Insulated Metal IMPCB Manufacturing

Engineering high-performance metal core and metal-clad circuit boards designed to dissipate extreme heat in high-power applications.

Insulated Metal Core PCB
SUPERIOR HEAT DISSIPATION

High-Efficiency Insulated Metal PCBs (IMPCB)

AS&R manufactures single-sided, double-sided, and multilayer boards with metal cladding or metal core for improved thermal management. IMPCBs are critical for drawing heat away from high-power semiconductor components to ensure long-term device reliability.

We utilize premier laminate and dielectric material suppliers including Aismalibar, Arlon, Bergquist, CSEM, Laird (Thermagon), and Ventec. In addition, AS&R features specialized proprietary materials to meet strict thermal performance targets.

Supported metal base options include aluminum, copper, and brass composites. Typical applications include LED lighting modules, power conversion systems, solid-state relays, automotive electronics, and motor drives.

Frequently Asked Questions

An Insulated Metal PCB (also known as a Metal Core PCB or MCPCB) features a base metal layer (such as aluminum or copper) bonded beneath a thermally conductive, electrically insulating dielectric layer and a copper circuit layer. This structure rapidly conducts heat away from surface components, preventing thermal overload.

Copper base plates offer significantly higher thermal conductivity than aluminum, making them ideal for ultra-high-power applications, high-density power conversion, and RF modules where maximum heat dissipation is required. Aluminum is typically selected for cost-sensitive LED and general power applications.
