High TG PCB
It is well known that the base material (polymer or glass) is changing from a glassy, solid, rigid state to a rubbery state when the temperature rises to a specific value, hence the temperature at this point is called the glass transition temperature (Tg). That being said, Tg is the mechanical property that specifies the glass transition temperature, which is the maximum temperature at which the glass will remain rigid. In other words, ordinary PCB substrates will not only soften, deform, and melt at high temperature, but their mechanical and electrical properties will also deteriorate dramatically, affecting the service life of the product.
Normal PCBFR4-Tg is 130-140℃, middle Tg is higher than 150-160 ℃, and high Tg is higher than 170 ℃. High FR4-PCB Tgprovides better mechanical and chemical resistance to heat and moisture than standard FR4 PCB. The higher the Tg value, the better the heat resistance and moisture resistance of the material, therefore, especially in lead-free process, the higher the Tg in PCB.
Performance of high Tg PCB
With the rapid development of the electronics industry, high temperature Tg materials are widely used in computers, communication equipment, precision instruments, and instrumentation. In order to achieve highly functional, multilayer development, PCB substrate materials are required to be more heat resistant. Furthermore, due to the emergence and development of high-density mounting technology represented by SMT and CMT, PCBs are increasingly inseparable from the substrate heat resistance in terms of small aperture, fine circuit and being thinner. Therefore, the differences between normal FR4 and high FR4-Tg lie in mechanical strength, adhesion, water absorption, dimensional stability, thermal decomposition in the thermal state (especially after water absorption) under different conditions (for example, thermal expansion). It is evident that high Tg PCBs are better than ordinary PCB substrate materials. As a result, the demand of high Tg PCBs has been growing in in recent years, but it is more expensive than standard PCB circuit board sheet.
What's more, high Tg materials are also popular in the LED lighting industry because LEDs have a higher dissipation rate than ordinary electronic components, but the same construction of FR4 PCBs is much cheaper than the metal core printed circuit board such as aluminium-core PCBs.
The advantages of high Tg PCB
If the Tg of the PCB substrate is increased, it will automatically improve the heat resistance, chemical resistance, humidity resistance, and device stability.
If the device has a high power density and fairly high heat generation, then a high Tg PCB would be an excellent solution for heat management.
When reducing heat generation from ordinary boards, larger printed circuit boards can be used to change the design and power requirements of the equipment, and high Tg PCBs can also be adopted.
As the multi layer circuit board and HDI PCB are more compact and have dense circuit, more heat dissipation will be generated. Therefore, high Tg PCBs are often used for multilayers and HDI PCBs to ensure PCB manufacturing reliability.
When do we need a high Tg PCB?
If your PCB cannot withstand a thermal load of any less than Tg 25℃, your application will require a high Tg PCB. In addition, if your product operates in the temperature range of 130 ℃ or higher, it can ensure the safety of using high Tg PCBs. The main reason for the high Tg PCB is to switch to RoHS PCB. Thus, more and more PCB industries are turning to use high Tg materials, as higher temperatures are required for lead-free solder.
High Tg PCB application areas
The high Tg PCB will be the best solution if the power density in the electronics is higher, and the heat generation interferes with the heat sink or other parts of the product. Besides, with the popularity of high Tg PCBs in recent years, you will find Tg PCBs being used in the electronics industry, where they can operate at higher temperature. Therefore, we meet the needs of our customers in different industries by offering high Tg PCBs with high heat resistance that meet customer specifications in a short lead time.
