The difference between single sided and double-sided die-cut circuit boards is that instead of using a single-sided copper core, the manufacture will start a core with copper on both sides. During production, they also drill holes called vias that they can plate or fill with a conductive, or non conductive material.
The main difference between single-sided and double-sided die-cut circuit boards is the number of wiring layers, wiring difficulty, applicable scenarios, costs, process processes, and materials.
1.Number of wiring layers and difficulty: The single-sided mold cutting circuit board has only one wiring layer. It cannot be crossed during the wiring. It can only be detoured. Therefore, the wiring is more difficult and suitable for simple circuit design. The double-sided die-cut circuit boards can be wiring on both sides, and the wiring can be moved on both sides. The wiring difficulty is reduced, and it is widely used. It is suitable for complex circuit design.
2.Applicable scenario: Single-sided die-cut circuit board is suitable for scenes with low requirements for circuit complexity and limited budget. The double-sided die-cut circuit boards is suitable for the scene that requires higher circuit density and more complex circuit design.
3.Cost: The cost of single-sided die-cut circuit board is relatively low, because its production process is simple and the cost of material is low. The cost of double-sided die-cut circuit board is relatively high, because its production process is complicated, and more materials and labor costs are required.
4.Process and materials United: The production process of single-sided die-cut circuit board is relatively simple, usually with only one copper foil. The double-sided die-cut circuit boards requires more process, including the copper process, so that both sides can be welded. There are copper foil wiring on both sides, and the copper foil on both sides is connected through the perfunction.
In summary, the main difference between single-sided and double-sided die-cut circuit boards is the number of wiring layers, difficulty, applicable scenarios, costs, and manufacturing processes and materials. What type of circuit board to choose depends on the specific application needs.
