The primary advantage of ceramic multilayer PCBs<\/a> lies in their thermal properties. The most significant of these is thermal conductivity, which outperforms traditional materials by a tremendous margin. In the table below, the most used board material, FR4, is compared with the ceramic multilayer board<\/a> in a number of important categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As shown above, ceramic multilayer PCBs<\/a> have advantages and disadvantages as compared to FR4. However, the advantages point to a continued increase in the use of ceramic boards<\/a> for high-speed and high-power applications that are criteria for more functionality in smaller packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
