Recently, printed wiring boards (PWBs) employed in electronic devices have been miniaturized, lightened, and made multifunctional. Therefore, a new technology is required to improve the mounting density of PWBs. In the present report, we study high-quality, high-speed drilling of through-holes in PWBs. Particularly, we investigate the tool path for drilling grid-pattern holes. We estimate the drill temperature and PWB temperature while drilling the PWBs. On the basis of the results, we propose a tool path decision method that considers heat damage on the PWBs for a drilling CAM system.

ABSTRACTThe predominate substrate for multilayer printed wiring boards is laminate constructed from epoxy resin reinforced with fiber glass fabrics. This combination of materials dominates the segment of the electronics market where dimensional stability of the substrate is critical. The rapid development of high speed digital and analog electronic systems has challenged the predominance of fiber glass as the reinforcement of choice. As systems move to the GHz frequency range, there is a need for lower dielectric constant of the substrate to insure integrity and speed of signals. A lower dissipation factor of the substrate is desired for the wireless communication applications of printed wiring boards. A review is presented of materials competing as substrates for the high speed application of the printed wiring board market.

Thermal modeling of Surface Mount Technology (SMT) microelectronics packages is difficult due to the complexity of the printed wiring board (PWB) plates through hole (PTH) structure. A simple, yet powerful finite difference based approach, called EPIC (Equivalent Parameter for Interfacial Cells), for modelling complex 2-D and 3-D geometries with multiple materials is used to model the PTH structure. A technique for computing an effective thermal conductivity for the PWB is presented. The results compare favorably with those from a commercially available finite element package but require far less computer time.

This paper details the thermal evaluation of high-current polyimide rigid and rigid-flex printed wiring boards in a vacuum. Although industry standards, such as IPC-2152 or MIL-STD-275, can be used to determine required trace width for PWB traces that carry current to between 20 or 30 amps for multiple copper plane thicknesses, they typically cannot be used to determine trace width for PWB traces that handle current greater than 15 amps. This paper presents results from testing and analysis of high-current rigid and rigid-flex PWBS that must carry current of up to 60 amps. Testing was performed in vacuum on a controlled-temperature platen, measuring board temperature at specific locations to determine performance of different trace widths using 2 and 4 ounce copper layers. A thermal imaging camera was used to identify PWB hot spots. Test results were compared to IPC-2152 standards, extrapolated to 60 amps current.
