Chemical Nickel Gold Plated Boards Overview
Chemical Nickel Gold Plated Boards represent a surface treatment process commonly employed for printed circuit boards (PCBs) in high-end electronic products. The process involves chemically plating a layer of nickel (Ni) onto the copper surface of the PCB, followed by depositing a thin layer of gold (Au) onto the nickel layer.
Key Features of ENIG PCB
- Excellent Solderability: Features a smooth, flat surface suitable for fine-pitch component soldering.
- Strong Oxidation Resistance: The gold layer protects underlying nickel and copper from oxidation and corrosion.
- Superior Electrical Performance: Suitable for high-speed, high-frequency signal transmission.
- High Durability: Ideal for interfaces requiring frequent insertion/removal, such as gold fingers.
Application Areas of Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold Printed Circuit Board
- High-end computer motherboards and servers.
- Communication equipment.
- High-reliability electronics like storage devices and graphics cards.
- Gold fingers, BGAs, connectors, and similar components.
