Detailed Explanation of PCB Process

Number of Layers

2 - 30 Layers PCB Circuit Board

The number of PCB layers refers to the number of layers in the design file.

Board Material Type

FR-4 Rigid Board / Aluminum Substrate

FR-4 Board Material (Grade A Kingboard Material, Grade A Guojiji Material) / Aluminum-based Board Material {Halogen-free Circuit Board}

Ink

Guangxin / Rongda / Lanbang

The quality of the ink directly affects the solder resistance performance of the PCB, and thus directly affects the performance of the product.

Maximum Specification

680mm * 1200mm

The maximum specification for double-sided PCB board production: 680x1200mm, and the maximum specification for four- and six-layer PCB board production: 680x640mm

Board Thickness Range

0.4 - 2.0mm

Currently, the custom-produced PCB board thicknesses are: 0.4/0.6/0.8/1.0/1.2/1.6/2.0 - 3.0mm

Outer Dimension Accuracy

±0.15mm

The CNC outer shape tolerance is ±0.15mm, and the V-cut board outer shape tolerance is ±0.15mm

Board Thickness Tolerance (t≥1.0mm)

±10%

Please note for this item: Due to production process reasons (copper deposition, solder resistance, and pad plating will increase the board thickness), it generally has a positive tolerance.

Board Thickness Tolerance (t<1.0mm)

±0.1mm

Please note for this item: Due to production process reasons (copper deposition, solder resistance, and pad plating will increase the board thickness), it generally has a positive tolerance.

Minimum Line Width and Spacing

4mil/4mil (0.1mm)

Currently, 4mil line width and spacing can be custom-produced. The line width and spacing should preferably be greater than 4mil.

Minimum Hole Diameter

0.2mm

Currently, 0.2mm hole diameter can be custom-produced. The hole diameter should preferably be greater than 0.2mm.

Minimum Clearance

4mil (0.1mm)

Currently, 4mil line spacing can be produced. The clearance should preferably be greater than 4mil.

Finished Product Outer Layer Copper Thickness

35um/70um/105um (1 OZ/2 OZ/3 OZ)

It refers to the thickness of the outer layer circuit copper foil of the finished circuit board. 1OZ = 35um, 2OZ = 70um, 3 OZ = 105um

Finished Product Hole Diameter (Machine Drilled)

0.25 - 6.5mm

Since the inner wall of the hole is coated with metallic copper, the finished product hole diameter is generally smaller than the drilled hole diameter in the file.

Hole Diameter Tolerance (Machine Drilled)

±0.075mm

The tolerance of the drilled hole is ±0.075mm. For example, for a hole designed to be 0.6mm, the finished product hole diameter of the physical board between 0.525 - 0.675mm is acceptable.

Solder Mask Color

Green / Red / Blue / White / Black / Purple...

The solder mask color refers to the ink color of the solder mask layer on the PCB surface.

Minimum Character Width

≥0.15mm

The minimum width of the character. If it is less than 0.15mm, the characters on the physical board may be unclear due to design reasons.

Minimum Character Height

≥0.8mm

The minimum height of the character. If it is less than 0.8mm, the characters on the physical board may be unclear due to design reasons.

Character Width-to-Height Ratio

1:5

The most suitable width-to-height ratio is more conducive to production.

Distance between Traces and Outer Shape

≥0.3mm(12mil)

For boards shipped by routing, the distance between the traces on the circuit layer and the outer shape line of the board should not be less than 0.3mm. For V-cut panelized boards shipped, the distance between the traces and the V-cut center line should not be less than 0.4mm.

Panelization: Gap for Gapless Panelization

0 Gap Panelization

For panelized boards shipped, the gap between adjacent boards is 0 (detailed in the document).

Panelization: Gap for Panelization with Gap

1.6mm

The gap for panelization with gap should not be less than 1.6mm. Otherwise, it will be difficult to route the edges.

PCB Outer Shape Process Edge

0.3mm / 0.5mm

The conventional process edge is 0.5mm. If there are special requirements, please inform in advance.

Pads Manufacturer's Copper Pouring Method

Copper Pouring in Hatch Method

The manufacturer uses reduced copper pouring. Customers who design with Pads must pay attention to this item.

Drawing Grooves in Pads Software

Use the Drill Drawing Layer

If there are many non-metallized grooves on the board, please draw them on the Drill Drawing layer.

Windowing Layer in Protel/dxp Software

Solder Layer

A few engineers mistakenly place it on the paste layer, and no processing is done on the paste layer.

Half-hole Process

The number is no more than 10

The half-hole process is a special process. The minimum hole diameter should not be less than 1.0mm.

Single-sided Welding Ring of Through Hole (t<1.0mm)

4mil {0.1mm}

The parameter is the minimum value. It is better to be greater than this parameter.

Minimum Inner/Outer Diameter of Through Hole

Inner diameter 0.2mm, outer diameter 0.45mm

For double-sided boards, the minimum inner diameter is 0.3mm and the minimum outer diameter is 0.6mm. For multi-layer boards, the minimum inner diameter is 0.2mm and the minimum outer diameter is 0.45mm.
