Product Description:
UAV PCBs are core electronic components that enable the
functionality, reliability, and performance of Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles (UAVs, also known as drones). They serve as the "neural
network" and "power backbone" of UAVs, integrating and connecting
key electronic systems to ensure stable flight, data transmission,
and mission execution—even in harsh aerial environments (e.g.,
vibration, temperature fluctuations, electromagnetic interference).
Common Types of UAV PCBs:
Double-Sided PCBs: Used in entry-level consumer UAVs (e.g.,
hobbyist drones) for basic flight control and power management.
Cost-effective and easy to manufacture.
• Multilayer PCBs (4–12 Layers): Deployed in industrial or
professional UAVs (e.g., agricultural drones, surveying drones).
Support complex circuits (e.g., multi-sensor integration,
high-speed data processing) with dedicated power and ground layers.
• Flexible PCBs (FPCs): Ideal for foldable or compact UAV designs
(e.g., pocket-sized drones). Can bend without breaking, allowing
for innovative mechanical layouts.
• Rigid-Flex PCBs: Combine rigid and flexible sections. Used in
UAVs with moving parts (e.g., retractable landing gear) to connect
fixed components (e.g., FCS) to flexible ones (e.g., wing-mounted
sensors).

Applications:
- Consumer/Recreational UAVs: Low-cost double-sided or 4-layer PCBs,
focusing on miniaturization (e.g., DJI Mini series). Prioritizes
ease of manufacture and basic functionality (flight control, camera
connectivity).
- Industrial UAVs: 6–8 layer PCBs with enhanced durability (e.g.,
agricultural drones for crop spraying, inspection drones for power
lines). Require resistance to chemicals, dust, and long operating
hours.
- Military/Defense UAVs: High-performance 10–12 layer PCBs (e.g.,
surveillance drones, combat UAVs). Use rugged materials (e.g., PTFE
substrates), EMI shielding, and redundant circuits to withstand
extreme conditions (e.g., high G-forces, electronic warfare).
- Professional/Commercial UAVs: 8-layer PCBs with high-speed data
interfaces (e.g., LiDAR-equipped surveying drones, thermal-imaging
search-and-rescue drones). Support large data throughput and
precise sensor calibration.
Industry Trends• Higher Integration: Adoption of System-in-Package (SiP)
technology to integrate more components (e.g., MCU, RF module,
memory) onto a single PCB, reducing size and weight.
• AI-Enabled PCBs: Integration of AI accelerators (e.g., NVIDIA
Jetson modules) for on-board data processing (e.g., real-time
object detection in delivery drones), requiring PCBs with enhanced
thermal management.
• Sustainability: Use of eco-friendly materials (e.g., recyclable
substrates) and lead-free manufacturing processes to align with
global environmental regulations.
• 5G/6G Connectivity: PCBs optimized for high-frequency 5G/6G
signals to enable longer-range, low-latency communication between
UAVs and GCS (critical for beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS)
flights).
