase the line width compensation of the copper foil and improve the etching rate of the copper foil to avoid the formation of copper teeth on the copper foil; the copper foil is preferably RTF copper foil, during the process of etching to form the circuit, copper teeth may be formed on the copper foil due to incomplete etching, the line width compensation is increased as much as possible under the premise of not affecting the resolution of the exposure machine and the line width, and the etching rate is increased, the increase of the etching rate is beneficial to avoid the formation of copper teeth on the copper foil, the large line width compensation can ensure the reliability of the circuit under the condition of large etching rate, the copper teeth are easy to induce the CAF failure of the circuit board 1, and the occurrence of the copper teeth can well control the CAF failure of the circuit board 1;

[0033] S3, drill the circuit board 1 by a drilling equipment; the highest temperature generated during the drilling process of the existing drilling equipment is about 200℃, which has exceeded the TG point of the material, and will damage the resin material in the insulating layer and the insulating cloth layer 103 material, in the present application, low speed (50% to 60% of the conventional speed), low down speed and jump drilling are adopted to avoid damage to the resin material in the insulating layer and the insulating cloth layer 103 material during drilling, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the CAF failure of the circuit board 1.

[0034] S4, monitor the defects of the circuit board 1 through image detection, and repair; the image detection is realized through CCD detection or AOI full detection, defects on the circuit board 1 are detected, the defects include creases, residual copper and the like, the above defects can all induce CAF failure of the circuit board 1, the above defects are detected and repaired, and the purpose of controlling CAF failure of the circuit board 1 can be achieved. The detection means also includes ion contamination test (performed according to IPC-TM-650 2.3.25), to ensure that the cleanliness of the board surface is ≤10 us / cm².

[0035] S5, detecting the circuit board 1 under the environment of 85℃ / 85%RH, and selecting good circuit boards 1 without CAF failure. The application finally also adopts detection means to control CAF failure of the circuit board 1, and the rated voltage is applied on the circuit board 1 under high temperature and high humidity environment, to induce CAF failure of poor circuit boards 1, and remove the poor circuit boards 1, and keep the good circuit boards 1, so as to realize the control of CAF failure of the circuit board 1.

[0036] In the application, the circuit board 1 with CAF failure in the test process is analyzed, and the analysis means specifically includes: slice analysis: slicing the failure sample, and observing the CAF channel shape (such as glass fiber hollow, candle effect). Data comparison: combining the parameters provided by the material supplier (such as glass fiber hollow rate) and the process record, and positioning the failure source.

[0037] Specifically, in the material preparation stage, the application selects high-quality insulating cloth layer 103 with compact glass fiber and glass fiber hollow ≤30ppm as the raw material of the insulating cloth layer 103 of the circuit board 1, so as to inhibit the possibility of CAF failure of the circuit board 1 from the raw material selection stage. The application increases the copper foil line width compensation, increases the etching rate, optimizes the drilling parameters, and performs image full detection on the circuit board 1, to inhibit the possibility of CAF failure of the circuit board 1 in multiple aspects in the process stage. The application monitors CAF failure under high temperature and high humidity environment, induces CAF failure of poor circuit boards 1, removes the poor circuit boards 1, and keeps the good circuit boards 1, so as to realize the control of CAF failure of the circuit board 1.

[0038] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the above S3 includes the following step: S31, inputting each hole position of the circuit board 1 into the drilling equipment; inputting the preset drilling position on the circuit board 1 into the drilling equipment, and the drilling equipment will automatically drill according to the inputted preset drilling position, to form the corresponding hole position.

[0039] S32, determine the basic drilling position, the drilling equipment first forms the basic drilling position; in the initial stage, the hole position at the upper left corner is the basic drilling position, and the basic drilling position is also the first hole position drilled by the drilling equipment on the circuit board 1;

[0040] S33, obtain the interval D between the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position and the basic drilling position, when D is greater than or equal to 7.5mm, the drilling equipment forms the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position; since the customer's demand for the circuit board 1 is different, the hole position interval on the circuit board 1 cannot be controlled by the production end, so different drilling methods should be selected according to the hole position interval when drilling, the method for obtaining the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position is to obtain the adjacent hole position to the right first, when there is no hole position to the right, obtain the adjacent hole position to the bottom, ignore the drilled hole position, and after drilling to the lower right corner, find the adjacent hole position in reverse, until all the hole positions are drilled.

[0041] When D is less than 7.5mm, ignore the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position, obtain the interval D between the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position and the basic drilling position, and repeat the above comparison steps; when D is less than 7.5mm, in order to avoid continuous high temperature damage to the insulating layer material, the method of skipping drilling is adopted, the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position is ignored, and then the hole position adjacent to the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position is found, which is called the second adjacent hole position in the present application, and the interval D between the second adjacent hole position and the basic drilling position is obtained, when D is less than 7.5mm, drilling starts at the second adjacent hole position, when D is less than 7.5mm, the interval D between the hole position adjacent to the second adjacent hole position and the basic drilling position is found again, and the comparison is continued, generally the interval D between the second adjacent hole position and the basic drilling position is greater than or equal to 7.5mm;

[0042] S34, take the just formed hole position as a new basic drilling position, and repeat step S33. The drilled hole position is always ignored, and the required hole is drilled on the preset drilling position on the circuit board 1 through the above method. In the present application, adjacent means the smallest interval, when there are multiple hole positions to the right of the basic drilling position, the hole position with the smallest interval from the basic drilling position is taken as the hole position adjacent to the basic drilling position.

[0043] In some embodiments, the above S32 specifically comprises the following steps: the rotating speed of the drilling head 7 of the drilling equipment is 30000-36000rpm. Low drilling speed is adopted to avoid excessive temperature rise and damage to the insulating layer material of the circuit board 1, and the down-cut rate of the drilling head 7 is about 0.7-1m / min.

[0044] Referring to Figure 4 Figure 5As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments, the drilling device comprises: a rack 15; the rack 15 is the structural basis of the drilling device, and other structures on the drilling device are directly or indirectly connected to the rack 15.

A transverse carriage 3 is movably arranged on the rack 15; the transverse carriage 3 is transversely movable along the rack 15; a drill table is movably arranged on the transverse carriage 3, and a drill bit 7 is arranged on the drill table; the drill table is vertically movable along the transverse carriage 3, thereby driving the drill bit 7 to drill holes on the circuit board 1. A drill bit 7 drive 4 is arranged on the drill table and connected to the drill bit 7; the drill bit 7 drive 4 is used to drive the drill bit 7 to rotate, thereby driving the drill bit 7 to drill holes on the circuit board 1. A limiting piece 9 is installed on the drilling platform 10, and a limiting cavity is arranged in the limiting piece 9, and the circuit board 1 is located in the limiting cavity; the limiting cavity in the limiting piece 9 is used to place the circuit board 1. A pressing piece 8 is arranged on the limiting piece 9 and abuts against the circuit board 1. The pressing piece 8 is used to press the circuit board 1, so as to avoid movement of the circuit board 1 relative to the drilling platform 10 in the process of drilling. Through the longitudinally movable drilling platform 10 and the transversely movable transverse carriage 3, the drill bit 7 can contact any position on the circuit board, so as to drill corresponding holes on the corresponding positions on the circuit board 1.

[0045] In this embodiment, the pressing piece 8 is installed on the limiting piece 9 by a fastener, and the fastener is preferably a screw.

[0046] As shown in the drawings, Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in some embodiments, the drilling device further comprises: a bottom pad layer 19, the bottom pad layer 19 is located at the bottom of the limiting cavity, the circuit board 1 is located in the limiting cavity and above the bottom pad layer 19; the material of the bottom pad layer 19 is a high-density melamine pad, and the bottom pad layer 19 is provided with a blind hole corresponding to a through hole of an aluminum plate layer 17; the aluminum plate layer 17 is arranged in the limiting cavity and above the circuit board 1, and the aluminum plate layer 17 is provided with a through hole matched with the hole of the circuit board 1. The inner diameters of the blind hole and the through hole are slightly larger than the outer diameter of the drill bit 7.
