Extra Thin PCB

by Ronak Circuits

This extra thin printed circuit means the thickness of printed circuit board is more thin than normal PCB. For most of FR4 PCB, Min thickness is 0.3mm or 0.4mm, whatever it is 1L or 2L. For 4L, it will be more about 0.6mm.

But sometimes, limited to space or margin, or needed by design purpose, people needs extra thin such as 0.25mm, 0.20mm, or even 0.15mm board, so that PCB can be used in such as SIM card, sensor card, and so on. Extra thin FR4 PCB can be bendable similar like a flexible circuit, but more rigid, and cost will be lower, comparing with the same copper traces.

  • Base material: FR4
  • Board Thickness: 0.1mm~0.3mm (0.004''~0.012'')
  • Copper thickness: 0.5 OZ, 1.0 OZ
  • Outline: Routing, punching, V-Cut
  • Soldermask: Bare/White/Black/Blue/Green/Red Oil
  • Legend Color: Black/White
  • Surface finishing: Immersion Gold, HASL, OSP
  • Max Panel size: 600*500mm (23.62'' * 19.68'')

Note: For extra thin PCB, we can make it at 0.15mm, 0.20mm, 0.25mm, 0.30mm, with or without the soldermask, and copper thickness 1/2OZ, 1OZ.

Heavy Copper PCB

The minimum width and thickness of a heavy copper PCB conductor is determined primarily on the basis of the current carrying capacity required and the maximum permissible conductor temperature rise. A circuit board trace, depending on its size and manufacturing process, may not be rectangular in shape. Heavy copper conductors can significantly add to the overall board thickness. Additive (plating) processes are preferred to subtractive (etching) processes but are more expensive. Typical conductor width/spacing/thickness tolerance is +/-20%.

  • Base material: FR4/Aluminum
  • Copper thickness: 4 OZ~10 OZ
  • Extreme Heavy Copper: 20~200 OZ
  • Outline: Routing, punching, V-Cut
  • Solder mask: White/Black/Blue/Green/Red Oil
  • Surface finishing: Immersion Gold, HASL, OSP
  • Max Panel size: 580*480mm (22.8'' * 18.9'')

Heavy Copper Board does not have a set of definition per IPC. According to PCB industry, however, people generally use this name to identify a printed circuit board with copper conductors 3 oz/ft² - 10 oz/ft² in inner and/or outer layers. Extreme heavy copper PCB refers to 20 oz/ft² to 200 oz/ft² printed circuit board. Heavy copper normally used for high power distribution, heat dissipation, planar transformers, power converters, and so on.

RF Boards

RF board stands for Radio Frequency Printed Circuit Boards. The frequency for RF board is normally between 300MHz ~ 3GHz, or much bigger, so normally FR4 board cannot meet the requirements, so we need to use special material to achieve the high frequency and we named this kind of boards as RF boards. RF board is excellent in high frequency performance due to its low dielectric tolerance and loss of material. The fabricate process is similar like FR4, but the copper plating is more complex than FR4, because material characteristics, it’s much harder to metalize the through hole (copper plating), and other process is complex than FR4, so need unique handling method and experienced workers.

High Frequency Materials Supported:
  • Rogers Substrates: Copper from 1/4 OZ to 2 OZ (e.g. RO4233, RO4350, RO4003).
  • PTFE Materials: DuPont Teflon high-frequency substrates.

High TG PCB

Tg means Glass Transition Temperature. As flammability of printed circuit board (PCB) is V-0 (UL 94-V0), so if the temperature exceeds designated Tg value, the board will changed from glassy state to rubbery state and then the function of PCB will be affected. If working temperature of your product is higher than normal (130-140C), then have to use high Tg material which is > 170C. and popular PCB high value are 170C, 175C, and 180C.

Normally the PCB Tg value should be at least 10-20C higher than working temperature of product. If you use 130TG board, working temperature will be lower than 110C; if use 170 high TG board, then maximum working temperature should be lower than 150C.

Extra Thin Heavy Copper RF PCBs : Specialized Solutions India

To satisfy specific PCB needs, manufacturers must be ready to move beyond typical portfolios. Ronak Circuits tackles specific design issues in India's cutting-edge electronics sector and is a specialist in every unusual variation. Innovative form factors are made possible by Extra Thin PCB technology. For consumer electronics looking for ever-slimmer profiles, medical equipment needing sub-1mm board thickness, and aerospace instruments needing weight reduction, our ability to decrease conventional 1.6mm boards to 0.2-0.4mm without sacrificing mechanical integrity is essential. When conventional copper weight (1 oz) is insufficient for power distribution modules, high-amperage switching circuits, and battery management systems, heavy copper PCBs are utilized in high-current applications. Ronak Circuits uses specialist reverse-treat foil and countersink techniques to achieve the 2 oz to 10 oz copper thickness needed for these applications, ensuring great mechanical strength and current capacity. RF boards need controlled dielectric properties, impedance control, and certain materials to transmit high-frequency signals without attenuation (Rogers, Isola). The deployment of 5G infrastructure, radar systems, satellite communications, and telecommunications all benefit from our expertise in RF PCB manufacturing.

High TG PCB materials (glass transition temperature more than 170°C) alleviate thermal stress in lead-free assembly conditions where conventional FR-4 approaches temperature constraints. Every RoHS PCB manufactured in India uses eco-friendly procedures, halogen-free materials, and lead-free surface treatments to comply with both Indian environmental requirements and EU RoHS legislation. Our specialist PCB capabilities incorporate RF-grade materials with regulated impedance, Extra Thin PCB architectures with heavy copper distribution, high TG materials facilitating lead-free assembly, and RoHS PCBs in India across all versions. Whether creating consumer goods that optimize thermal performance through high TG material selection, military systems that need aerospace-grade dependability, or medical implants that need biocompatibility certification, Ronak Circuits' specialist PCB solutions provide technological leadership. We are positioned as India's all-inclusive specialty PCB manufacturer due to our manufacturing capabilities in these difficult variants where standard solutions fall short.
