Now that you’ve learned about HDI PCBs, and if you’re willing to select a manufacturer for your next big electronics project, here are some services that you’ll need for your HDI PCB project.
1.HDI PCB Prototyping
You’ll have to begin with prototyping, where IBE Electronics will be of great help. IBE Electronics will help you prototype your idea, so it can be sent to the testing phase. The idea in your mind will be a raw or a draft, and it’s very important to test if it works perfectly. All the flaws and changes required in the circuit will be done at this stage. We’ll take the following steps in the prototyping stage:
a.We’ll determine how many layers are needed in the circuit board.
b.We’ll calculate the board thickness, its dimensions, thickness and weight of copper in the circuit board, etc.
c.After that, we’ll check how much tracing and spacing are needed.
d.Once that’s done, we’ll go for hole size determination, surface finishing, drilling, and proceeding to the board design.
2.HDI PCB Designing
Once the prototyping passes, you’ll have to finalize the design. At this stage, you’ll have to finalize what components will be used in the circuit, how they’ll be connected, etc. This is again, a very critical stage, where IBE Electronics will help you in the best possible manner. IBE Electronics excels in HDI PCB designing, and will help you get the most optimized design in the most professional manner. Design steps include:

Following is the process of HDI PCB:
Determine how many outer and inner layer we are needed.
Get in touch with the fabrication house to get all the dielectric information and choose all the materials to make the PCB stackup.
According to the layer thickness and counter, you need to decide on the via style, which will be utilized for the route signals right through the inner layers.
The first step of HDI manufacturing requires one lamination process, the most like an ordinary PCB board. Then after lamination, laser drill out layer to sub out layer.
In this type of HDI PCB, it requires to manage lamination stackup as normal symmetrical by engineers, but do not ruin the original electronics connection. And its complexity depends on the original design of PCB.
High Density Interconnect(HDI) PCB is a type of PCB that utilizes microvias to connect layers of the PCB and increase the number of interconnections per unit area.

If you have an electronics project in mind, you’ll need a printed circuit board. When it comes to printed circuit boards, HDI PCB is one fantastic choice that’ll help you get your complete circuit design idea printed on a hard chip.
Also called High Density Interconnects, HDIs are a type of printed circuit boards that follow high density of electronic components within a given area, hence called high density.
In this article, you’ll go through a miniature guide on HDI PCB and learn how you can procure HDI PCBs from one of the best manufacturer in the industry. Keep reading to get your hands on some compressed information in this guide.
In order to stack several layers in an HDI PCB, there should be some conductive holes, so the stacked layers stay intact. These holes are technically called PCB vias. Below are some types of vias that are used in HDI PCBs. Vias are drilled using lasers to achieve the most precise cut and clarity without damaging the circuit board.
1.Buried Vias
Buried vias are used to connect two adjacent layers of an HDI PCB. These two layers can be top 2, bottom two, or any two layers in the middle. The buried vias are invisible from the outside.
2.Blind Vias
Blind vias are drilled in such a way, that they connect an external layer with an internal layer of an HDI PCB. As a result, the via is visible from one side, which is why it’s called a blind via. The technique to implement a blind via in a circuit board is very difficult, which raises the cost of drilling blind vias in HDI PCBs.
3.Through-hole Vias
Through-hole vias are the easiest to construct, as the maker has to drill a hole from top to bottom. This type of via connects all the layers of an HDI PCB. Due to low complexity in the implementation, the through-hole via becomes highly cost effective and much favored by the clients.
a.Through-hole With Copper Pads
A through-hole via can have copper pads between each layer for better traction.
b.Through-hole without Copper Pads
In this type of through-hole via, there are no copper pads between the layers. Merely a long hole piercing through all the layers. This becomes more cost efficient due to absence of copper plates.
HDI PCBs have a long array of applications, that are briefed below:
1.Networking Devices
Networking devices such as routers, hubs, switches, etc., require a huge circuit and controlled size of the entire equipment. As a result, only an HDI PCB fits perfect in such situations where you can limit the entire PCB’s size without requiring to redesign your circuit.
2.Wearables
Wearables are small in size and the circuit size cannot be compromised. As a result, it’s best to use an HDI PCB to squeeze the entire circuit on a small piece of circuit board. That’ll help shrink the size of PCBs that can fit in small wearables. Wearables usually include smart glasses, smart watches, and sometimes wireless earphones too.
3.Consumer Electronics
Think of any consumer electronics, and there will be an HDI PCB inside it. HDI PCB is a perfect choice for consumer electronics, since the area that you can give to a circuit board is limited, as you also need to fit other hardware. For instance, in a smartphone, you can use an HDI PCB to give space to screen, camera, speakers, etc.
4.Aerospace
HDI PCBs are capable of tolerating extreme temperatures, which is why they become perfect for use in aircrafts and other aerospace technologies and machineries.
Signal integrity defines the quality of any electrical signal that flows in an electronic circuit. If there’s too much interference in the circuit board from internal or external sources, such as electromagnetic interference, etc., one can expect poor signal integrity. If the layers of circuit board are stacked, it can help achieve high signal integrity.
All the components are close to each other and the layers are stacked in HDI PCB. The stacked layers are stick together under high pressure, which reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. Owing to reduced interference in stack up designs, HDI PCBs experience better signal integrity followed by improved reliability in data transfer among the components.
You shall choose an HDI PCB manufacturer who qualifies for the following points:
Some features of a good manufacturer of HDI PCB are as follows:
1.A good maker always replies to their customers promptly, because good makers are always there for the betterment of their clients. No client likes rude manufacturers. Therefore, customer relationship management (CRM) is highly crucial.
2.A good manufacturer always gives a clear quotation to their clients and quotes all the prices fairly. It’s important for good manufacturers to understand that if the clients get a cost-effective quotation, they’ll give bulk orders, which will increase the business.
3.Good manufacturers always help their clients in case of crisis. If the clients need any help in any regard, a good manufacturer will help them out.
