Embedded Resistor PCB

An Embedded Resistor PCB (Tube machine high frequency PCB) is an advanced printed circuit board that integrates thin-film resistor elements directly within the internal dielectric layers, formed by vacuum sputtering/etching processes (e.g., tantalum nitride TaN or nickel-chromium NiCr). It eliminates surface-mounted devices (SMDs) to enhance circuit density, high-frequency performance, and reliability.
Core Characteristics:
1. Embedded Structure
Resistor layers between L2 to Ln-1 (non-surface)
Thickness: 0.1~5μm thin-film resistors
2. Material System
Resistive Films: TaN (25~250Ω/sq), NiCr (50~300Ω/sq)
Dielectrics: FR-4, polyimide, or HF laminates (e.g., Rogers 4350B, TSM-DS3)
3. Precision Manufacturing
Laser trimming tolerance: ±0.5% ~ ±1%
Resistance range: 10Ω~100kΩ per layer
