Advantages of Using Metal Core Printed Circuit Boards
A metal core PCB is a kind of printed circuit board with a metal core, and it is used for high frequency and high current applications. The advantages of using metal core printed circuit boards are as follows: Smaller size Metal core PCBs are much smaller than plastic or FR-4 boards, and this makes them ideal for use in mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones. High heat tolerance Metal core circuit boards can withstand high temperatures and are used in applications where high temperatures are expected. This makes them ideal for use in environments such as aircraft, spacecraft and automobiles. Durable Metal core boards are more durable than plastic and FR-4 boards because they contain more copper in their construction. They also do not require as much heat when soldering components onto them, which can protect against oxidation and corrosion. Cost-effective Because there are far fewer layers on a metal core board, it is less expensive to manufacture one tha...
