Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit board printing technology, and in particular to a multi-layer circuit anti-short circuit structure for circuit boards. Background Technology

[0002] When creating conductive circuit patterns on circuit boards using printing methods, limitations often exist in the width and spacing of the lines. Firstly, printing precise lines often requires increasing the mesh count of the stencil; however, a higher mesh count means less ink can be applied, resulting in thinner printed lines that are insufficient for adequate conductivity. Secondly, the fluidity of the conductive ink can cause the lines to widen. When two lines are very close together, they can easily short-circuit.

[0003] The above situation is even more difficult to solve when using multi-layer inks. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: in order to solve the technical problems in the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-layer circuit short-circuit protection structure for circuit boards.

[0006] This invention relates to a multilayer circuit board structure for preventing short circuits. By setting trenches between adjacent conductive lines, when the conductive ink of the conductive lines spreads to the trenches, the conductive ink will expand along the sidewalls of the trenches, or even stop at the edge of the trenches due to surface tension, thereby preventing short circuits. Moreover, this method does not require additional processes; only the process of the protective ink needs to be adjusted, resulting in lower costs.

[0007] Furthermore, the thickness of the protective ink is 10-30 micrometers.

[0008] Furthermore, the width of the trench is 50-300 micrometers.

[0009] Furthermore, the depth of the trench is 10-30 micrometers.

[0010] Furthermore, the thickness of the copper foil is 5-20 micrometers.

[0011] Furthermore, the trench is located at the edge of the circuit board.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] By setting trenches between adjacent conductive lines, when the conductive ink of the conductive lines spreads to the trench, the conductive ink will expand along the sidewall of the trench, and may even stop at the edge of the trench due to surface tension, thus preventing short circuits. Moreover, this method does not require additional processes, only adjustments to the process of the protective ink, resulting in lower costs. Attached Figure Description

By setting the grooves 6 between adjacent conductive lines 5, when the conductive ink of the conductive lines 5 spreads to the grooves 6, the conductive ink will expand along the sidewalls of the grooves 6, and may even stop at the edge of the grooves 6 due to surface tension, thereby preventing short circuits.

[0026] Working principle: By setting a groove 6 between adjacent conductive lines 5, when the conductive ink of the conductive line 5 spreads to the groove 6, the conductive ink will expand along the side wall of the groove 6, and may even stop at the edge of the groove 6 due to surface tension, thereby preventing short circuits.
