First virtual operator package unveiled

First virtual operator package unveiled
The phone world is a virtual operator that mainly serves local Zhejiang and announced its "170" tariff package. This is the first debuted virtual operator tariff package in China. From the package content, the package is more focused on traffic, and the tariff level is similar to traditional operators.
There are 11 kinds of virtual operator business packages announced by the phone world, which are 29.9 yuan, 59.9 yuan, 79.9 yuan, A, 79.9 yuan, 99.9 yuan, 99.9 yuan, 139.9 yuan, and 179.9 yuan. , 229.9 yuan file, 299.9 yuan file and 399.9 yuan file, which A / B file respectively focus on more traffic and more voice. According to the introduction of the phone world, the overall package design concept is the main flow card, for young users, "the use of voice is not enough, traffic is not enough" situation, in the package will increase the proportion of traffic, the proportion of voice will be reduced.
It is understood that the package announced in the world of the phone is a telecommunications version. Compared with the package fee of local China Telecom in Zhejiang, the traffic does increase, but the voice is also significantly reduced. Therefore, it is difficult to say how much concessions there are. For example, the phone world 59.9 yuan package contains 260MB monthly traffic, 100 minutes of voice; and China Telecom enjoy 3G chat version 59 yuan package, giving 60M 3G Internet traffic, 10 hours WiFi Internet access time, 160 minutes domestic call length. In contrast, the phone world's package is less than 60 minutes of voice, an increase of 200M of Internet traffic, but no WiFi Internet access.
Because the virtual operator's voice and traffic resources are all wholesale from the traditional operators, and the wholesale price is not low, so for the virtual operators transformed from traditional enterprises, the price reduction is not much room. However, with the entry of some virtual operators with internet background, there may be big discount on the tariff. For example, JD.com stated that its virtual operator business will offer generous discounts such as package donations that are difficult for traditional carriers to send, and pre-stored calls.
For users, nature is happy to see the "tariff battle," but for those virtual operators who do not have an Internet background, this is not a good thing. A virtual operator who switched from the retail channel expressed his concern to reporters: “Jingdong and Ali have obtained licenses, and Baidu has to apply for licenses. Once these Internet giants start to compete for money, they can call for free. It's possible that the Internet will come out, and we can't play like this."

6 Layer PCB - stackup & prototype & price & manufacturing


What is 6 Layer PCB?


6 layer PCB Board is, in general, a 4 Layer PCB Board with 2 extra signal layers added between the planes. The 6-layer PCB classic stackup includes 4 routing layers (2 outer layers + 2 internal layers) and 2 internal planes (one for ground and the other for power). This enhances the EMI dramatically by offering 2 buried layers for high-speed signals and 2 surface layers for routing low-speed signals. The signal layers should be closed to the adjacent planes.

Jinghongyi PCB has been committed to the production of multi-layer PCB and Prototype PCB for nearly 10 years. The largest number of multi-layer Printed Circuit Boards for customers are 4-layer, 6-layer, 8-layer, 10 layer, 12 Layer PCB and above. In order to ensure the quality of PCB products, we constantly improve and upgrade the production process. PCB surface treatment technology has hot air leveling(HASL), OSP, electroless nickel, immersion gold, immersion silver, immersion tin and so on.

The Printed Circuit Board is basically composed of the pad, via, solder mask layer, silkscreen layer, copper wire, and other parts. Among them, solder mask refers to the part covered by ink on PCB. Because most PCB uses green ink, the green ink part that can be seen is solder mask. The role of the solder mask in controlling the reflow welding process is very important. In addition to green ink, the welding layer can According to the different needs of customers, and can also be customized in a variety of colors, such as green, blue, black, red, white, yellow, purple. Of course, the price will vary with the color of the solder mask. Green oil is the one with low price and stable quality, which is also the reason why green oil is most used. The price of black oil, red oil, and white oil is almost the same, slightly more expensive than green oil, and the price of rare inks such as yellow and violet oil is the highest. In addition to the color of the solder resist ink, there are also matte and bright, matte ink color.

6 Layer PCB Stackup and Design

What is PCB stack UP?

PCB Stack up refers to the arrangement of copper and insulation layers that make up PCB before the layout design of circuit board. Although stacking allows you to get more circuits on a single board through various PCB layers, the structure of PCB stacking design has many other advantages:

  • The PCB layer stack can help you minimize circuit noise and radiation and reduce impedance and crosstalk problems in high-speed PCB layouts.


  • A good stacked PCB stack can also help you balance the need for low-cost, efficient manufacturing methods and focus on signal integrity issues.


  • Proper PCB stacking can enhance the electromagnetic compatibility of your design.


  • For PCB-based applications, stacked PCB configurations are usually good for you.




Why do PCBs stack up?


The irreversible development of modern electronic products has increasingly pushed PCB towards such needs as miniaturization, light weight, high speed, better functionality and reliability, and longer life, which has led to the popularity of multi-layer PCB. Two or more Single Sided PCB and/or Double Sided PCB are stacked together by a combination of semi-solid adhesives called "prepregs" to form multilayer PCBs through reliable predefined interconnections between them. There are three or more conductive layers in a Multilayer PCB , two of which are outside, and one is synthesized in an insulating board. With the increasing complexity and density of PCB, some problems may arise, such as noise.


One of the most important factors to determine the performance of product electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is to plan the optimal multi-layer stack up. The carefully designed cascade can minimize radiation and prevent the circuit from being disturbed by external noise sources. Good stacked PCB substrates can also reduce signal crosstalk and impedance mismatch. However, poorer stacking may increase EMI radiation, because impedance mismatch will lead to reflection and ringing in the system, which will greatly reduce the performance and reliability of the product. Then, this article will focus on the layer stack definition, design rules and basic considerations.

Most six-layer PCB consist of four signal routing layers and two planes. From an EMC perspective, a 6-layer Printed circuit board is usually better than a 4 Layer PCB board.




6 Layer PCB Stackup

One stack-up NOT to use on a six-layer PCB board is the one shown in Figure 1.  The planes provide no shielding for the signal layers, and two of the signal layers (1 and 6) are not adjacent to a plane.  The only time this arrangement works even moderately well is if all the high frequency signals are routed on layers 2 and 5 and only very low frequency signals, or better yet no signals at all (just mounting pads), are routed on layers 1 and 6.  If used, any unused area on layers 1 and 6 should be provided with "ground fill" and tied into the primary ground plane, with vias, at as many locations as possible.

One of the stackup methods of 6-layer PCB

This configuration satisfies only one of our original objectives. 

With six layers available the principle of providing two buried layers for high-speed signals is easily implemented as shown in Fig. 2.  This configuration also provides two surface layers for routing low speed signals.

 Less common 6 layer PCB stackup

Fig. 2  Less common 6 layer PCB stackup


This is a probably the most common 6 layer PCB stack-up and can be very effective in controlling emissions, if done correctly.  This configuration satisfies objectives 1, 2, & 4 but not objectives 3 & 5.  Its main drawback is the separation of the power and ground planes.  Due to this separation there is no significant interplane capacitance between power and ground  Therefore, the decoupling must be designed very carefully to account for this fact.

Not nearly as common, but a good performing stack-up for a six-layer PCB is shown in Fig. 2.

H1 indicates the horizontal routing layer for signal 1, and V1 indicates the vertical routing layer for signal 1.  H2 and V2 represent the same for signal 2.  This configuration has the advantage that orthogonal routed signals always reference the same plane. The disadvantage is that the signals on layer one and six are not shielded.  Therefore the signal layers should be placed very close to their adjacent planes, and the desired board thickness made up by the use of a thicker center core.  Typical spacing for a 0.060" thick board might be 0.005"/0.005"/0.040"/0.005"/0.005".  This configuration satisfies objectives 1 and 2, but not 3, 4, or 5. 

Another excellent performing six-layer PCB board stackup is shown in Fig. 4. It provides two buried signal layers and adjacent power and ground planes and satisfies all five objectives.  The big disadvantage, however, is that it only has two routing layers -- so it is not often used.

It is easier to achieve good EMC performance with a six-layer circuit board  than with a four-layer circuit board.  We also have the advantage of four signal routing layers instead of being limited to just two.  As was the case for 4 layer PCB boards, it is possible to satisfy four of our five objectives with a six-layer PCB.  All five objectives can be satisfied if we limit ourselves to only two signal routing layers.  The configurations of Figures 2, 3, and 4 all can all be made to perform very well from an EMC point of view.
