UHDI Fundamentals: An Overview of UHDI Layer Types
01/02/2026 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsUHDI layer types include core, sequential lamination build-up; microvia; embedded and passive antennas and inductors; and embedded functional, protective, and hybrid rigid-flex layers. Together, they enable ultra-fine features, dense interconnects, high-frequency performance, and miniaturized system designs. UHDI typically requires multiple SBU cycles, where thin dielectric and copper layers are drilled for microvias, plated, imaged, and laminated sequentially to build up to the final design from the inside out.
