Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A PCB according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes a plurality of unit PCBs arrayed on the PCB, and a sawing line formed among the plurality of unit PCBs. The sawing line disposed among the dummy unit PCBs is formed with a conductive pad including a first layer formed with a PSR (Photo Solder Resistor) and a second layer on which the PSR is removed to open the conductive pad. Burr generation on the unit PCBs during a sawing process is prevented and a dummy area can be reduced.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A PCB with burr prevention structure, the PCB comprising: a plurality of unit PCBs arrayed on the PCB; a plurality of dummy PCBs arranged at a periphery of the unit PCBs; a first sawing line formed among the plurality of unit PCBs; and a second sawing line formed among the plurality of dummy PCBs and connected to the first sawing line, wherein the second sawing line is formed with an ID (identification) mark for a sawing process of the PCB, wherein the ID mark includes a conductive pad comprising a first laver formed with a Photo Solder Resistor (PSR) and a second laver on which the PSR is removed at a predetermined area to open the conductive pad, and wherein the first sawing line is formed at each corner of the plurality of unit PCBs with a hole to inhibit the corner of the unit PCBs from being sharpened; wherein the first sawing line includes grooves formed at an upper surface and a bottom surface of the PCB. 2. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein each of the first sawing line and the second sawing line is formed with a groove. 3. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein each of the unit PCBs is a single layer PCB or a multilayer (build-up) PCB. 4. The PCB of claim 1 , wherein a width of each of the first sawing line and the second sawing line is less than 300 μm. 5. The PCB of claim 2 , wherein each groove is connected with the first sawing line and the second sawing line. 6. The PCB of claim 2 , wherein each groove is a V-shaped groove.
