Single Side PCB

Single side PCB is most primitive type of PCB, yet most popular and widely used PCB in electronics world. It has got only one layer of Copper Lamination of various thickness like 18 micron, 35 micron, 70 micron. There are various types of dielectric to chose, like FR1, FR2, FR4,CEM1, XPC etc.

Benefits of Single Side PCB

• Ideal for simple low-density designs
• Lower cost, especially for high volume orders
• Lower probability of manufacturing issues
• Popular, common, and easily understood by most PCB manufacturers
