Examples: a gold plating process of a contact leadless printed circuit board comprises the following steps:
and (3) dry film: exposing the region of the printed circuit board 10 which needs gold plating, covering a bonding pad which does not need gold plating by adopting a photosensitive dry film, and curing after polymerization of the photosensitive dry film by exposure treatment to avoid adhesion of Jin Nian nickel to the non-gold-plated region; namely, the non-gold-plated area is protected by covering the dry film on the area which does not need gold plating;
gold plating: the printed circuit board 10 to be plated with gold after the dry film treatment is conveyed to a gold plating groove, after aligning with a gold plating jig, a conductive spring probe 21 on the gold plating jig is contacted with the position of a gold plating finger of the printed circuit board, a gold plating procedure is started to plate gold for the gold finger 11 in a gold plating area, and after the gold plating is finished, the gold plating printed circuit board is conveyed out of the gold plating groove; namely, the conductive gold plating function is realized by using the external conductive spring probe 21 without the need of a conventional gold-plated wire; the gold plating tank is deepened in the process, so that one-time full-plate gold plating operation can be realized, and the gold plating efficiency can be improved by 100% compared with the existing gold plating mode;
removing the film: removing a dry film attached to the printed circuit board through a film removing wire; optionally, removing the gold-plated dry film attached to the PCB by using a stripping liquid medicine containing sodium hydroxide through a stripping line;
and (3) forming: the printed circuit board 10 after gold plating is subjected to beveling. The printed circuit board finished product is conveniently inserted into and pulled out of the clamping groove through bevel edge processing. Because no gold-plated lead is arranged in the process, the lead is not required to be cut off when the bevel edge is formed, and only the bevel edge is required to be chamfered, so that the gold-plated coated gold finger area on the whole four sides cannot be exposed with copper and nickel.
In order to adapt to partial severe environments, such as high temperature and high humidity, high acid and alkali, and electronic performance tolerance and stable quality in acidic and humid air environments. The customer puts forward the corrosion resistance requirement on the gold-plated finger, and after the bevel chamfer cutting processing, the tail end of the gold finger is exposed with copper and nickel, so that the conventional PCB lead gold-plating process cannot meet the corrosion resistance requirement. The four sides of the golden finger processed by the leadless gold plating process are plated with gold, namely, bare copper and nickel are not generated, so that the requirement of corrosion resistance can be met.
In the leadless gold plating process, the plated area of the tidy gold finger is reduced by about 6% compared with that of the gold finger with the lead, so that the gold plating and nickel plating noble metal cost can be saved; the leadless process can reduce the reworked bevel edge scrapping cost caused by the manual rubbing reworking of the bevel edge wire drawing in the bevel edge chamfering process, and cancel the online quality control in the bevel edge chamfering process, thereby reducing the labor cost of quality control; the leadless process reduces the two rubberizing processes in the traditional gold plating process, reduces the manual operations of gold plating rubberizing and manual rubberizing to open the conductive skylight, and reduces the cost of labor and adhesive tape.
As shown in fig. 1, the gold plating jig includes a probe conductive plate 20, on which a positioning spring probe 22 and the conductive spring probe 21 are disposed, the positioning spring probe 22 is used for fixing the printed circuit board 10, and the conductive spring probe 21 is used for electroplating the golden finger 11 on the printed circuit board. The traditional inscription type of the gold-plated wire is changed into the external contact type of the conductive spring probe, and the normal conductive gold-plating function is realized. The probe conducting plate is utilized to output current, and the output current is uniform, so that the uniformity of gold plating is improved, the traditional dummy finger current sharing design can be canceled, and the gold plating cost is reduced by about 3%. The spring in the conductive spring probe can ensure that the probe and the PCB golden finger have proper contact force, and the golden finger is prevented from being crushed. Accurate positioning of the PCB can be ensured by the positioning spring probes.
As shown in fig. 1, the probe card 20 is connected to a driving mechanism 23, and the driving mechanism 23 can control the probe card 20 to move toward the printed circuit board 10 or away from the printed circuit board 10. When gold plating is needed, the driving mechanism 23 drives the probe conducting plates 20 to run towards the direction of the PCB, namely, the driving mechanism 23 in FIG. 1 drives the probe conducting plates 20 on two sides to approach towards the middle PCB until the positioning spring probes 22 press the PCB, and the conductive spring probes 21 are contacted with the finger area to be gold plated on the PCB; after gold plating of the gold finger 11 is completed, the driving mechanism 23 drives the probe conducting plates 20 on two sides to move towards the direction away from the middle PCB, and the positioning spring probes 22 and the conducting spring probes 21 are separated from the PCB.
The probe conducting plate 20 is made of FR-4 material with the thickness of 2.0mm plus or minus 0.2mm, a conducting PTH through hole is processed on the probe conducting plate 20, the conducting spring probe 21 is welded in the through hole, and the conducting spring probe 21 is connected with an external power supply. FR-4 is glass fiber epoxy resin copper-clad plate.
The surface of the conductive spring probe 21 is coated with three-proofing paint, and the conductive spring probe 21 is contacted with a non-main area of the root of the golden finger of the printed circuit board. The three-proofing paint is a special formula paint used for protecting circuit boards and related equipment from being corroded by environment. The three-proofing paint has good high and low temperature resistance; the cured transparent protective film has excellent insulating, dampproof, anticreep, shockproof, dustproof, anticorrosive, ageing-proof, corona-proof and other performances.
In the gold plating process, the printed circuit board 10 to be gold plated is transferred to a gold plating bath by a transfer belt, and after the printed circuit board 10 is transferred to a predetermined position, the probe conductive plate 20 is moved toward the printed circuit board by the driving mechanism 23 until the conductive spring probe 21 contacts the finger root of the printed circuit board 10 to be gold plated while the positioning spring probe 22 fixes the printed circuit board 10.
In the gold plating process, after the gold plating is completed, the probe conductive plate 20 is moved by 50mm + -5 mm toward a direction away from the printed circuit board 10 under the action of the driving mechanism 23, and the conveyor belt sends the printed circuit board 10 after gold plating out of the gold plating tank.
The probe conductive plate 20 is equal to the printed circuit board 10 in size, all finger positions requiring gold plating are respectively contacted with one conductive spring probe 21, and the conductive spring probes 21 are connected with a conductive negative electrode. Therefore, the difference of high and low currents is avoided, the output currents of the probe conducting plates are uniform, and the design of current sharing of the fake finger can be canceled.
The probe conducting plate is as large as a PCB to be plated with gold, contact type conductive spring probes 21 are arranged on the probe conducting plate, all the conductive spring probes 21 are connected with conductive cathodes, the probe conducting plate is made of FR-4 material with the thickness of 2mm, conductive PTH through holes are processed at positions, corresponding to the PCB, of fingers to be plated with gold, the conductive spring probes 21 are welded in the through holes, and after the probes are installed, three-proofing paint is coated on the probes. When the PCB is operated, after the PCB is conveyed to a gold plating area of a gold plating groove along with the conveyor belt, the conveyor belt stops operating, the driving mechanism 23 drives the probe conducting plates 20 on two sides to approach towards the middle PCB until the positioning spring probes 22 press the PCB, the conducting spring probes 21 are contacted with the position of a finger to be plated on the PCB, current is conveyed, and gold plating operation is started; when the gold plating is finished, the driving mechanism 23 drives the probe conducting plates 20 on both sides to retreat 50mm toward the direction away from the middle PCB, and the conveyor belt runs to send the PCB out of the gold plating tank.
It should be noted that it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the application, which are all within the scope of the application. Accordingly, the scope of protection of the present application is to be determined by the appended claims.
