PCB Laminate Overview

The 'Laminate Overview' is intended to support the industry in specifying and realising cost-effective, high quality Printed Board Assemblies.

The 'Laminate Overview' gives an overview of the thermal and mechanical properties of different Printed Circuit Board laminates. The overview provides links to laminate datasheets. For each of the laminates an estimation of the number of lead-free soldering cycles to delamination and to failure of a 300µm diameter 20µm copper plated via in a 1.6mm thick PCB is given.

Members and partners can download the tool for free from the website.
