This 2-layer FR4 PCB balances space efficiency with robust performance for industrial control modules, sensor nodes, and low-power automation systems. With dimensions of 98.45×79.69mm and a 1.6mm thickness, the board offers a versatile platform for integrating microcontrollers, communication interfaces, and power components in a compact form factor. Constructed from FR4 material, it ensures stable electrical insulation (dielectric constant εr=4.5) and mechanical rigidity, suitable for operation in moderate-temperature industrial environments.

Layer Architecture & Electrical Design

  • 2-Layer Stackup:
    • Top and bottom signal layers with ground/power planes implemented via copper pours for basic EMI suppression.
    • Split power domains (e.g., 5V/3.3V) separated by isolation traces to minimize cross .
  • 1OZ (35μm) Copper Thickness:
    • Supports up to 8A current in power traces (≥1mm width) and fine-line routing (min line/space: 100μm/100μm) for signal integrity.
    • Copper pour areas on both layers reduce thermal hotspots in power-critical sections.

Industrial-Grade Features

  • Green LPI Solder Mask:
    • Standard industrial color for easy visual inspection and component identification.
    • Chemical resistance against common industrial contaminants and cleaning agents.
  • ENIG Surface Finish:
    • 3–5μm nickel layer prevents corrosion; 0.05–0.1μm gold layer ensures reliable solder joints for both SMT and DIP components.
  • SMT+DIP Mixed Assembly:
    • SMT: Accommodates 0402 passive components, SOIC/SSOP ICs, and 0.5mm pitch QFP packages.
    • DIP: Supports through-hole connectors (e.g., 0.1″ headers, terminal blocks) and relays for field wiring.

Manufacturing & Quality Control

  • Precision Fabrication:
    • Laser direct imaging (LDI) for 100μm trace accuracy; electrolytic copper plating with uniform thickness verification.
    • V-cut scoring for optional panelization in high-volume orders.
  • Rigorous Testing:
    • 100% automated optical inspection (AOI) for solder mask coverage and silkscreen clarity.
    • Flying probe testing for electrical continuity (≤0.1Ω) and isolation (≥100MΩ).
    • Thermal stress testing (260°C reflow cycles) to ensure solder joint reliability.
  • Standards Compliance:
    • IPC-6012 Class 2 for industrial electronics; RoHS/REACH compliant for lead-free manufacturing.

Industrial Applications

  • Industrial Sensor Nodes:
    Integrates temperature/humidity sensors, analog-to-digital converters, and wireless modules (Zigbee/Bluetooth).
  • Motor Driver Modules:
    Manages low-voltage DC motors with PWM control, current sensing, and overheat protection.
  • Communication Interfaces:
    Enables RS-232/485 to USB conversion or simple protocol bridges for legacy industrial equipment.
  • Power Distribution Blocks:
    Distributes 24V DC to multiple loads with circuit protection and status indication.
