Detailed Implementation

[0082] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0083] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0084] In the description of this disclosure, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "communication" 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 direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0085] In embodiments of this disclosure, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0086] In this disclosure, the terms "exemplarily" or "for example" are used to indicate that something is an example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplarily" or "for example" in this disclosure should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of terms such as "exemplarily" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts by way of example.

[0087] "At least one of A, B and C" has the same meaning as "at least one of A, B or C", both including the following combinations of A, B and C: only A, only B, only C, combinations of A and B, combinations of A and C, combinations of B and C, and combinations of A, B and C.

[0088] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0089] In related technologies, direct-bonding copper (DBC) substrates mainly consist of a three-layer structure: a circuit layer, an insulating layer, and a metal layer stacked sequentially. The circuit layer is primarily used for connection to components such as chips and resistors. The insulating layer provides insulation between the circuit layer and the metal layer. The metal layer is used for connection to external heat exchange devices. During the assembly of electronic components from the DBC substrate, the metal layer needs to connect to the external heat exchange devices. Due to the complex structure and weight of the DBC substrate, and the need for the metal layer to connect to external heat exchange devices, the assembly process of the DBC substrate is complex.

[0090] To address the aforementioned technical problems, some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board.

[0091] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110, which includes a circuit layer 111 and a heat exchange layer 113. The heat exchange layer is stacked on the circuit layer and is in contact with the circuit layer.

[0092] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments. By including a circuit layer 111 and a heat exchange layer 113 in the circuit board 110, the heat exchange layer 113 is integrated into the circuit board 110. This eliminates the need to set a heat exchange structure in the electronic component 100 (as shown in FIG. 3) and to connect the circuit board 110 with the heat exchange structure of the electronic component 100. This simplifies the connection process between the circuit board 110 and the heat exchange structure of the electronic component 100 and eliminates the need for a connection layer between the circuit board 110 and the heat exchange structure. Therefore, the assembled electronic component 100 can be lighter and the cost can be reduced, making the structure more compact.

[0093] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2, the heat exchange layer 113 includes a heat exchange body 113a and a heat exchange protrusion 113b. The heat exchange body 113a is stacked on and in contact with the circuit layer 111, and the heat exchange protrusion 113b is installed on the side of the heat exchange body 113a away from the circuit layer 111.

[0094] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments. By providing a heat exchange layer 113 including a heat exchange body 113a and a heat exchange protrusion 113b, the heat exchange layer 113 can have good heat exchange capability, which can ensure the reliability of the circuit board 110 during operation.

[0095] In some embodiments, the heat exchange protrusion 113b includes at least one of a heat exchange column and a heat exchange fin.

[0096] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments, which can further improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchange protrusion 113b by the structural arrangement of the heat exchange protrusion 113b.

[0097] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the heat exchange layer 113 is made of metal.

[0098] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110, in which at least a portion of the heat exchange layer 113 is made of metal, thereby giving the heat exchange body 113a good support and thermal conductivity.

[0099] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 and FIG2, the circuit board 110 further includes a thermally conductive insulating layer 112, which is located between the circuit layer 111 and the heat exchange layer 113.

[0100] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110. By including a thermally conductive insulating layer 112 in the circuit board 110, insulation can be achieved between the circuit layer 111 and the heat exchange layer 113, and the heat of the circuit layer 111 can be transferred to the heat exchange layer 113 to facilitate heat exchange.

[0101] In some embodiments, the thermally conductive insulating layer 112 includes insulating adhesive, and the heat exchange layer 113 is connected to the circuit layer 111 through the insulating adhesive.

[0102] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110, which, through the application of insulating adhesive, makes the connection between the circuit layer 111 and the thermally conductive insulating layer 112, as well as the connection between the heat exchange layer 113 and the thermally conductive insulating layer 112, simpler and the connection process more streamlined.

[0103] In some embodiments, the peel strength of the insulating adhesive is greater than or equal to 1 N / mm.

[0104] For example, the peel strength of insulating adhesive includes 1N / mm, 2N / mm, 3N / mm, 4N / mm, 5N / mm, etc.

[0105] If the peel strength of the insulating adhesive is less than 1 N / mm, the insulating adhesive cannot meet the connection requirements with the heat exchange layer 113 and the circuit layer 111, and the reliability of the circuit board 110 is poor.

[0106] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110. By setting the peel strength of the insulating adhesive, the insulating adhesive can have a better bonding effect, reducing the risk of connection failure between the circuit layer 111 and the thermally conductive insulating layer 112, and between the heat exchange layer 113 and the thermally conductive insulating layer 112.

[0107] In some embodiments, the breakdown voltage of the insulating adhesive is greater than or equal to 20 kV / mm.

[0108] For example, the breakdown voltage of insulating adhesive includes 20kV / mm, 30kV / mm, 40kV / mm, 50kV / mm, 60kV / mm, etc.

[0109] If the breakdown voltage of the insulating adhesive is less than 20kV / mm, the insulating performance of the adhesive is poor, which can easily cause the signal of the line layer 111 to be transmitted to the external circuit, affecting the signal transmission effect.

[0110] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments. By setting the breakdown voltage of the insulating adhesive, the insulating adhesive has a good insulation effect, which reduces the risk of insulation failure between the circuit layer 111 and the heat exchange layer 113 and ensures the reliability of the circuit board 110.

[0111] In some embodiments, the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive is greater than or equal to 3 W / mK and less than or equal to 25 W / mK.

[0112] For example, the thermal conductivity of insulating adhesives includes 3W / mK, 10W / mK, 15W / mK, 20W / mK, 25W / mK, etc.

[0113] If the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive is less than 3 W / mK, its thermal conductivity cannot meet the thermal requirements of the circuit layer 111, which can easily cause heat accumulation in the circuit layer 111 and affect its service life. If the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive is greater than 25 W / mK, its thermal conductivity is too strong, which can easily cause the circuit layer 111 to lose temperature in low-temperature environments.

[0114] In some embodiments, the thickness of the insulating adhesive is greater than or equal to 50 μm and less than or equal to 350 μm.

[0115] For example, the thickness of the insulating adhesive includes 50μm, 100μm, 200μm, 300μm, and 350μm.

[0116] If the thickness of the insulating adhesive is less than 50 μm, the bonding strength of the insulating adhesive may not meet the requirements; if the thickness of the insulating adhesive is greater than 350 μm, the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive may not meet the requirements.

[0117] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110, which, by setting the thickness of the insulating adhesive, can ensure that the insulating adhesive has good insulation properties, reduce the risk of insulation failure, and ensure the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive.

[0118] Furthermore, by setting the thermal conductivity of the insulating adhesive, it is possible to ensure that the insulating adhesive has a good thermal conductivity while reducing the cost of the insulating adhesive.

[0119] In some embodiments, there are multiple thermally conductive insulating layers 112, and the multiple thermally conductive insulating layers 112 are connected to one or more circuit layers 111.

[0120] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110 in which multiple thermally conductive insulating layers 112 are connected to a circuit layer 111, which can save the material cost of the thermally conductive insulating layers 112 and also allows for flexible adjustment of the number of thermally conductive insulating layers 112.

[0121] In some embodiments, the number of thermally conductive insulating layers 112 is a single layer, and the single thermally conductive insulating layer 112 is located between the circuit layer 111 and the heat exchange layer 113.

[0122] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments, which facilitates the installation of the thermally conductive insulating layer 112 by setting the number of thermally conductive insulating layers 112 to one.

[0123] In some embodiments, the number of line layers 111 is multiple.

[0124] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments. By setting the number of circuit layers 111 to be multiple, different device bodies 120 can be mounted on each circuit layer 111 (as shown in FIG3). In this way, multiple electronic components 100 can be formed on a single circuit board 110. Compared with related technologies that form one electronic component 100 on a single circuit board 110, the packaging cost of the electronic component 100 can be reduced and the power density can be increased.

[0125] In some embodiments, the number of line layers 111 is four, and the four line layers 111 are arranged in the same direction.

[0126] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 in some embodiments, which can better meet installation needs by setting the number of circuit layers 111.

[0127] In some embodiments, there are four circuit layers 111. One circuit layer 111 houses a device body 120 that, together with the circuit layer 111, forms a power factor correction (PFC) fast transistor and a PFC slow transistor. Another circuit layer 111 houses a device body 120 that, together with the circuit layer 111, forms the primary side of a resonance circuit (LLC). A third circuit layer 111 houses a device body 120 that, together with the circuit layer 111, forms the secondary side of the LLC circuit and the primary side of a DC circuit. A fourth circuit layer 111 houses a device body 120 that, together with the circuit layer 111, forms the secondary side of a DC circuit. The PFC fast transistor, PFC slow transistor, LLC primary side, and LLC secondary side together form a charger circuit assembly. The DC primary side and DC secondary side together form a DC / DC circuit assembly. The charger circuit assembly converts AC power to DC power to charge the power battery. The DC / DC circuit assembly converts the high-voltage DC power output from the battery pack to low-voltage DC power to charge the vehicle's low-voltage electrical appliances.

[0128] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2, the heat exchange layer 113 includes a connecting portion 1131 and an enclosing portion 1132. The connecting portion 1131 is stacked with the thermally conductive insulating layer 112. The enclosing portion 1132 is disposed around the connecting portion 1131.

[0129] This disclosure provides a circuit board 110 with a connecting portion 1131 and a surrounding portion 1132. The surrounding portion 1132 is used to connect with a cover portion 130 (as shown in FIG3). After the cover portion 130 is connected to the heat exchange layer 113, it can encapsulate the circuit board 110. The cover portion 130 facilitates the encapsulation of the circuit board 110.

[0130] In some embodiments, the thickness of the circuit layer 111 is greater than or equal to 0.2 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm.

[0131] For example, the thickness of the line layer 111 includes 0.2mm, 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm.

[0132] Some embodiments of this disclosure provide a circuit board 110, in which the thickness of the line layer 111 is set so as to ensure the electrical connection function of the line layer 111 while minimizing the impact of the line layer 111 on the overall thickness of the circuit board 110.
