Three-dimensional circuit assembly with composite bonded encapsulation
The disclosure provides a three-dimensional circuit assembly including a printed circuit board comprising a top film surface and a bottom film surface opposite to the top film surface. The three-dimensional circuit assembly may also include a first layer of a composite material bonded or laminated on the top film surface. The three-dimensional circuit assembly may further include a second layer of the composite material bonded or laminated on the bottom film surface of the printed circuit board.
1. A three-dimensional circuit assembly comprising:
a printed circuit board comprising a circuit between a top film and a bottom film opposite to the top film;
a first layer of a composite material bonded or laminated on the top film; and
a second layer of the composite material bonded or laminated on the bottom film of the printed circuit board, wherein the printed circuit board is encapsulated by the first layer and the second layer of the composite material.
2. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer of the composite material comprise carbon fibers embedded in a resin.
3. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 2 , wherein the resin is a thermoset resin.
4. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer of the composite material comprise glass fibers embedded in a resin.
5. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional circuit assembly is in a curved planar shape.
6. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a first fabric disposed over a top of the first layer of the composite material.
7. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a second fabric placed under a bottom of the second layer of the composite material.
8. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional circuit assembly is rigid.
9. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the three-dimensional circuit assembly is flexible or semi-flexible.
10. The three-dimensional circuit assembly of claim 1 , wherein the top film and the bottom film of the printed circuit board comprise polyimide.
