Our High Tg PCB Fabrication Process
At Mega Plus PCB, we employ a highly controlled, multi-step process to ensure the quality, reliability, and consistency of every high Tg PCB we manufacture. Here's a detailed look at our fabrication process:
1
Design Review & Stackup Optimization
Our engineering team meticulously analyzes the Gerber files, ensuring that the design meets both electrical and thermal requirements. During this phase, we optimize the PCB stackup by selecting the right combination of materials and layers that offer the best thermal resistance and electrical performance.
2
Material Preparation & Lamination
In this stage, we prepare high Tg FR4 laminates. These FR4 and prepreg layers are laminated under high pressure and temperature, which allows the prepreg resin to bond the layers firmly, providing the necessary thermal stability and durability.
3
Precision Drilling, Plating & Etching
We then proceed with precision drilling, using high-accuracy CNC machines to create holes for vias, which are essential for electrical connections between different layers of the PCB. After drilling, we use advanced etching techniques to remove excess copper, creating the intricate circuit traces that define the functionality of the PCB.
4
Surface Finish & Solder Mask Application
After etching, a protective solder mask is applied to prevent accidental short circuits and environmental damage. The solder mask also ensures precise soldering during assembly. For the surface finish, we offer multiple options, including ENIG, HASL, OSP, and immersion tin to protect the PCB’s copper and enhance solderability.
5
Inspection & Electrical Testing
Each high Tg PCB undergoes rigorous quality control. We use AOI, X-ray inspection, microsection testing, and electrical testing to ensure that every board meets high standards of performance with no defects or malfunctions.

FAQs
What is the difference between high Tg PCBs and regular PCBs?
High Tg PCBs have a higher glass transition temperature, meaning they can withstand higher temperatures without losing their integrity. Regular PCBs are more prone to deformation at high temperatures.
How do high Tg PCBs improve product reliability in long-term use?
High Tg PCBs reduce the risk of layer separation, warping, and thermal breakdown. This improves overall product lifespan, especially in applications exposed to repeated heating and cooling cycles over extended periods.
Are high Tg PCBs suitable for compact electronic device designs?
Yes, they are widely used in compact and densely packed electronic systems. Their thermal resistance and mechanical stability make them ideal for miniaturized devices requiring reliable heat management.
