Aluminum Board are a unique metal-based copper clad laminate excellent thermal conductivity, high mechanical strength and dimension stability.

Aluminum Board, also named IMS, is used on all these activities mainly because of the greatly increasing LED lighting application. Aluminum Board is used as a heat sink. Thanks to different base material available from several suppliers (see the following table), every application can find the proper base material for any industrial application.

- Application

High power and thermal heat dissipation are the principal applications for the Aluminum Board. Aluminium is used for bendable MCPCBs and is the most cost-effective base material for flat MCPCBs.

- Design Rules

Aluminum Board is commonly divided into three layers:

 Circuit layer (copper thickness).

 Dielectric layer (also known as Insulated layer, it’s the thermal insulation material).

 Base layer (the aluminum substrate, could also be copper or stainless steel).
