HDI-RF & Commercial PCB Design

HDI microvias · RF/microwave to 40 GHz · SERDES to 112 Gbps

At high speeds, little things become big problems—reflections, insertion loss, mode conversion, and EMI can tank margins and spin debug loops. We design HDI + RF boards that behave: controlled-impedance stackups, stitched return paths, microvias/back-drill to kill stubs, and clean routing that keeps eyes open and emissions in check.

HDI & RF FAQs

What is HDI PCB design?

High-density interconnect using microvias, blind/buried/stacked vias, and tight rules to route fine-pitch BGAs with controlled impedance.

Do you design hybrid stackups?

Yes — balanced microstrip/stripline stacks with even/odd layers, tuned for SI/PI and EMI/EMC.

How fine a pitch can you handle?

Down to 0.315 / 0.4 mm BGA pitch with microvias and via-in-pad as required.

Do you remove via stubs?

Yes, back-drill on through-hole vias or blind/buried/stacked microvias to eliminate stubs and improve IL/RL.

What RF PCB layout range do you support?

Layout and verification for RF/microwave to 40 GHz, with SERDES channels to 112 Gbps.

How do you control impedance and crosstalk?

±5% impedance targets, stitched returns, spacing by frequency, and simulation of IL/RL, TDR, and crosstalk (NEXT/FEXT).

What deliverables do we receive?

Stackup & constraints, Gerbers/ODB++, drill files, fab/assembly notes, and (if requested) simulation plots.

Typical lead time?

About 1–3 weeks, depending on complexity and review cycles.

Regions served?

We serve globally, primarily the USA, plus Canada, Europe, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Germany, and Japan.

NDA & confidentiality?

Absolutely — we work under your NDA and keep data protected.
