과학적 분류 & 정의

정의: A rigid-flex printed circuit board (also called 리지드 플렉스 PCB or FPCB) combines rigid and flexible substrates into one structure. It contains one or more rigid areas (for components and mechanical support) and one or flexible areas (for bending and folding in compact devices).

IPC Classification: IPC-6013 Type 4 – Multi-layer Rigid-Flex Board with rigid multilayer and flexible multilayer sections.

Core Parameters & 재료

Material Details:

• FR-4 (엄격한): Glass-reinforced epoxy laminate. Tg ≥130°C. CTE 12–16 ppm/°C. Excellent mechanical strength, 화학 저항, and insulation (≥10¹²Ω at 500V DC). It is the industry standard rigid substrate for medical PCBs.

• 폴리이미드 (Flex): PI film with Tg >300℃. Operates from -55°C to +300°C. Minimum bend radius 0.1mm. Dynamic flex life ≥50,000 cycles. PI offers outstanding thermal stability and flexibility.

• 구리 (0.025mm / 0.7 온스): Balances current capacity and fine-line etching. According to IPC-2221, a 0.1mm trace (outer layer, 10°C temperature rise) carries about 100–150mA – sufficient for most medical sensor signals.

작동 원리

The rigid-flex PCB works through coordinated interconnection and signal transmission between rigid and flexible zones.

Rigid zone: Six copper layers stack and laminate on FR-4. Plated through holes (PTH) provide vertical interconnects. You solder or mount 구성 요소 on the rigid surface. This forms the core circuit system: 마이크로 컨트롤러 (MCU), power management IC (PMIC), Bluetooth/WiFi module, 등. The rigid zone gives stable mechanical support for reliable soldering.

Flexible zone: The polyimide substrate carries bendable signal traces. A coverlay protects the copper circuits. The flex zone bends, folds, or twists to connect sensors (heart rate, blood oxygen, accelerometer). This allows 3D signal routing. Impedance remains continuous along the flex, ensuring lossless transmission of high-frequency physiological signals like ECG and PPG.

설계 지침 (IPC-2221 & IPC-2223)

Follow these key rules when designing your smart health assistant rigid-flex PCB:

1. 스택 업 디자인: Use a mirror-symmetric 6-layer rigid stack (예를 들어, Top-GND-Signal-Power-GND-Bottom). Keep warp below 0.75%. For the flex area, use 2–4 layers maximum to retain bending flexibility.

2. Trace/space: Minimum 0.1mm (4 밀) for standard signals per IPC-2221. For high-speed differential pairs (I²C, SPI, RF), use 0.15mm to improve impedance matching.

3. Bending area routing: Use arcs and angled traces – never 90° corners – to avoid stress concentration. For dynamic flex, 사용 0.5 온스 구리 (thinner than 0.7 온스) to extend flex life.

4. 임피던스 제어: Control high-speed signals (≥1 GHz) to ±10% tolerance. Adjust trace width and layer spacing. Target 50Ω single-ended or 90/100Ω differential. For ECG signals (low frequency, high impedance), ensure input impedance >10MΩ.

5. Thermal management: Smart health devices are compact and heat-dense. Add copper pour or thermal vias under power modules – copper area at least 1.5x the component area. Keep hot components at least 5mm away from temperature sensors to avoid thermal interference.

구조 & 구성요소

The smart health assistant rigid-flex PCB has three core parts:

• Rigid zone (6-layer FR-4, 0.8mm total): Holds large components: MCU, Bluetooth/WiFi module, PMIC, battery connector. Components attach via SMT.

• Flexible zone (0.2mm polyimide): Connects rigid zones to sensors. Bends and folds for 3D assembly. Coverlay protects copper traces.

• Transition zone (rigid-flex interface): No-flow prepreg bonds FR-4 and PI layers layer by layer. Critical alignment tolerance: ≤±0.05mm.

성능 & Standards Compliance

Current capacity (reference IPC-2221): For a 0.2mm wide, 0.025mm (0.7 온스) outer layer trace at 25°C ambient with 10°C rise, capacity is about 0.25–0.3A (empirical). Design with 30% margin – target 0.2A max operating current.

표면 마감: 동의하다 (이머젼 골드)

UGPCB uses ENIG per IPC-4552.

• 금 두께: 0.025–0.125μm (1–5 microinches). We lock at 0.05μm – ensures solderability, 내산화성, and low contact resistance.

• 니켈 두께: 3-6μm (118–236 microinches). This diffusion barrier prevents brittle intermetallic formation between copper and gold.

• Key benefit: Excellent flatness (± 15μm). Ideal for fine-pitch packages (BGA, CSP) and aluminum wire bonding.

ENIG resists corrosion from sweat, alcohol gel, and biological residues. It passes 72-hour salt spray test with no rust.
