China Chaosheng Electronics' HTCC alloy enclosure gold PCB
* * is a high-end packaging substrate technology that uses HTCC high-temperature co fired ceramics * * as the substrate, Kovar alloy enclosure * * to construct a three-dimensional cavity, and surface * * electroplated gold * * to complete metalization. Its core is used for packaging high reliability, high airtightness, high-power/high-frequency * * devices, and is a core material in the fields of optical communication, semiconductor, aerospace, etc.
1、 Core Definition and Value Positioning
-HTCC substrate: Made of Al ₂ O ∝ or AlN ceramics co fired at 1500-1800 ℃, it combines high thermal conductivity (AlN can reach 170+W/m · K), low thermal expansion (CTE matching chip), high strength, and chemical stability.
-Alloy dam: The mainstream use of Kovar alloy (4J29/Kovar) is matched with the thermal expansion height of ceramic/glass (4.6-5.8 × 10 ⁻⁶/℃), which solves the problems of thermal stress and air leakage, and provides a high rigidity and high gas sealing foundation for the cavity.
-Electroplated Gold Surface: Electroplated gold is applied to the entire surface or key areas (solder pads/dam top surfaces) to achieve low contact resistance, high weldability, corrosion resistance, and high frequency low loss. It is suitable for high-end packaging processes such as gold wire bonding and gold tin eutectic soldering.
-* * Core Value * *: Integrated construction of "ceramic substrate+alloy cavity+gold layer interconnection", meeting * * airtight packaging * * (≤ 10 ⁻⁸ Pa · m ³/s), * * extreme temperature * * (-55 ℃~250 ℃+), * * high-power heat dissipation * * and * * long-term reliability * * requirements.

|* * Substrate * * | Al ₂ O ∝/AlN Ceramic | Bearing, Insulation, Heat Dissipation | AlN Thermal Conductivity 170-200 W/m · K; CTE 4.0–7.0×10⁻⁶/℃ |
|Surrounding dam * * | Kovar alloy (4J29) | Chamber forming, thermal expansion matching, airtight sealing | Expansion coefficient synchronized with ceramic/glass; Tensile strength ≥ 500 MPa|
|* * Metalization * * | Gold layer (Au)+nickel barrier layer (Ni) | Low resistance interconnect, solderable, corrosion-resistant, diffusion resistant | Gold purity ≥ 99.99%; Nickel layer 3-5 μ m; Gold layer 0.05-0.2 μ m (solder pad)|
|* * Internal Interconnection * * | W/Mo/Mn Metal Paste | Inter layer 3D Interconnection | Line Width/Spacing 30-50 μ m; Through-hole diameter 50-100 μ m|
3、 Standard process flow
1. Preparation of raw ceramic tape: ceramic powder+binder → ball milling into slurry → casting into shape → drying to obtain raw ceramic tiles.
2. Interlayer processing: Drilling/slotting → screen printing W/Mo metal paste (lines+through holes) → low-temperature drying.
3. Co firing Forming: Multi layer stacking → Hot pressing → High temperature co firing at around 1600 ℃, ceramic densification and metallization are completed simultaneously.

6、 Technical difficulties and quality control
-* * Core Challenge * *:
-Co firing shrinkage control (15% -20%) makes it difficult to control dimensional accuracy and warpage.
-The thermal expansion matching and welding interface strength of Kovar dam and HTCC.
-Uniformity, adhesion, and diffusion prevention of the electroplated layer (key to nickel layer).
-Verification of chamber airtightness and long-term reliability.

-Size: The height/width error of the dam is ≤ 10 μ m, and the flatness is ≤ 0.05 mm.
-Reliability: Temperature cycling, thermal shock, salt spray, vibration testing, meeting MIL-STD-883 standard.
7、 Difference from LTCC/Sapphire PCB
HTCC alloy dam enclosure electric metal: high-temperature co firing, suitable for high-power/high reliability/airtight packaging, high cost. LTCC: Low temperature co firing (850-900 ℃), suitable for high frequency/miniaturization, with relatively low cost. Sapphire PCB: Single crystal alumina substrate, optically transparent, ultra-high hardness, suitable for optoelectronic/extreme heat dissipation scenarios, with the highest cost. Summary: HTCC alloy dam enclosure electric metal PCB is an integrated solution for high-end packaging. It is based on HTCC, has a deformable dam enclosure cavity, and is interconnected with electric metal, forming an irreplaceable comprehensive advantage in airtightness, heat dissipation, high frequency, and reliability, supporting the core performance and long-term stable operation of cutting-edge electronic devices.
