Heavy Copper PCB

What is Heavy Copper PCB? Heavy Copper PCB is a printed circuit board (PCB) with a layer of copper foil bonded to its glass epoxy substrate. When the thickness of the copper foil is greater than or equal to 2 ounces (i.e. ≥2oz), it is called Heavy Copper PCB.

Copper performs the function of conducting electricity on the circuit board. Heavy Copper PCB has the characteristics of carrying large current, reducing thermal strain, and having good heat dissipation.

The application scenarios of Heavy Copper PCB are very wide. Here are some common application scenarios:

High-power electronic equipment: Heavy Copper PCB can withstand the current and heat of high-power electronic equipment, so it is widely used in power modules, motor controllers, UPS power supplies, solar inverters, electronic ignition systems, electric vehicle charging piles and other equipment.
