What is HDI PCB?

An HDI board (High Density Interconnector) is a high-density interconnection PCB that uses micro via, blind and buried via, and laser drilling technologies to achieve fine lines and spaces of less than 50 μm, allowing for high routing density. It can significantly improve signal integrity and transmission speed, supporting advanced packages such as BGA. HDI boards are widely used in 5G communications, smartphones, aerospace, and automotive electronics, making them an ideal choice for miniaturized and high-performance electronic products.

Features of HDI PCB

Compact Design & Lightweight Architecture
  • With fine-pitch routing and laser-drilled microvias, HDI technology significantly reduces overall PCB thickness and board area when compared with traditional designs. This enables a higher component density within the same physical footprint and greatly improves internal space utilization. HDI boards are an ideal choice for miniaturized products such as smartphones, wearable electronics, compact medical instruments, and other devices that require powerful functionality in very limited space. Their lightweight structure also helps manufacturers achieve slimmer profiles and improved portability.

Enhanced Signal Integrity
  • HDI PCBs adopt shorter signal transmission paths and minimal stub lengths, which reduces signal attenuation, cross talk, and electromagnetic interference. The optimized routing architecture supports stable electrical performance even at very high frequencies. This provides strong assurance for high speed and high bandwidth applications, including 5G communication modules, radar systems, imaging sensors, and advanced automotive electronics. Users benefit from faster data throughput, lower latency, and improved reliability during continuous operation.

 Advanced Via Technology
  • Our HDI solutions incorporate blind vias, buried vias, stacked microvias, and via in pad structures to address the increasing complexity of modern circuits. These via technologies help maximize routing space across multilayer stack ups and support components with extremely high pin counts such as BGAs and CSP packages. By improving vertical interconnections within a reduced thickness, they allow greater functional density while maintaining excellent mechanical stability and consistent electrical performance.

 Superior Thermal Management & Reliability
  • The closely arranged components and optimized stacked via structure in HDI PCBs enhance heat conduction paths and increase overall thermal dissipation efficiency. These features help reduce temperature rise within dense assemblies and lower the risk of heat related failures. HDI boards also provide greater resistance to thermal cycling stress and minimize potential mechanical weak points. Their stable structure makes them highly suitable for mission critical environments in aerospace systems, industrial automation equipment, defense electronics, and other applications where long term durability is essential.
