class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766477409870\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">P: Qual \u00e9 o objetivo do revestimento de cobre no fabrico de PCB?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">R: O revestimento de cobre cria liga\u00e7\u00f5es el\u00e9ctricas entre as camadas de PCB e assegura uma espessura de cobre suficiente para garantir a fiabilidade.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766477432510\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Q: Qual \u00e9 a diferen\u00e7a entre revestimento de cobre eletrol\u00edtico e eletrol\u00edtico?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">R: A galvaniza\u00e7\u00e3o sem eletr\u00f3lise cria uma camada condutora inicial, enquanto a galvaniza\u00e7\u00e3o electrol\u00edtica aumenta a espessura do cobre utilizando corrente el\u00e9ctrica.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766477464053\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">P: Qual deve ser a espessura do revestimento de cobre via?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">R: A espessura do cobre da via depende dos requisitos de conce\u00e7\u00e3o e fiabilidade, mas deve cumprir as normas IPC para um desempenho a longo prazo.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766477547505\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">P: O que \u00e9 que causa os vazios no revestimento de cobre de PCB?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">R: Os vazios s\u00e3o normalmente causados por uma limpeza deficiente do orif\u00edcio ou por uma cobertura incompleta de cobre electroless.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766477570852\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">P: Como \u00e9 que o revestimento de cobre afecta a fiabilidade dos
