    AUTOMOTIVE PCB MARKET BASED ON TYPE

     

    SINGLE LAYER PCBs

     A single-layer or single-sided PCB is one that is made out of a single layer of substrate or base material. One of the sides is coated with a thin layer of metal, e.g. Copper. Once the metal base plating is applied, a protective solder mask is typically used and at last, silk-screen to spot all the elements on the board.

     

    Since single-layer PCBs only have their various circuits and components soldered onto one side, they are easy to design and manufacture. For high-volume orders, they can be purchased at a low-cost. They are generally used for a variety of applications like calculators, radio, cameras, solid-state drives, printers and power supplies.

     

    DOUBLE-LAYER PCBs

     Double-layer/ double-sided PCBs use a thin layer of conductive metal like Copper, which is applied to both sides of the board. Holes are drilled through the board which allow circuits on one side of the board to connect to the other side.

     

    The circuits and components of a double-sided PCB are usually connected in one of two ways: either utilizing a through-hole using small wires or with the use of a surface-mount which has many short leads soldered directly to the board. This makes space to permit the board to complete more functions, usually at higher speeds and lighter weight than a through-hole board would allow.

     

    Instrumentation, HVAC systems, LED lighting, Automotive dashboards, Amplifiers and Vending machines.

     

    MULTI-LAYER PCB

    Multi-layer PCBs consist of three or more double-layered PCBs. These boards are secured together with a specialized glue and crammed between pieces of insulation to safeguard it from excess heat which can melt any of the components.

     

    Multi-layer PCBs come in a different size, starting from four layers to ten or twelve layers.

     

    Complicated electrical tasks require compact and elaborate designs of PCB. Applications f multi-layer PCBs include File servers, Data storage, GPS technology, Satellite systems, Weather analysis and Medical equipment.

     

    Apart from this Rigid PCBs, Flexible PCBs, Flex-Rigid PCBs, HDI PCBs, LED PCBs are also available in the market.

    AUTOMOTIVE PCB MARKET BASED ON APPLICATION

    Lighting. Because of low power consumption and high levels of efficiency, LED-based lighting is becoming popular. Generally, aluminium-backed PCBs are used to make them. These PCBs serve as heat sinks and permit for higher levels of heat transfer than a standard PCB. Similar aluminium-backed PCBs are used in both high-lumen LED applications and essential lighting solutions.

     

    Automotive and aerospace industries: Both the automotive and aerospace industries use flexible PCBs, which are designed to endure high-vibration environments. Depending on the specifications and design, they can also be very lightweight. They can adapt to tight spaces that might be present in various applications, such as inside the instrument panels or behind the instrument gauge on a dashboard.

     

    RECENT TRENDS

    1 Q4-2021 Kinwong  Kinwong world’s largest PCB supplier designed high layer count PCB for the 5G technology.
    2 Q4-2021 Nano Dimension Nano Dimension acquired a Switzerland based startup Essemtec for $25 million. 
    3 Q4-2021 OMRON OMRON introduced its new PCB inspection system, VT-S10 Series.

     

    Automation advancements are occurring in almost every industry. The demand for smaller and smaller goods with increased functionality, particularly in terms of routing traces, has led to the development of high-density interconnect. This functionality allows for fewer layers in the PCB stack-up and boosts signal transmission at high speeds.

     

    High-density connection PCBs ensure that high-speed signals are reliable. They are not only smaller and lighter than other PCBs, but they also provide a cleaner circuit route with a variety of routing alternatives. HDI manufacturing faces difficulties creating traces in such a way that a greater number of traces can be routed in a smaller area, causing concerns like noise and interference.

    NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

     

    In order to automate high-precision inspection procedures for PCB sub-assemblies and do away with the need for specialised operator skills, OMRON has launched the new PCB inspection system VT-S10 Series, which includes an industry-first imaging technology and AI.

     

    Inspection of in-vehicle PCB assemblies becomes more difficult with the rise in demand for the new global wireless standard 5G, electric vehicles (EVs), and autonomous driving.

     

    By enabling high-precision inspection of such crucial components, OMRON’s new VT-S10 solution helps to maintain and improve quality, which promotes security and safety.  

     

    Inspecting PCB assemblies comes with additional difficulties as they get smaller and denser. Traditional PCB inspection methods, for instance, have difficulty capturing precise images of solder forms, which restricts the inspection’s parameters and range of application.

     

    Employees are required to avoid close contact and movement on the production floor in order to stop the spread of COVID-19 while also dealing with a growing shortage of competent labourers.

     

    The number of visual inspections must be conducted less frequently as a result. In addition to increased inspection accuracy, other demands include lowered experience and skill requirements for the use of modern inspection equipment.  

     

    The product supply chain grows in areas where the demand from the automotive and 5G sectors rises. Therefore, shape inspection, such as that required by the IPC standard, becomes more crucial for preserving and raising inspection quality.

     

    The VT-S10 Series, which is outfitted with OMRON’s exclusive MDMC (Multi-Direction Multi-Colour) imaging technology, automatically optimises irradiation angles, colours, and light intensity of illumination during the inspection of the PCB assembly taking characteristics like the shapes of electronic components and soldering on the PCB into account. Initial experiments indicate that this new technology can cut the number of setup hours needed by people by about 70%. 

     

    Additionally, this PCB inspection system may use AI to automate examinations that up until now have relied solely on human perception, greatly enhancing inspection accuracy. The field of appearance and solder inspection has been a focus of OMRON for more than 30 years.

     

    The VT-S10 Series is the most recent solution from OMRON that best exemplifies the “innovative-Automation” idea through the integration of the broadest range of control devices and the application of AI fully knowledgeable in solder inspection.

     

    The company intends to keep modernising its production lines alongside its clients in the next few years. Expanding the scope and criteria for automated inspection will release operators from routine, repetitive work and allow them to work more creatively, thereby enhancing the security and safety of the community at large.
