Blind Via PCB

ZF Electronics, as one of the top custom circuit board manufacturers and pcb
manufacturing companies in China, can provide customers with single-sided PCB,
double-sided FR4 PCB, metal core PCB, heavy copper PCB, rigid PCB and rigid-
flex PCB.

As the name suggests, blind via cannot be seen. Blind via buried viais the via
that connects the surface layer and the inner layer without penetrating the
entire board. In order to increase the space utilization of the PCB circuit
layer, the blind via is produced. Blind via in pcb is located on the top and
bottom surfaces of the printed circuit board and has a certain depth. It is
used to connect the surface circuit and the underlying inner circuit and the
depth of the hole usually does not exceed a certain ratio (aperture).

How to manufacture blind via PCB?
The hdi vias PCB production method requires special attention to the depth of
the drilling (Z-axis) to be just right. If you do not pay attention to it, it
will cause difficulties in electroplating in the via, so almost no factory
adopts it. You can also put the circuit layer that needs to be connected in
advance in the individual circuit layer. The blind and buried vias are drilled
first, and then glued together, but more precise positioning and alignment
devices are required.

The line width and line spacing of most process equipment: blind via 0.1mm,
0.125mm, 0.15mm.

Difference between blind via and plating through blind via hole PCB
From the processing point of view, through hole circuit board PCB and blind via
and buried via hole PCB have different requirements for cutting tools in terms
of chip removal ability. The processing of blind buried vias makes it easy for
the cutting tool to be buried in iron chips, so better chip removal performance
is required.

It is better to use spiral flute taps to machine blind holes, instead of
straight flutes, it is easy to block chips and cause tool breakage.

For drilling and blind hole processing, it is best to use an internally cooled
central water outlet drill bit. With the central water outlet effect of the
machine tool, the iron filings can be forced off by the coolant pressure, so
that the iron filings will not be entangled and blocked, which leads to over-
tolerance in machining and breakage of tools.

The boring is the same as the drilling, and it is best to use the center
outlet.

But the above statement is not absolute espeically when you want custom made
pcb boards. It mainly depends on the depth-to-diameter ratio of the blind via
aspect ratio. If the shallow hole is processed, it can also be used as a
general plating through hole PCB processing tool.
