Current Carrying Capabilities
The circuit layer is the component-mounting layer in Thermal Clad.
Current carrying capability is a key consideration because this layer
typically serves as a printed circuit, interconnecting the components of
the assembly. The advantage of Thermal Clad is that the circuit trace
interconnecting components can carry higher currents because of its
ability to dissipate heat due to I
Temperature rise comparison graph depicts the significant difference between Bergquist
Dielectric HT and FR-4. Additional comparison charts regarding all Bergquist Dielectrics are
available. Note: No base metal used in calculation.
