What is the thickness of 1 oz copper?
1.37 mils
The most common unit of measure for the copper thickness on a printed circuit board is ounces (oz). But how thick is that? It’s the resulting thickness when 1 oz of copper is pressed flat and spread evenly over a one square foot area. This equals 1.37 mils (1.37 thousandths of an inch).
What is the thickness of 2 ounce copper?
2.8 mils
2 oz copper (70µm thick or 2.8 mils) — Standard internal layer copper thickness for internal layers on 3 oz finished copper selection. This is the standard starting copper thickness on the external layers for PCBs with the 3 oz finished copper weight selection.
What is 2 oz copper PCB?
A 2 oz copper PCB is a printed circuit board whose copper weight per square foot amounts to two ounces. To make this circuit board, copper of two-ounce weight is flattened to form an even surface with square dimensions of one foot. The resulting thickness of this board type is about 2.8 mils or 70 micrometers.
What is finished copper thickness?
According to the IPC-A-600J-Class 2 Standards an 18 µm Start Copper must have a minimum End Copper of 33.4 µm, here we state +/-35 µm as “Our Nominal End Copper Thickness” where the “+/-” means approximately and is based on our manufacturing experience but has a guaranteed minimum thickness of 33.4 µm.
