Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronics, and in particular to a circuit board and a camera module. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the process of manufacturing a printed circuit board (PCB), in order to improve the mechanical stability of the PCB, shield interference, improve heat dissipation performance, or reduce the impedance of the ground wire, a copper plating process is performed on the back surface of the substrate layer (i.e., the surface facing away from the trace layer), thereby forming a full copper layer or other metal layer on the back surface of the substrate layer.
[0003] However, because the substrate layer is usually made of a high polymer material, and the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal (e.g., copper) on the back surface of the substrate layer is different from the thermal expansion coefficient of the substrate layer, when reflow soldering is performed, the different amounts of thermal expansion between the substrate layer and the metal layer will cause thermal stress to be generated, and the uneven distribution of the thermal stress will cause the PCB to warp, which not only affects the appearance quality of the PCB, but also can affect the placement accuracy and soldering reliability of SMT components (surface mount components). SUMMARY

[0041] To solve the technical problem that the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion of the substrate layer 1 and the metal layer 3 on the back thereof in the prior art easily causes the circuit board to warp and deform, the present application provides a circuit board and a camera module, which is provided with a stress reduction area 4 on the metal layer 3 on the back of the substrate layer 1. Since the coefficient of thermal expansion of the stress reduction area 4 is smaller than that of the metal layer 3, the thermal stress of the stress reduction area 4 is smaller than that of other areas of the metal layer 3, thereby reducing the overall coefficient of thermal expansion of the metal layer 3, limiting the expansion deformation amount of the metal layer 3, reducing the overall size change of the metal layer 3 due to thermal expansion when the temperature changes, and ensuring the deformation matching degree of the metal layer 3 and the substrate layer 1 when the temperature changes, thereby avoiding stress concentration and material damage of the circuit board due to inconsistent thermal expansion, and meeting the welding assembly and use requirements of the product.
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 The first aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a circuit board, which comprises a substrate layer 1, a wiring layer 2 and a metal layer 3. The substrate layer 1 has a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 facing away from each other, which are respectively used to connect with the wiring layer 2 and the metal layer 3, as shown in Figure 1 .
[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the wiring layer 2 is arranged on the first surface 11, which is the front surface of the substrate layer 1, and can connect multiple electrical elements on the front surface of the circuit board together to form a complete circuit path, so that the current and signals can be smoothly transmitted in the circuit board. The wiring layer 2 can be made of copper foil, aluminum foil or silver foil, etc. after etching; since copper foil has good electrical conductivity and relatively low price, it is preferred to use copper foil as the material for preparing the wiring layer 2.
[0044] It should be noted that a solder mask layer 6 is also arranged above the wiring layer 2, which can only expose the pads in the wiring layer 2, and provide insulation protection for the wiring layer 2 through the solder mask layer 6 to prevent short circuit outside the circuit board and ensure the normal operation of the circuit.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the metal layer 3 is arranged on the second surface 12, which is the back surface of the substrate layer 1, and since the metal material has high strength and toughness, arranging it on the back surface of the substrate layer 1 can enhance the strength of the entire structure. At the same time, the metal layer 3 can also be used as a ground layer to provide a stable potential reference point for the circuit board, which helps to reduce noise and interference.
[0046] The metal layer 3 is provided with a stress reduction area 4, and the thermal expansion coefficient of the stress reduction area 4 is less than that of the metal layer 3. The stress reduction area 4 can reduce the thermal stress and thermal expansion deformation degree of the metal layer 3 as a whole during temperature changes (such as during reflow soldering operation); it can ensure the deformation matching degree of the metal layer 3 and the substrate layer 1 when the temperature changes, thereby avoiding stress concentration and material damage of the circuit board due to inconsistent thermal expansion, and meeting the welding assembly and use requirements of the product.
[0047] It should be noted that the stress reduction area 4 can reduce the thermal stress of the area on the metal layer 3 corresponding to the position of the stress reduction area 4, and the stress reduction area 4 can be formed by coating or pasting a material with a small thermal expansion coefficient on the metal layer 3 or setting a hollow area on the metal layer 3.
[0048] When the stress reduction area 4 is formed by coating or pasting a material with a small thermal expansion coefficient on the metal layer 3, since the material with a small thermal expansion coefficient expands less when heated, when the stress reduction area 4 formed by such material is arranged on the metal layer 3, it can form a certain "thermal expansion and cold contraction" compensation mechanism with the metal layer 3, which helps to reduce the deformation of the metal layer 3 due to thermal expansion, because the stress reduction area 4 will produce a certain constraint effect on the metal layer 3 when it expands, thereby limiting the deformation range of the metal layer 3, as shown in Figures 1 to 5 .
[0049] When the stress relief zone 4 is formed by setting the hollowed-out area on the metal layer 3, the stress relief zone 4 does not have metal material that can expand, and the thermal expansion coefficient of the stress relief zone 4 is considered to be zero, which is equivalent to introducing a relief area in the metal layer 3. These relief areas can provide additional deformation space when other metal materials of the metal layer 3 are thermally expanded, thereby dispersing and relieving the stress concentration of the metal layer 3 caused by thermal expansion. At the same time, the hollowed-out area can also act as a heat dissipation channel to accelerate the cooling process of the metal layer 3, further reducing the risk of thermal expansion deformation, as shown in Figures 6 to 7 .
[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, the metal layer 3 and the wiring layer 2 can be made of the same material, preferably copper material, which can improve the manufacturing efficiency of the circuit board. Since copper has high thermal conductivity, it can effectively conduct heat from the heating element to the surrounding environment. The wiring layer 2 on the front side of the substrate layer 1 can act as a heat conduction path to help disperse and dissipate the heat generated by the element. At the same time, the copper metal layer 3 on the back side of the substrate layer 1 can also act as a heat dissipation layer to further enhance the thermal management effect of the circuit board, which is crucial for improving the reliability and prolonging the service life of the circuit board.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the stress relief zone 4 includes one or more ink areas 41, which are stacked on the side of the metal layer 3 away from the substrate layer 1. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of the ink material is less than that of the metal material (such as copper) in the metal layer 3, the cured ink area 41 can form a thermal expansion and contraction compensation mechanism for the metal layer 3. By restricting the deformation range of the metal layer 3 through the ink area 41 when the metal layer 3 expands, the warping deformation of the circuit board is reduced.
[0052] It should be noted that according to the thermal stress distribution and thermal expansion deformation characteristics of the metal layer 3, the solder resist ink is applied to part of the metal layer 3, and the cured solder resist ink forms one or more stress relief zones 4 with a certain thickness on the back of the metal layer 3. The area without solder resist ink (i.e. the area without ink area 41) is a bare copper area. By limiting the thermal expansion deformation of part of the metal layer 3 through one or more ink areas 41, the expansion deformation of the entire metal layer 3 is matched with the expansion deformation of the substrate layer 1, and the empty soldering of the components caused by the warping deformation of the circuit board during reflow soldering is reduced.
[0053] When the metal layer 3 on the back side of the substrate layer 1 is a full copper layer, if the temperature control of the high-temperature processing process (such as reflow soldering, wave soldering, etc.) is not proper or the heating rate is too fast, it will intensify the internal stress of the material, leading to deformation. The central region of the metal layer 3 may produce greater deformation due to more uniform or more intense heating, thereby causing the middle part of the circuit board to warp upwards.
[0054] To solve the above problems, in some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the projection of the stress-reducing area 4 on the metal layer 3 is located in the middle of the metal layer 3, which can limit the deformation of the central region of the metal layer 3, thereby reducing the deformation stress (i.e. thermal stress) and the degree of deformation of the central region of the metal layer 3 and the circuit board.
[0055] When the metal layer 3 on the back of the substrate layer 1 is provided with a recess or a through groove, the metal material around the recess or the through groove tends to have the characteristic of large middle deformation and small edge deformation (the edge includes the edge close to the outer side of the metal layer 3 and the edge close to the area of the recess or the through groove), which is easy to cause uneven deformation of the circuit board and affect the welding of components.
[0056] To solve the above problems, in some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 4 to 5 , the circuit board is provided with a recess 5 to facilitate the assembly of devices on the circuit board, and a plurality of ink areas 41 are sequentially arranged on the metal layer 3 along the outer periphery of the recess 5, which can avoid the problem of large middle deformation and small edge deformation of the metal material around the recess 5, make the deformation degree of the metal material around the recess 5 consistent, and match the deformation degree of the substrate layer 1, thereby avoiding the warping deformation of the circuit board around the recess 5.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 5 , the stress-reducing area 4 includes a plurality of ink areas 41, and the adjacent two ink areas 41 have a preset interval, which can avoid the stress concentration inside the ink area 41 due to the large area of the single ink area 41, and the preset gap between the adjacent ink areas 41 provides a deformation space for the ink area 41, which can provide additional deformation space when the ink area 41 is heated and expanded, thereby dispersing and relieving the stress concentration of the stress-reducing area 4 itself caused by thermal expansion.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present application, when the stress-reducing area 4 is concentrated in the central region of the metal layer 3, the preset interval between the adjacent two ink areas 41 is as shown in Figure 2 L1 and Figure 3 L2, which is the net distance (i.e. the distance between the outermost edges) between the adjacent two ink areas 41.
[0059] In some other embodiments of the present application, when the central region of the metal layer 3 is provided with a recess 5, and a plurality of ink areas 41 are distributed around the outer periphery of the recess 5, the interval between the adjacent two ink areas 41 is as shown in Figure 5 L3 and L4, which can keep the appropriate lateral or longitudinal spacing between the adjacent two ink areas 41.
[0060] It should be noted that the preset interval can be set according to the thermal stress distribution, heat dissipation requirement and material characteristics of the stress relief area 4, as long as the thermal stress of the metal layer 3 can be effectively relieved, and the purpose of the present application can be achieved.
[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, the preset interval is greater than or equal to 0.8 mm, and preferably 1 mm. The preset interval can form a reserved deformation space between the adjacent two ink areas 41, and can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of preparing two or more adjacent ink areas 41 by coating solder resist ink.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41 includes one or more curved surfaces. The outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41 can avoid the existence of sharp edges, and can avoid the stress concentration on the outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41, thereby affecting the thermal stress relieving effect of the ink area 41 on the metal layer 3.
[0063] It should be noted that the outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41 can be a cylindrical surface (such as the first curved surface 411 in Figure 2 ) or other curved surfaces (such as the second curved surface 412 in Figure 3 ). The cross section of the ink area 41 is in a symmetrical shape such as a circle or an ellipse, so as to ensure the uniform distribution of thermal stress.
[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 3 , the outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41 further includes one or more flat surfaces 413, and both ends of the flat surface 413 are transitionally connected with curved surfaces (i.e. the second curved surface 412). The cross section of the ink area 41 can be a polygonal structure (such as a rectangle, a square, a triangle, etc.) with rounded corners. The polygonal structure is preferably a regular polygon, and the corners of the polygonal structure are smoothly transitioned by the second curved surface 412, so as to avoid the stress concentration on the outer peripheral surface of the ink area 41.
[0065] It should be noted that the cross-sectional size of each ink area 41 can be set according to the thermal stress distribution, heat dissipation requirement and material characteristics of the stress relief area 4, as long as the thermal stress of the metal layer 3 can be effectively relieved, and the purpose of the present application can be achieved.
[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional size of the ink area 41 is 0.6-1.5 mm. Specifically, when the cross-sectional shape of the ink area 41 is a circle, if the ink area 41 is arranged in the central region of the metal layer 3, the diameter of the cross-sectional shape is preferably 1-1.2 mm; if the ink area 41 is arranged on the outer periphery of the recess 5, the diameter of the cross-sectional shape is preferably 0.6-1.2 mm; when the cross-sectional shape of the ink area 41 is a rectangle, the side length of the ink area 41 is preferably 1.2-1.5 mm.
[0067] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figures 6 to 7 , the stress relief area 4 includes a plurality of hollow structures 42 arranged on the metal layer 3, which are used to form a plurality of hollow areas on the metal layer 3, and the hollow areas can provide additional deformation space when other metal materials of the metal layer 3 expand due to heat, thereby dispersing and relieving the stress concentration of the metal layer 3 caused by thermal expansion.
[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 , the stress relief area 4 is uniformly distributed on the metal layer 3, and the uniformly distributed stress relief area 4 can effectively disperse and relieve the stress concentration in the metal layer 3. When the metal layer 3 is subjected to external load or temperature change, the stress will no longer be limited to a local area, but can be more evenly distributed on the entire metal layer 3, which can relieve the warping deformation of the metal layer 3 and the circuit board during soldering assembly.
[0069] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the plurality of ink areas 41 are uniformly arranged in the central area of the metal layer 3, which can uniformly disperse the thermal stress of the central area of the metal layer 3, and avoid the central part of the metal layer 3 from being raised upward due to thermal expansion during heating.
[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 5 , the plurality of ink areas 41 are uniformly distributed on the outer periphery of the recess 5, which can uniformly disperse the stress of the metal layer 3 material on the outer periphery of the recess 5, and avoid the metal plate body on the outer periphery of the recess 5 from being unevenly deformed (i.e., the central plate body is deformed greatly and the two side edges are deformed slightly).
[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of hollow structures 42 are uniformly arranged on the metal layer 3, so that the metal layer 3 is in the form of a grid copper plate, which can uniformly disperse the thermal stress generated on the metal layer 3 due to heating, change the entire copper surface on the back of the substrate layer 1 to a grid copper, improve the flatness of the circuit board plane 413, reduce thermal stress, and thus improve the deformation of the PCB.
[0072] It should be noted that when the stress relief area 4 is arranged on the metal layer 3, the via (VIA) on the circuit board should be avoided, so as to reduce the deformation of the circuit board while avoiding the influence of the arrangement of the stress relief area 4 on the assembly and normal use of the circuit board.
[0073] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7The second aspect of the embodiments of the present application provides a camera module including the circuit board described in the above embodiments. Due to the presence of the stress reduction area 4, the warping deformation generated in the process of processing the circuit board can be reduced, which is beneficial to realize the welding assembly of the components on the circuit board. The master control chip, the image sensor, the lens and other key components can be efficiently and reliably connected by using the circuit board. The signals between these components can be efficiently transmitted through the circuit board, so as to ensure that the camera module can work normally.
[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, the circuit board can be a radio frequency printed circuit board (RF PCB) capable of processing high-speed radio frequency signals, thereby meeting the requirements of high-speed data transmission and signal processing in the camera module and providing stable signal support for high-quality image and video transmission.
