Standard PCB
Metal Core PCB
Aluminium and copper base boards that move heat away from high-power LED and power devices.
Overview
A metal core board replaces the standard FR-4 dielectric with a thermally conductive layer bonded to an aluminium or copper base, which spreads heat away from the component. Aisler produces single-layer, double-layer and multilayer metal core boards, with the dielectric thermal conductivity selected to match your junction temperature target.
Key construction features
- Aluminium base 1.0 - 3.0 mm, copper base on request
- Dielectric thermal conductivity from 1.0 to 3.0 W/m·K
- Single-sided, double-sided and multilayer constructions
- Suitable for high-power LED arrays and power modules
