5G通信として, 航空宇宙, and high-end medical electronic devices advance rapidly, product internal space becomes increasingly compact, while demanding higher signal transmission stability and reliability. Traditional rigid プリント基板 or cable connections can no longer meet these complex design requirements. UGPCB 8-層リジッドフレックス PCB, with its unique rigid-flex integrated structure, perfectly solves the challenges of three-dimensional assembly and high-density interconnection. It provides an ideal “rigid and flexible” carrier for your designs.

What is a Rigid-Flex PCB?
あ リジッドフレックスPCB is a composite circuit board formed by combining フレキシブルプリント回路 そして rigid printed circuits through a lamination process, according to specific circuit design requirements.
It is not a simple physical overlay. その代わり, it integrates the bendable and foldable characteristics of flexible circuits with the high mechanical strength and load-bearing capacity of rigid circuits. In UGPCB’s product, we achieve seamless electrical interconnection between 4 rigid layers and 4 flexible layers through precise stack-up design. This allows a single circuit board to securely mount components while bending and navigating through tight spaces.
デザインのハイライト: Precise 8-Layer Rigid-Flex Structure
To meet the stringent demands of communication equipment for signal integrity and mechanical stability, UGPCB’s product adopts a symmetrical 8-層 (4R+4F) structure design.
-
Stack-up Control: Four rigid layers (using FR-4) host complex logic devices, while four flexible layers (using polyimide) enable signal connections across different areas. This design effectively avoids signal attenuation and assembly errors caused by connectors and cables.
-
インピーダンスマッチング: At the rigid-flex interface, we implement smooth trace transitions to ensure impedance continuity, それはにとって重要です 高速通信 アプリケーション.
-
Bending Radius Consideration: Considering the bending stress of multi-layer structures, our design ensures the bend radius of the flexible area is significantly larger than the minimum allowable value (typically more than 10 times the total thickness) to prevent copper foil fracture.
Working Principle and Structure
The working principle of this 8-layer rigid-flex PCB is based on its unique physical structure:
-
厳格な領域: The four rigid layers mainly provide mechanical support for components, such as mounting main control chips, パワーモジュール, およびコネクタ. Internal circuits are interconnected through plated through-holes.
-
柔軟な領域: The four flexible layers act as the “electrical spine,” responsible for transmitting data between different modules of the device (例えば。, between the main control board and display panel or RF front-end). Due to the use of ポリイミド 基板, they can bend into various shapes to fit the device enclosure.
-
Interconnection Interface: The junction between rigid and flexible sections is specially treated (例えば。, teardrop connections, stepped transitions) to ensure electrical connection reliability during dynamic bending.
Core Materials and Performance Advantages
UGPCB selects top-grade materials for this product to ensure excellent performance in harsh environments:
-
基板: Combination of FR-4 そして ポリイミド. FR-4 provides mechanical strength in rigid areas, while PI offers exceptional heat resistance, 耐薬品性, and flex life in flexible areas.
-
銅箔: The entire board uses 1 オンス 銅の厚さ. For flexible areas subject to dynamic bending, the use of rolled annealed copper ensures excellent bending endurance.
-
表面仕上げ: イマージョンゴールド と 3µ” gold thickness. The thick gold layer provides superior surface flatness and contact reliability, particularly suitable for contacts requiring frequent insertion/withdrawal or long-term stable connection in communication equipment.
製造工程と品質管理
To achieve high-precision 4mil/4mil traces and complex 8-layer structures, UGPCB follows a strict standardized production process:
-
Inner Layer Preparation: Fabricate four rigid inner layers and four flexible inner layers separately. 使用 マイクロエッチング to treat the flexible board surface, ensuring trace adhesion.
-
Window Opening and Brown Oxide: Precisely cut windows in the bonding sheets for rigid and flexible areas to prevent excessive resin flow that could affect the flexibility of the flex areas.
-
ラミネート加工: 使用 no-flow prepreg to bond rigid and flexible sections together under high temperature and pressure in a single or sequential lamination process, ensuring strong bonding without voids.
-
穴あけ加工とメッキ加工: 使用 X線 掘削 to ensure アライメント精度 of multiple layers. Then drill and remove smear, followed by electroless copper plating to achieve interlayer connection.
-
ルーティング: Use laser or controlled-depth routing to precisely mill away excess material in flexible areas, releasing the flexible sections.
Product Classification and Applications
構造的に, this product belongs to multi-layer rigid-flex boards (タイプ 3 または 4 under IPC-6013 standards).
Primary Application Scenarios:
