We specialize in producing larger format printed circuit boards that are used as backbones for connecting several PCBs together to ultimately form a computer bus. Typically, they do not contain active components; rather, they serve as a connection centre between active duty PCBs. Our back plane PCBs often incorporate a wide variety of features including blind / buried vias, high-speed / high-signal integrity materials, back drilling, and controlled impedance.
Backplane PCBs form the backbone of a system such as control panels for various industrial, computing, & military use. They provide greater reliability in connecting multiple PCBs due to their static nature, as opposed to cables that need to be flexed every time a card is removed, thereby reducing the life of that component/connection.
We provide services from quick turn prototype through mass PCB production in Backplane board, meeting the customer lead- time to market requirements. We thrive in a high mix, quick turn environment.
