Prezentare generală a produsului: What Is a 10-Layer 3-Stage HDI PCB?
A 10-layer 3-stage HDI PCB is a high-density interconnect printed circuit board. It uses three sequential lamination cycles and three laser drilling steps. The 3+N+3 stackup has three build-up layers on each side. The middle N section contains four core layers. Total layer count is ten. This structure enables high-density routing and reliable signal transmission.
IPC-2226 defines this 3+N+3 structure as Type III HDI. Nota: Some older sources call 3+N+3 Type II. That label is incorrect. IPC-2226 defines Type III for 3+N+3.
The electronics industry keeps shrinking devices. Tradiţional PCB technology is near its physical limits. HDI technology solves this problem. It packs more routing into less space. Ca urmare, PCB-uri HDI power modern high-end electronics.

Industry Standard Classification: HDI Types Under IPC-2226
IPC-2226 defines HDI types by build-up layers per side.
| Tip HDI | Stivuire | Build-Up Layers Per Side | IPC-2226 Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tipul I | 1+N+1 | 1 | Standard type |
| Tipul II | 2+N+2 | 2 | Standard type |

This product is IPC-2226 Type III. It uses 3+N+3. Susține 0.25 mm BGA pitch. It also supports 0.10 mm blind vias.
IPC-T-50M defines a microvia as a blind via with:
- Diameter ≤ 0.15 mm
- Aspect ratio ≤ 1:1
- Depth ≤ 0.25 mm
UGPCB 0.10 mm blind via meets this definition.
Stackup Structure: Engineering Logic of 3+N+3
The 3+N+3 stackup uses three build-up layers on each side. For a 10-layer board, N equals 4. The full stackup is 3+4+3.
- Outer layers: three signal layers on each side.
- Middle layers: four core layers.
- Inner layers: power and ground planes.
This arrangement supports high-speed signals and stable power delivery.
Key design points:
- Integritatea semnalului: Controla 50 Ω single-ended impedance. Controla 90 Ω și 100 Ω differential impedance.
- Power distribution: Use split power and ground planes. Keep inner copper at 18 μm or higher.
- Microvia design: Follow IPC-2226. Keep microvia aspect ratio at or below 1:1.
- BGA fanout: Sprijin 0.25 mm BGA pitch. This pitch suits advanced packages.
Cum funcționează: Microvia Technology for High-Density Interconnect
HDI PCBs use microvias instead of through holes. A microvia connects only the layers that need a connection. This design frees routing space.
UGPCB builds this 10-layer 3-stage HDI PCB in three stages.
- Etapă 1: Laser drills form blind vias between L1-L2 and L9-L10.
- Etapă 2: Laser drills form blind vias between L2-L3 and L8-L9.
- Etapă 3: Laser drills form blind vias between L3-L4 and L7-L8.
Three lamination cycles build all microvia layers. This process creates a true 3D interconnect structure.
Reliability matters. Clasa IPC-6012 3 necesită un minim de 20 μm copper in holes. It also requires an average of 25 μm. Plating must reach the bottom of each blind via. Engineers control aspect ratio to prevent voids.
Key Materials and Performance
FR4 Tg170 Base Material
Acest produs foloseste FR4 Tg170 laminate. It meets IPC-4101. Tg means glass transition temperature. Tg170 means the material stays rigid below 170°C.
High-Tg materials offer key benefits:
- Thermal reliability: Z-axis CTE is about 45–55 ppm/°C below Tg. IPC-4101 sets a maximum of 60 ppm/°C for many high-Tg FR4 grades.
- Sudabilitate: The material withstands lead-free reflow. Peak temperature reaches about 260°C.
- Evaluare la flacără: FR4 meets UL94 V-0. It self-extinguishes within 10 secunde. It does not produce flaming drips that ignite cotton.
Grosime de cupru
- Outer copper: 35 μm, despre 1 Oz. It carries current and spreads heat.
- Cupru interior: 18 μm, despre 0.5 Oz. It supports fine-line etching.
Line Width and Spacing
Consiliul realizează 2.8/3.2 mil line width and spacing. That equals 0.071/0.081 mm. This range falls into fine-line Design PCB.
IPC-2221B requires 0.10 mm minimum spacing for external uncoated conductors at 0–15 V. This product’s 3.2 mil spacing is close to that limit. It demands tight etching control and high-precision AOI.
Procesul de fabricație: From Core to Finished HDI PCB
UGPCB follows a multi-stage sequential lamination process.
Etapă 1: Fabricarea miezului
The process starts with double-sided copper-clad laminate. Mechanical drilling forms through holes down to 0.20 mm. Placare, imagistica, and etching form inner-layer circuits.
Etapă 2: First Build-Up Lamination and Laser Drilling
The team stacks prepreg and copper foil on both sides. A high-temperature press bonds the layers. A UV laser drills 0.10 mm blind vias. Plating fills the vias and forms L1-L2 interconnects.
Etapă 3: Second Build-Up Lamination and Laser Drilling
The team repeats lamination, foraj cu laser, și placare. This step forms L2-L3 interconnects.
Etapă 4: Third Build-Up Lamination and Laser Drilling
The team completes the third build-up. This step forms L3-L4 interconnects. All ten layers now have interconnections.
Etapă 5: Outer Patterning and Finishing
The process forms outer circuits with 2.8/3.2 mil line width and spacing. Then comes solder mask, finisarea suprafeței, and routing. Surface finish options include ENIG, OSP, și HASL fără plumb. Final checks include AOI, Radiografie, și testarea sondei zburătoare.
