Button-plated FPC that enables high-speed transmission, ultra-thinness, and flexibility in a new dimension.
Button-plated flexible printed circuit boards (FPC) can utilize the original thickness and characteristics of copper foil by applying through-hole plating only to the through-holes and through-hole lands. This allows for uniform maintenance of conductor thickness, enabling the formation of high-precision wiring, which is expected to provide high-accuracy impedance control, making it ideal for high-speed transmission applications.
Compared to conventional panel plating methods, button-plated FPCs excel in flexibility and bendability, achieving ultra-thin designs. This enables the lightweight and compact design of products. The new method also allows for button plating on narrow pitch patterns.
Product Features:
1. By applying copper plating only to the through-holes, the original characteristics of the copper foil are maximized.
2. High-precision impedance control is possible, demonstrating performance suitable for high-speed transmission.
3. Compared to panel plating methods, it excels in flexibility and bendability while achieving ultra-thin designs.
4. It provides stable quality with technology that has cleared reliability evaluations based on JISC5016.
5. Through-hole plating is possible even for narrow pitch patterns, which were previously difficult to achieve.
