UGPCB 26-Layer High-Performance Server PCB: The Core Foundation for Data Center Computing Power

In the digital era, servers are the “super-brains” processing massive data, and the server PCB (printed circuit board) is the critical “neural network” of this brain. A well-designed, precisely manufactured high-end server motherboard PCB directly determines a data center’s processing speed, power efficiency, and long-term operational stability. Leveraging deep expertise in de mare viteză, high-layer-count Fabricarea PCB-urilor, UGPCB has developed this flagship 26-layer server PCB for next-generation High-Performance Computing (HPC), Servere AI, and cloud data centers. It is engineered to deliver exceptional electrical performance and reliable physical structure to support extreme computational loads.

Product Definition & Prezentare generală: What is a High-End Server PCB?

A high-end server PCB is a complex, multi-layer circuit board designed to host core components like CPUs, memory, high-speed interfaces (De ex., PCIe, CXL), and power management units, and to establish ultra-high-speed, highly reliable electrical connections between them. It is not just a mechanical substrate but a critical platform for ensuring signal integrity and power integrity at GHz frequencies. This UGPCB product features a sophisticated 26-layer PCB stack-up, utilizing advanced materials and processes specifically engineered for demanding applications like big data processing and AI training.

Core Design Points & Principiul de lucru

The primary function of a server PCB is to provide a low-loss, low-interference transmission path for high-speed digital signals and high-current power delivery. Its design revolves around several key principles:

1. Integritatea semnalului (SI): The use of high-speed materials (TG 170) and precise control over trace width/spacing of 0.08mm/0.09mm minimizes signal attenuation and distortion, ensuring error-free data transmission at rates of tens of Gb/s.

2. Power Integrity (Pi): The incorporation of 2oz heavy copper (2/2 Oz) for power and internal planes reduces DC resistance and temperature rise, delivering ample and clean power to high-power chips like CPUs/GPUs.

3. Controlul impedanței & Backdrilling: Strict impedance control is applied to high-speed channels. A key innovation is the use of backdrilling technology to remove the unused conductive stub (barrel) of plated through-holes, eliminating signal reflection points—a core process for enhancing signal quality in high-speed PCBs.

4. Managementul termic & Fiabilitate: O finished board thickness of 2.97mm ±10% şi high Tg 170 material provide excellent mechanical strength and heat resistance, ensuring the PCB remains stable and reliable under the prolonged, high-temperature, full-load operation of servers.
