Description

Radar plate PCB manufacturing process
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of PCB manufacturing, in particular to a radar board PCB manufacturing process.
Background
The Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is also called a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), and the rapid development and wide application of integrated circuits make the volume of electronic equipment smaller and the Circuit wiring density and difficulty larger and larger, and based on different use scenes and use requirements, the types of the PCBs are continuously updated, and the structure and the quality are also developing to ultrahigh density, miniaturization and high reliability. The radar board PCB is a kind of PCB responsible for generating, transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals, and generally includes an antenna structure and a radio frequency circuit mounted on a high frequency laminate, the antenna structure is used for transmitting radio frequency signals generated by the radio frequency circuit and radio frequency signals reflected after hitting an object, the radio frequency circuit is used for generating radio frequency signals and receiving and analyzing the reflected radio frequency signals, and therefore, the radar board PCB has high requirements for the fineness, stability, reliability and the like of the circuits thereon.
In reality, MSAP flow is often adopted in the manufacturing industry of high-frequency radar panel PCBs: the whole board is pressed and then subjected to processes of copper reduction, drilling, copper deposition, outer layer dry film, electroplating, flash etching and the like to finally obtain the radar board PCB with the finally designed copper-clad graph, namely, a through hole and a blind hole are drilled on a substrate with a thin initial copper layer, conductive layers are connected through the copper deposition, a required place is exposed after exposure and development of the outer layer dry film, then the copper thickness of a formal circuit on a circuit board is thickened to a required specification through electroplating, redundant copper layers on a non-circuit layer are removed through flash etching, and the retained copper layers are copper-filled layers of the through hole and the blind hole and required circuit layers. The through hole and the blind hole on the PCB are used for connecting each circuit layer, the quality of through hole electroplating and blind hole copper filling plays a crucial role in the electrical connection and performance of each PCB layer, the MSAP flow is characterized in that the integration of through hole electroplating and blind hole filling is realized, and the formation of the circuit and the metallization filling of the through hole and the blind hole mainly depend on electroplating and flash etching. In the electroplating process, the integration of through-hole electroplating and blind hole filling reduces the production flow of the radar board PCB, improves the production efficiency, and increases the conductivity and the heat dissipation, and in the etching process, because the etched chemical copper layer is very thin, the etching time is very short, the lateral etching to the circuit is small, the width of the circuit is not affected by the thickness of the copper plating, the resolution is higher, and the yield of fine circuits can be greatly improved. However, as the aperture of the domestic PCB is reduced and the thickness-diameter ratio is increased, through hole electroplating and hole electroplating on the wall of a blind hole are more and more difficult, particularly, the too small aperture is easy to cause poor quality of a copper deposition process, the copper deposition process can enable the through hole and the blind hole to be better connected with each circuit layer and provide a conductive layer for a subsequent electroplating process because of certain concavity of the surfaces of the through hole, the blind hole and the copper deposition process, the copper deposition quality of the through hole and the blind hole plays an important role in electrical connection and performance of each layer of the PCB, the poor copper deposition quality of the through hole and the blind hole can influence the effect of the subsequent electroplating process, the phenomenon that the electric charge attraction force is lacked in the hole during electroplating is caused, the uneven through hole electroplating is caused, the hole filling efficiency of the blind hole is low, and the like.
Common plating processes include horizontal continuous plating lines, vertical plating lines, and vertical continuous plating lines. The high-frequency radar PCB is used as a type of PCB with extremely high requirements on fineness and reliability, a vertical continuous plating line (VCP) is adopted for the electroplating process of the radar PCB in the actual production, and compared with a horizontal plating line, the vertical continuous plating line is characterized by realizing the integration of through hole electroplating and blind hole copper filling of the radar PCB; compared with the traditional vertical electroplating line, the vertical continuous electroplating line is characterized in that the cathode is plated in a stepping mode, a jet flow mode is adopted in the solution exchange treatment, the stepping working mode can enhance the uniformity of the whole plate electroplating, the jet flow mode can ensure that the solution exchange is sufficient, the liquid level is relatively stable, the vertical swing of the plate is less influenced, the electroplating quality can be effectively improved by adopting the vertical continuous electroplating line, the occupied area is greatly reduced, and the vertical continuous electroplating line also has advantages in the aspect of batch production, so that the quality and the yield of the PCB can be effectively improved. However, the through hole electroplating and blind hole filling of the high-frequency radar PCB by adopting the vertical continuous electroplating line have the following problems:
firstly, the copper content of the radar PCB in the holes after copper deposition is not uniform, the copper deposition layer is easy to oxidize, the hole filling rate after electroplating is low, and the depressions of the blind holes are large, so that the conductivity and the precision of the radar PCB are influenced;
secondly, the method is not suitable for the radar board PCB after horizontal copper deposition, the copper deposition layer of the horizontal copper deposition is thin, the electric charge attraction is small during electroplating, and the through hole electroplating is insufficient, the blind hole filling rate is low and large depression is caused;
thirdly, when the jet flow frequency is overlarge during electroplating, the areas with thicker hole walls and lower copper shielding in the blind holes on the radar board PCB are easy to form holes and other defects.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a radar board PCB manufacturing process, which effectively solves the problems of uneven through hole electroplating of a high-frequency radar board PCB, depression and cavities during blind hole filling and the like, and improves the precision and reliability of the radar board PCB.
In order to solve the problems, the invention adopts the following technical scheme: a radar board PCB manufacturing process comprises the following steps:
s1, completing whole plate pressing;
s2, reducing copper to reduce the thickness of the copper layer of the outer-layer plate and form an initial copper layer;
s3, hole machining, namely machining through holes and blind holes which are connected with different layers on the whole plate;
s4, depositing copper, namely depositing copper layers in the through holes and the blind holes to realize the electric connection of each layer;
s5, forming an outer layer circuit pattern on the initial copper layer and filling the blind holes by using an outer layer dry film process and an electroplating process;
s6, removing redundant initial copper layers by a flash etching process to form a final outer layer circuit pattern;
entering a subsequent process;
wherein the step S5 comprises the following steps:
s51, an outer layer dry film process is carried out, an initial copper layer of a to-be-thickened graph is exposed after exposure and development, the to-be-thickened graph comprises an antenna surface graph, a peripheral graph, a through hole, a blind hole and a balance copper surface graph filled between the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph, and the balance copper surface graph is not communicated with the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph;
s52, electroplating, namely electroplating the to-be-thickened graph on the initial copper layer, wherein the to-be-thickened graph comprises thickening the thicknesses of the antenna surface graph, the peripheral graph and the balance copper surface graph, thickening the copper layer deposited in the through hole, filling the blind hole, and removing the outer dry film once;
and S54, etching the balance copper surface pattern by using a secondary outer layer dry film process. Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
in the technical scheme, the radar board PCB is manufactured based on an MSAP (multiple input multiple output) process, specifically comprises a pressing process, a copper reduction process, a hole processing process, an outer layer dry film and electroplating process and a flash etching process, specifically improves the outer layer dry film and the electroplating process in the MSAP process, and specifically adopts a primary outer layer dry film process, electroplating and a secondary outer layer dry film process to achieve the effects of realizing the integration of blind hole electroplating filling and through hole electroplating and improving the quality of electroplating and filling. The reason why the area between the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern is increased and developed, namely the copper surface pattern is balanced, and the subsequent copper layer thickening is carried out on the area between the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern is because the through hole, the blind hole and the copper-clad surface have certain concavity, particularly when the aperture of the radar board PCB is small, if the quality problems of the copper-clad layer such as the thinness and the like caused by the adoption of a horizontal copper-clad wire process, the charge attraction force of the copper layer in the blind hole and the through hole during electroplating is small, copper ions in chemical copper plating liquid can be gathered on the initial copper layer of the radar board PCB panel with stronger charge attraction force, so that the blind hole filling rate is low and larger concavity is further generated. Therefore, the balance copper surface is added, the electroplating area is enlarged, and the developed balance copper surface pattern is not communicated with the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern, so that the charge attraction of the area needing to be electroplated on the radar board PCB can be balanced, the uniformity of electroplating and copper increasing of the whole area needing to be electroplated is ensured, and the balance copper surface is added on the board surface of the radar board PCB which is fully distributed with the through holes and the blind holes, so that the charge attraction can be increased for the through holes and the blind holes on the board surface of the radar board PCB, the uniformity of electroplating and filling the through holes and the blind holes on the board surface of the radar board PCB is improved, and the efficiency and the fullness degree of filling the blind holes are improved. Electroplating all the quasi-thickening patterns developed after one outer layer dry film process in the subsequent electroplating process, wherein the electroplating process comprises the thickening of copper layers of the antenna surface pattern, the peripheral pattern and the balanced copper surface pattern, the thickening of the deposited copper layer on the inner wall of the through hole on the surface of the radar board PCB, and the filling of the inside of the blind hole; and then, after the electroplating process is finished, the outer layer dry film is removed, and the balance copper surface pattern is more formed on the obtained radar board PCB than the original pattern design, so that in order to avoid the influence of the balance copper layer on the subsequent process, the secondary outer layer dry film process is adopted, the exposure machine is used for exposing and developing the balance copper surface pattern after copper increase, and the copper layer attached to the balance copper surface pattern area is removed in an etching mode.
Further, the electroplating process of the step S52 in the radar board PCB manufacturing process specifically includes:
s521, a one-step electroplating process is carried out, so that the deposition speed of copper in the blind hole is higher than that of other parts, and the blind hole filling is completed;
s522, secondary electroplating process, wherein the thickness of copper deposition on the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern is at least 4-8 times of that of the initial copper layer.
In the technical scheme, two electroplating processes are adopted, wherein the one electroplating process focuses on copper deposition filling of blind holes arranged on a radar board PCB, and adopts a mode that accelerating particles capable of attracting copper ions are attached in the blind holes, and inhibiting particles capable of inhibiting copper ion accumulation are attached to a board surface near the blind holes; because the primary electroplating process is mainly used for filling blind holes, the cost is controlled and excessive filling of the blind holes is avoided, the copper deposition amount on the surface copper in the primary electroplating process is not too large, and the secondary electroplating process is mainly used for thickening the copper layer on the radar board PCB to the design value of the radar board PCB, namely, the thickness of the copper deposition on the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph is at least 4-8 times of that of the initial copper layer.
Further, in the manufacturing process of the radar board PCB, the thickness of an initial copper layer in the S2 step is 0.21-0.29mil, in the S521 step, the thickness of copper deposition on the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern is 0.8-1.2mil, the blind holes are filled until the distance from the upper surface of the copper deposition on the antenna surface pattern or the peripheral pattern in the step is not more than 1.5mil, and in the S522 step, the thickness of the copper deposition on the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern is 1.6-2.0 mil.
Further, in the step S6 of the manufacturing process of the radar board PCB, the thickness of the final outer layer circuit pattern is 1.3-1.5mil, and the recess of the blind hole is less than 1.2mil.
In the technical scheme, the thickness of the initial copper layer is reduced to 0.21-0.29mil, so that the initial copper layer is thinner, the attraction of the initial copper layer to copper ions can be reduced during copper deposition, the electric charge attraction on the surface of the radar PCB during the uniform electroplating process is realized, the electroplating uniformity of the surface is improved, meanwhile, the influence of the copper deposition quality in the through hole and the blind hole on the through hole electroplating and the blind hole filling in the electroplating process is weakened, and the through hole electroplating and the blind hole filling quality is improved; meanwhile, the thinner initial copper layer means that less copper is needed to balance the charge influence, so that the copper deposition amount can be reduced during the subsequent formation of the balance copper layer, the loss is reduced, and the economic benefit is improved; the thickness of copper deposition on the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph in the primary electroplating process is maintained between 0.8 and 1.2mil, and correspondingly, the thickness of a balance copper layer is also maintained between 0.8 and 1.2mil, so that the effect of balancing the charge attraction of the surface of the radar PCB is achieved, the copper layer is thin, the copper deposition amount is small, the subsequent etching treatment is more convenient, and the cost is saved; filling the blind holes until the distance between the blind holes and the upper surface of the copper deposit on the antenna surface graph or the peripheral graph in the step is not more than 1.5mil, enabling the thickness of the copper deposit on the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph to be 1.6-2.0mil after the secondary electroplating process, continuously filling the blind holes on the radar board PCB at the moment, increasing the copper layers of the antenna surface graph and the peripheral graph to be 1.6-2.0mil after the secondary electroplating process, and meanwhile, fully filling the blind holes until the distance between the blind holes and the upper surface of the copper deposit on the antenna surface graph or the peripheral graph in the step is not more than 1.2mil because the copper deposition speed in the blind holes is higher than that of the board surface; finally, the radar board PCB needs to be subjected to flash etching process to integrally thin the copper layer on the radar board PCB, all initial copper layers except the required outer layer circuit graph are removed through flash etching, the flash-etched copper reduction thickness is consistent with the reserved initial copper layer and ranges from 0.21 mil to 0.29mil, the thickness of the finally obtained outer layer circuit graph ranges from 1.3 mil to 1.5mil, the depression value of the blind hole is still smaller than 1.2mil, therefore, the radar board PCB can reach the standard when the depression value of the blind hole is smaller than 1.2mil, and the precision and the reliability of the radar board PCB are not affected by the depression of the blind hole at the moment.
Further, in step S51 of the manufacturing process of the radar board PCB, the distance between the balanced copper pattern and the antenna pattern and the periphery pattern are between 8 and 18 mil.
Preferably, the distance between the balanced copper pattern and the antenna pattern and the peripheral pattern is between 10 and 15 mils.
In the technical scheme, a balance copper surface is added, the distance between a developed balance copper surface pattern and an antenna surface pattern and a peripheral pattern is controlled to be 8-18mil, preferably 10-15mil, the balance copper surface pattern is not communicated with the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern, so that the balance copper surface pattern, the antenna pattern and the peripheral pattern are uniformly distributed on a radar board PCB as much as possible, the charge attraction force of an area needing electroplating on the radar board PCB is balanced, the balance copper layer is prevented from being excessively concentrated with one copper layer in the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern, and the uniformity of copper increase in the whole electroplating of the radar board PCB is ensured; meanwhile, the balance copper surface pattern is not communicated with the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern, namely, the balance copper surface pattern area is defined in the area where the through holes and the blind holes are distributed on the radar board PCB, so that the electric charge attraction near the holes is increased, and the quality and the efficiency of through hole electroplating and blind hole filling are improved.
Further, in order to improve the efficiency and the fullness of blind hole filling, in the technical scheme, a pretreatment step is added between the step S51 and the step S52, and the pretreatment step comprises the following steps:
s121, cleaning the whole plate to remove attached impurities and oxides;
s122, attaching a gloss agent to the whole plate to attach the gloss agent to the surface of the whole plate and the blind holes;
and S123, cleaning the surface of the whole plate to enable the concentration of the polishing agent in the blind holes to be larger than that of the surface of the whole plate.
In this technical scheme, after a dry film process, still need carry out the preliminary treatment to radar board PCB before the electroplating process once, because spot facing work and heavy copper process, debris such as cull are probably adhered to in radar board PCB face and the hole, influence radar board PCB's planarization, and the heavy copper layer is easily oxidized, the electric conductivity of heavy copper layer when can influencing radar board PCB electroplating process, consequently carry out whole board cleaning process and get rid of adnexed debris and oxide on the radar board PCB, can promote the roughness of radar board PCB face, promote the electric conductivity of heavy copper layer when electroplating, promote radar board PCB's electroplating quality greatly. In order to improve the filling quality of through holes and blind holes on a radar board PCB, the whole board is required to be attached with a gloss agent, then the gloss agent attached to the board surface is washed away, so that the concentration of the gloss agent in the blind holes is greater than that of the surface of the whole board, the components of the gloss agent generally comprise a brightener, a leveling agent, a wetting agent and a dispersing agent, the brightener is accelerating particles, and the brightener acts on a copper plating layer to accelerate the deep plating capability in an electroplating process, improve the filling plumpness of the blind holes and improve the filling efficiency of the blind holes; the leveling agent is inhibiting particles which are adsorbed on the surface of the cathode, particularly microcosmic convex parts, and inhibit electrodeposition so as to level the copper plating layer; and the wetting agent and the dispersing agent play roles of wetting and mutual diffusion on the plating solution. The chemical components and formula of the gloss agent have great influence on the electroplating process, the ratio (TP) of the central thickness of a hole to the surface copper thickness of the hole designed by the chemical formula required by the integrated operation of through hole electroplating and blind hole filling in a vertical continuous electroplating line is more than 200%, and preferably, the commercially available chemicals meeting the requirements, such as VF200 of Madei and PC630 of OMG, can be adopted.
Further, in the pretreatment step, the step S121 includes at least one acid washing, one water washing, and one microetching treatment; the step S122 comprises primary acid leaching and primary pre-dipping of a gloss agent; and the step S123 comprises one-time washing, and the washing direction during the washing is horizontal to the PCB surface.
In this technical scheme, after initial radar board PCB upper plate, make radar board PCB go up copper face and blind hole and through-hole internal surface adnexed debris and break away from through the pickling, the rethread washing is washed debris out, for going out debris the most, the washing direction of washing should be perpendicular with radar board PCB face. Then soaking the cleaned radar PCB in a microetching cylinder containing acid liquor, after the microetching treatment, etching the oxidized part of the initial copper layer on the radar PCB, and soaking the acid-soaked radar PCB in a presoaking cylinder filled with a gloss agent containing accelerated particles to uniformly adhere the gloss agent to the surface and the holes of the radar PCB; and then, washing the whole radar PCB with the gloss agent once, enabling the washing direction of water flow to be parallel to the radar PCB, and removing the gloss agent on the surface of the radar PCB, so that the gloss agent with larger concentration exists in the hole, copper ions can be concentrated in the hole when copper is deposited by electroplating once, the copper thickness in the hole exceeds the surface copper, and the sunken area can be filled.
Further, the electroplating process in the step S52 adopts a vertical continuous electroplating line, and the transmission speed of the vertical continuous electroplating line is 0.3m/min.
Further, in the electroplating process in the step S52, the current coefficient adopted by the vertical continuous electroplating is 0.8 to 1.5, the current density is 10-12ASF, and the spraying frequency is 15 to 35Hz.
In the technical scheme, the electroplating process of the radar PCB still adopts vertical continuous electroplating, reduces the transmission speed of a vertical continuous electroplating line, and controls the transmission speed to be 0.3m/min, so that the radar PCB can slowly and uniformly contact with electroplating solution during electroplating spraying, the full deposition and matching are realized, and the electroplating quality of the whole radar PCB is improved; meanwhile, the current coefficient, the current density and the spraying frequency of the vertical continuous electroplating line are reduced, the electroplating uniformity is further improved by reducing the electroplating frequency and the moving speed of ions, the jet flow frequency is reduced, the electroplating time is prolonged, copper ions in the electroplating solution fully react with holes, and then micro blind holes in blind holes on a radar board PCB, areas with thicker hole walls and lower copper shielding, and the like can also be uniformly electroplated to avoid forming holes in the areas.
The beneficial effects of this technical scheme do: the outer layer dry film and the electroplating process in the MSAP manufacturing process of the radar board PCB are improved, the charge attraction of the area needing electroplating on the radar board PCB is balanced by adding the balance copper surface pattern which is not communicated with the antenna surface pattern and the peripheral pattern in the primary outer layer dry film process, particularly the charge attraction near the hole is increased, the quality and the efficiency of through hole electroplating and blind hole filling are improved, and the uniformity of electroplating copper increase is improved; in the subsequent electroplating process, all the patterns developed after the primary outer layer dry film process are electroplated and thickened, the copper layer deposited in the through hole is further thickened, the blind hole is filled, the primary outer layer dry film is removed after electroplating is finished, and the balance copper surface is etched and removed by adopting a secondary outer layer dry film process, so that the effect of integrating blind hole electroplating and filling and through hole electroplating is achieved, and meanwhile, the electroplating and filling quality is improved.
