The Healthcare & Medical PCB applications we serve

KINGFORD fabricates and assembles medical PCBs for a wide range of medical devices, such as:

• Medical imaging devices

• Medical monitoring systems

• Robotic surgery

• Radiation therapy or radiotherapy

The testing standards we follow for Medical PCBs

We perform constant testing at each step of the manufacturing process to ensure reliability of the medtech circuit boards.

• Automated optical inspection (AOI): AOI captures images of the PCB with either a single 2D camera or two 3D cameras. The captured image is compared with the schematic. If the board does not match the schematic, the board is sent to manual inspection.

• Solderability test: Ensures that the solder joints are reliable.

• Ionic contamination testing: Ionic contamination testing is performed to detect ionic residues resulting from the fabrication and soldering steps.

• Peel test: Determines the measure of strength required to peel the laminate from the circuit board.

• Micro-sectioning analysis: The inspection is carried out to determine the quality of the circuit board and also to spot internal failures.

• Flying probe test: Test probes move from test points to other test points and check for opens, shorts, other issues.

• Time-domain reflectometer (TDR): TDR impedance measurements are essential for ensuring signal integrity. It also checks for electrical discontinuities in connectors, or any other electrical path.

How we meet your high-reliability requirements with full traceability

Under IPC-6012 class 2 and class 3, we build standard, advanced, and micro boards with high accuracy. Our advanced boards come with UL 94 V-0 flammability standards. We provide the following documentation and certificates:

• Certificate of conformance

• Material specifications

• First article inspection report

• Reflow profile copy (included with the first article)

• Photo requirements

• IPC J-STD-001E

• Record of all the calibrated tools used during manufacturing

• AOI report or visual inspection report

• Flying probe or in-circuit testing report

• Ionic cleanliness test report

We follow the below standards that help us build high-quality, reliable Medical PCBs for the Healthcare & Med-Tech industry.

• IPC 6011: Defines performance specification for class 1, class 2 and class 3 PCBs

• IEC 60601-1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance of medical electrical equipment

• IEC 60601-1-2: Defines electromagnetic requirements (EMI and EMS) of medical PCBs

• ISO 13485: Provides quality management system requirements for medical equipment

We offer DFM/DFA checks on every board

We specialize in DFM and DFA analysis that prevent issues and offer internal quality review systems that guarantee zero-defect boards. We also provide engineering support to verify if your design is set to perform as expected and IPC class 3 compliant, should you go for this standard.

Extensive electrical testing for Medical PCBs

We do not bargain on quality and follow the stringent fabrication criteria that medical boards require – this means constant testing at each step of the manufacturing process, such as cross-section, AOI, BGA X-ray, flying probe, and other electrical tests.

Fab and assembly under one roof

The miscommunications between separate fabrication and assembly shops will cause delays in deliveries and errors in your board. A PCB manufacturer that does not handle assembly won’t run DFA checks to ensure your board can properly be assembled. One single vendor is accountable.
