Advanced HDI PCB Stackup & Microvia Technology

Figure 1: High-precision UV/CO2 laser drilling systems in JS Circuit’s class-1000 cleanroom Executive Summary As medical diagnostics and wearables shrink, traditional through-hole vias become major bottlenecks for signal routing and routing density. High-Density Interconnect (HDI) technology solves this via sequential lamination and laser-drilled microvias. This whitepaper analyzes the mechanical limits, plating physics, and thermal reliability […]

What Is an HDI PCB vs a Standard Rigid PCB? Microvias, Fine Pitch, and Medical-Grade Density

HDI

Quick Summary An HDI PCB (High-Density Interconnect PCB) achieves routing density that a standard rigid PCB cannot by using microvias, finer trace/space, and build-up layer structures that support fine-pitch components. In U.S. medical devices, HDI is most valuable when the design must shrink, carry more channels, or improve signal integrity while staying reliable under thermal […]
