What Is A Backplane PCB?
A larger format of printed circuit board that is used as a backbone to connect several printed circuit boards together to form a complete computer system is called Backplane PCB.
A backplane PCB is a bunch of electric connectors that are in parallel connection with each other. That way, a pin of a connector is linked to the same pin of all connectors.
Backplane PCB
Backplane PCB generally do not have active components, however, they work as a center of connection for active duty printed circuit boards. This PCB includes features like high-speed integrity materials, blind vias, maintained impedance, back drilling, etc.
How Does A Backplane PCB Work?
Backplane PCB works as a group of electric connectors. The connectors are in a parallel connection with each other. Every pin of every connector connects with a common pin, that way all the pins are connected to the same pin.
Basically, Backplane PCB is a special kind of PCB that works as a supporting structure for connecting some other printed circuit boards. It adds stability and mechanical strength to the PCB board.
It also acts as a plane for integrating daughterboards. Daughterboards are other system components of the board.
Different daughterboards have different functions to perform on a board. Backplane PCBs are widely used and very versatile. The reason behind this is the ability to easily interchange different cards.
There are some other facts like modularity, scalability, and many more which make backplane PCBs a great choice. A signal from an external server enters the system, then enters a daughter card, and finally into the backplane PCB. The backplane PCB controls the signal as required to the output.
We all want faster speeds and that leads to different problems. This increased speed of data transmission and small dense data pipe causes signal integrity reduction. In short, high-speed data transfer occurs in a small place causing a reduction of signal integrity.
What Is A Backplane PCB Motherboard?
We can use Backplane PCBs with a plugin a system host board which is SHB or a single-board computer that is SBC. This combination of backplane PCBs and SHB or SBC functions the same as a motherboard. This kind of backplane motherboard provides functions like memory, processing power, slots for plugin cards, and I/O, and many more.
Most backplane PCBs provide 8 slots, but nowadays some backplane motherboards are capable of providing more than 8 slots. Most manufacturers offer a limited number of individual connection types as technology develops and as required. The availability of particular slot types is also decreasing in backplane motherboards.
Backplane PCB Motherboard
A backplane motherboard has connections for expansion cards. Backplane motherboards are also used in corporate network routers. This is a large router with modules and expansion boards for increased communication.
What Are The Types Of A Backplane PCB?
Backplane PCBs have printed circuit boards that contain expansion slots or sockets for connecting with other printed circuit boards. There are basically two types of backplane PCBs; one is active backplane and the other is passive backplane. Both of them serve quite well in industries.
Types Of Backplane PCB
● Active Backplane PCB
An active backplane PCB contains motherboard circuitry and bus control. It contains slots and required circuitry to maintain the communications in between the slots of the board. Active backplane does not contain processor complex components like CPU which is the central processing unit, cache, or chipset.
● Passive Backplane PCB
However, a passive backplane PCB includes circuitry for bus connections. In some cases, it also contains drivers and buses. Mainly it has the bus connectors and a little or no additional circuitry.
Expansion boards connected to the passive backplane handle all the communication between the boards. There can be one or more than one expansion board in a passive backplane PCB. Industrial passive backplanes have bridges that associate two buses which can be the same type or different types.
What Is The Manufacturing Process Of A Backplane PCB?
Backplane PCB goes through a different manufacturing process. One needs to follow all the steps while manufacturing a backplane PCB. The procedure of manufacturing a backplane PCB is very delicate.
Backplane PCB is heavier and thicker than usual printed circuit boards. And so its capacity of heat endurance is higher too. Backplane PCB has a slow cooling speed, for this reason, the manufacturer needs to lengthen the length of the reflow weld furnace.
The copper layer of the backplane PCB needs to be moderately thick to give the required current when a big power application is plugged into it. As there is increased weight in the backplane PCB, the conveyor belts and other conveyor methods should be able to transmit safely.
Manufacturing Process Of A Backplane PCB
The number of holes in a backplane PCB is much more than conventional PCBs as it is thicker. These holes tend to cause an outflow of the processing fluids. The holes need to be cleaned using high-pressure air blowing and flushing.
The manufacturer needs to carefully align the layers of a backplane PCB since there are generally many layers required for applications. Interlayer-to-bit necessities tolerance convergence, large backplane size makes this convergence much more demanding.
In order to increase the effectiveness and repeatable control of the backplane PCB impedance, the manufacturer must focus on thickness, etching line widths, tolerance, etc. Back drilling is also a very crucial part of manufacturing a backplane PCB. Some other manufacturing processes need to be followed in a backplane PCB.
What Are The Manufacturing Difficulties Of A Backplane PCB?
As the backplane PCB increases signal transfer quality, ease of assembly and production, data quality, the challenges to manufacture it have also increased. For the higher functionality of these backplane PCB boards, it is actually tough to laminate all the components on a small board. As so Manufacturers face various difficulties to fabricate a backplane PCB.
Manufacturing Difficulties Of A Backplane PCB
Some common features where the manufacturers face difficulties are as follows.
- PCB pressing
- PCB thickness
- Matching impedance
- High-density etching
- Back drilling vias
- Alignment of the connectors

- copper anodic filament or CAF
- impractical stackup
- High forced compression
Well, there are some more difficulties to manufacture a backplane PCB. However, with advanced technologies, the difficulties can be solved.
What Is The Thickness Of A Backplane PCB?
One of the main features of a backplane PCB is the larger size of the board. With its large size, it comes with a lot more functions too. For working with this variety of functions, backplane PCB requires dealing with the factor thickness specifically.
Thickness Of A Backplane PCB
A backplane PCB needs to be thicker than a normal PCB as it has to deal with more mechanical stress. It is also much thicker from its structure itself in general. A typical backplane PCB is as thick as 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm which can be increased.
backplane PCBs yet can have a thickness of 4.0 – 6.0 mm. Not necessarily it can not be thicker than 4.0 – 6.0 mm., sometimes it is more than this. The thickness can go up to 10 mm in fabricating a backplane PCB.
What Are The Connectors In A Backplane PCB?
Connectors are a very important feature of a backplane PCB. These connectors are a kind of electric part. Several printed circuit boards connect with each other and work together within a computer system using these connectors.
Connectors in the backplane PCB provide a stable electric connection among the components of the board and the PCBs. These connectors have coplanar, high-performing right angle, mezzanine interconnects. They enable the backplane PCBs for better electric performance as well as high signal integrity.
There are mainly three types of connectors used for backplane PCBs.
● Active Backplane PCB Connector
These connectors are applied in boards with motherboard circuitry and bus controls. Boards with complex processor components can not use active connectors.
● Passive Backplane PCB Connector
This type of connector is standard for printed circuit boards with drivers and buses. They assist to associate with the operating system. The connectors also help in transferring data.
● Butterfly Backplane PCB Connector
These connectors lessen data latency and production cost for a backplane PCB. Switchless backplane PCBs use butterfly connectors.
To name some backplane PCB connectors, there are IEC 60603-2 two-piece connectors,
Hard Metric Connectors, rack and panel connectors, DIN 41612 Connectors, PC / 104 Connectors, High Speed / Modular Connectors, etc.
How Are The Connectors Used In A Backplane PCB?
Backplane PCBs use different kinds of connectors to transfer data with high speed and more clarity. Connectors also improve data rates and lessen the rise of signals. They help to mate the printed circuit boards.
Connectors In A Backplane PCB
These connectors can transfer 6.25 – 56 G/ps at accurately developed and improved pattern performance backplane PCBs. Mainly printed circuit boards for computerized devices use backplane connectors. In the manufacturing industries, high-reliability applications need to use backplane connectors.
Minicomputers tend to use Wire-wrapped connectors. Heavy components like peripheral devices and video cards apply backplane connectors. It works as a safety part to protect the backplane PCBs from damages and connection problems.
How To Design A High-speed Backplane PCB?
High-speed backplane PCBs need more delicate care while designing. Crossword interference needs to be taken care of because it has a big impact on signal integration and timing. Some facts to keep in mind while designing a high-speed backplane PCB are as follows.
- To increase the track area, the manufacturer needs to use blind or buried vias in backplane PCBs. It is tough to get equal length and full parallelism in implementation.
- The manufacturer has to control the matching and continuity of the traces’ characteristic impedance.
- To reduce the effect on signal integration and timing, the manufacturer should reserve a common mode termination as well as different termination.
- Manufacturers can use simulation to learn the effect of trace spacing on signal integrity and timing. It can also be used to find the lowest tolerated space. Maintaining trace spacing is important in designing high-speed backplane PCB.
High-speed Backplane PCB
High-speed backplanes can have panel size up to 54 inches, over 70 layers, Dual diameter holes, Blind and back drilled through holes, and heavy copper layers.
What Is Pinout In Backplane PCB?
Pinout in backplane PCBs eases routing on each layer. Pinout in connectors of backplane PCBs should attain the following objectives.
- Pinouts should prevent signals from crossing each other on a layer. If the pinouts work properly, you can diminish a few signal layers.
- As pinout on every connector reaches the routing, it should expand throughout the entire backplane PCB.
What Is The Layout Of A Backplane PCB?
Backplane PCBs connect multiple PCBs in a larger computer system and interconnect them. Backplane PCBs are designed with a lot of nets and connectors in a small space with a variety of functions. This designing process can seem difficult at first.
