Advantages Of Heavy Copper PCB

Plating technology in heavy copper allowed a combination of plating & etching which causes in straight sidewalls & negligible undercut.

The heavy copper plating generates high-current circuits & control circuits that observes the highly dense & simple beard structure.

This enables the board fabricator to increase the amount of copper thickness in plated holes and via sidewalls.

The mix of heavy copper results on a single board called PowerLink.

The heavy copper in the PCB also helps in connecting to the standard circuits.

This reduces layer count, low impedance power distribution, smaller footprints & potential cost savings.

For construction purposes, it increases the endurance to thermal strains.

It has increased current carrying capacity.

Heavy copper plating carries higher current through the board and helps to transfer heat to external heatsink.
