LED PCB

The emergence of LED PCBs has been driven by the rapid advancement of the printed circuit PCB industry.

These PCBs are designed specifically for creating lighting electronic products by soldering LEDs onto them.

LEDs are known to generate more heat compared to other electronic components, making it crucial for the PCBs to have excellent heat dissipation capabilities.

To meet these special requirements, metal core PCBs are commonly employed for LED PCBs, particularly those with an aluminum core.

This is because aluminum PCBs typically incorporate a thin layer of thermally conductive dielectric material, enabling efficient transfer and dissipation of heat, surpassing the capabilities of traditional rigid PCBs.

Currently, the most widely used packaging form in LED applications is SMD (Surface Mount Device) packaging.

However, the light emitted from a single LED component is often insufficient, necessitating the use of multiple LED components within a single light fixture to achieve the desired level of brightness.

PCBs serve as the optimal means to electrically connect these LED components, and a PCB with soldered LED components is commonly referred to as an "LED PCB."

WHAT IS AN ALUMINUM PCB?

A PCB generally consists of three layers. A conductive copper layer at the top, a dielectric layer in between, and a layer of a substrate at the bottom. Standard PCBs have a substrate layer made of fiberglass, ceramic, polymers, or any other non-metal core. An ample amount of PCBs uses FR-4 as the substrate.

Aluminum PCBs use an Aluminum substrate. Instead of standard FR-4 as the substrate material.

Circuit Copper Layer

This layer transmits signals over the entire PCB board.

The movement of charged particles generates heat.

This heat is transferred to the Aluminum substrate. Which dissipates it efficiently.

Insulating Layer

This layer is also known as the dielectric layer.

It is made of materials that are poor conductors of electricity.

It absorbs the heat generated in the above layer. And transfer it to the Aluminum substrate below it.

Substrate

The substrate acts as a foundation for the PCB.

It firmly holds the components above it. By changing the characteristics of the substrate, the performance of PCB varies.

For example, a rigid substrate provides strength and durability to the PCB board.

While a flexible substrate opens up more design options.

The aluminum substrate is used in power electronics-based applications where high thermal dissipation is required.

Due to its good thermal conductivity, it keeps heat away from vital electronic components. Thus ensuring minimal circuit damage.
