Applications

Products we help
bring to market

Modern security systems are intelligent, networked and operate continuously. Every camera, sensor and controller depends on a precisely engineered PCB.

01

4K AI Security Cameras

Any-layer HDI boards with 0.1 mm laser vias and via-in-pad thermal management pack AI SoC, ISP and PoE circuitry into 50×50 mm housings.

02

NVR & VMS Servers

20-layer PCIe 4.0 boards with TDR-verified impedance support dual GPU, DDR5 and 10 GbE for multi-channel video management servers.

03

Biometric Access Terminals

10-layer HDI boards integrating fingerprint and 3D face-recognition sensors with BLE, NFC and OSDP interfaces in compact terminal housings.

04

Smart Lock Electronics

Ultra-thin rigid-flex boards at 0.3 mm profile with dynamic flex hinge routing for flush-mounted smart lock hardware.

05

PTZ Camera Drive Boards

Heavy copper multilayer boards sized for PTZ pan-tilt-zoom motor drive current alongside high-speed video processing circuitry.

06

Wearable Access Badges

Flexible PCBs at ultra-thin profile for compact wearable security badges and RFID credential electronics worn on-body.

07

Sensor Node & Alarm Modules

Compact rigid-flex boards for motion, glass-break and perimeter sensor nodes networked into intrusion alarm systems.

08

Outdoor IP67 Camera Housings

Conformal-coat ready boards rated -40°C to +85°C for weatherproof outdoor camera and perimeter sensor deployments.

The Engineering Challenge

Why security PCBs must balance
performance, size and cost

Security products are deployed in millions of units worldwide — outdoors, indoors and in harsh environments — with an expectation of years of maintenance-free operation.

01

High-Density Video Processing in Compact Housings

A 4K AI camera must fit a full SoC, DDR5, flash, PoE, ISP and IR illumination control onto a board smaller than 50 mm × 50 mm. Any-layer HDI with 2.5/2.5 mil capability is the only practical solution at today's camera feature densities.

02

Continuous 24/7 Operation — Thermal & Reliability

Security cameras run continuously — often in direct sunlight, at temperatures up to +60°C — for 5–10 years without maintenance. Thermal management through copper fill, via-in-pad and stackup optimisation directly determines whether a camera survives its warranty period.

03

Global Regulatory Compliance at High Volume

Security products ship into CE (EU), FCC (USA), RCM (Australia) and dozens of other regulatory zones. PCB material choices and RF trace routing affect EMC emissions test results. Getting it right at the board level avoids costly re-spins before product launch.
