In the era of 5G mmWave, foldable displays, and compact ADAS radar—where devices demand ultra-dense wiring and 3D flexibility—traditional rigid HDI boards or basic flex PCBs fall short. Our HDI Rigid-Flex PCB solves this gap by integrating High-Density Interconnect (HDI) microvia technology with rigid-flex construction, delivering the precision to support high-speed signals and the adaptability to fit complex form factors—all while cutting device size and improving reliability.
Every board is built to our technical specifications, with a focus on the unique needs of high-density, high-performance applications:
Rigid regions use High-Tg FR4 (Tg≥170℃) for stable component mounting, or low-loss high-frequency laminates (dielectric constant 3.5±0.1 @10GHz) to minimize signal attenuation in 5G/mmWave systems. Flexible sections rely on adhesiveless polyimide (PI, Dk 3.4–3.6 @1MHz) for durable bending, or liquid crystal polymer (LCP, Dk 3.7±0.2 @10GHz) for ultra-high-frequency stability—critical for 25Gbps+ data transfer.
With 6–18 total layers (typical 6 rigid + 2 flexible), the PCB features laser-drilled microvias as small as 0.04mm (hole wall roughness ≤1μm)—enabling 2x more component density than standard rigid-flex boards. Rigid sections (0.6–1.4mm thick) secure chips and connectors, while thin flexible sections (0.08–0.25mm) fold or curve to fit tight spaces, eliminating bulky cables and reducing assembly complexity.
Choose ENIG (for corrosion resistance in medical/automotive environments), Immersion Silver (for high-speed signal integrity), or OSP (for cost-effective consumer electronics). Selective hard gold plating is available for high-wear contact pads—ideal for ADAS radar connectors that need repeated mating.
Our design prioritizes the unique demands of high-density, flexible systems—setting it apart from basic rigid-flex or standard HDI:
Tight ±6% impedance control ensures stable transmission of 25Gbps signals (e.g., 5G mmWave, HDMI 2.1), while low-variation dielectric materials (LCP/high-frequency FR4) reduce insertion loss by up to 30% vs. conventional PI-flex boards.
0.04mm microvias and 0.035mm line widths/line gaps let you pack more components (e.g., sensors, ICs) into a smaller footprint—cutting device size by 40% compared to rigid HDI boards with the same functionality.
Operates from -45℃ to +130℃, withstanding automotive underhood heat or aerospace temperature swings. Static applications (e.g., medical endoscopes) handle bending radii ≥5x the flexible layer thickness, while dynamic uses (e.g., foldable phone hinges) endure ≥10,000 cycles at ≥25x bending radius—no microvia cracking or signal drop.
Manufactured to IPC-2226A (HDI design) and IPC-6018F (rigid-flex) standards, with optional ISO 13485 (medical) and IATF 16949 (automotive) certifications. Every board undergoes 3D X-Ray inspection for microvia quality and bend testing to ensure durability.
