Heavy copper PCB is the answer of greater thermal distribution and mechanical strength now-a-days among various industries. Heavy copper PCB is a circuit board that has a copper thickness of more than 3 oz per square feet. The extra copper thickness allows the board to conduct more current. Additionally, heavy copper PCB has strong mechanical power in the plated-through holes and connector sites. Heavy Copper PCBs find wide application in electronics and electrical circuitry where high power transmission is the need of the hour. In addition, heavy copper flex PCBs offer high heat sinking capacity as poor handling of heat signals impacts the performance of the life of the circuitry.
Fabrication of heavy copper PCB involves the use of plating or etching as it adds copper thickness to sidewalls and plated holes. Additionally, during the PCB fabrication process, heavy copper PCBs are electroplated. This helps thicken the walls of PTH on the PCB.
Some of the features that make thick copper PCBs different from other PCBs include:
Copper weight: This of course is the main distinguishing feature of a heavy copper PCB. It refers to the weight of copper used in a square foot and is measured in ounces.
Outer Layers: The external copper layers begin with copper foil. The copper weight of the external layers is preset for standard designs.
Inner layers: The copper mass of the inner layers and the dielectric thickness is predefined for standard projects. However, they can be adjusted to the bespoke needs of your project.
