HDI PCB

HDI PCB manufacturing for high-density designs

Laser-drilled microvias, sequential lamination, and 2/2 mil line-space capability — RCT builds HDI boards that escape 0.4 mm pitch BGAs without sacrificing reliability or schedule.

HDI process overview

Fine-pitch manufacturing, controlled end to end

HDI compresses routing into fewer layers using stacked or staggered microvias — but only if plating, registration, and laser drilling are held to tight tolerances. Our HDI lines combine CO₂ and UV laser drilling with VCP filled plating for consistent via reliability.

  • Stackups: 1+N+1, 2+N+2, 3+N+3, and any-layer (ELIC) structures.
  • Microvias: 75 μm laser vias, copper-filled and capped for via-in-pad.
  • Fine features: 2/2 mil trace/space, 0.25 mm BGA pitch escape.
  • Registration: LDI imaging and X-ray target drilling for layer-to-layer accuracy.
