A Metal Core PCB is a printed circuit board designed with a metal substrate or core to provide better thermal performance and mechanical stability than conventional FR-4-based PCBs. Unlike standard PCBs, which typically use FR-4 as the primary structural material, metal core boards use materials such as aluminum, copper, or…
