Electroplating edge connector pins of printed circuit boards without using tie bars

A method for forming a printed circuit board includes: forming on a substrate a first conductive layer for a first edge connector pin and a first conductive layer for a second edge connector pin, wherein the first conductive layer for the first edge connector pin and the first conductive layer for t...

Zusammenfassung:A method for forming a printed circuit board includes: forming on a substrate a first conductive layer for a first edge connector pin and a first conductive layer for a second edge connector pin, wherein the first conductive layer for the first edge connector pin and the first conductive layer for the second edge connector pin are electrically coupled to one another via a first conductive layer for an electrical bridging element; electroplating a second conductive layer onto both the first conductive layer for the first edge connector pin and the first conductive layer for the second edge connector pin via a plating current conductor; and removing at least a portion of the electrical bridging element to electrically separate the first edge connector pin from the second edge connector pin.
