MCPCB CAPABILITIES
FR4 CAPABILITIES
With 25 years of experience leading and innovating within the thermal management industry, COFAN will find the right solution whether you need a single layer or multi-layered PCB designs. COFAN supports you from the prototype stage to the production stage while keeping costs low due to our facilities in Taiwan and China.
COFAN also offers MCPCBs (metal-core printed circuit boards), which are PCBs with a heat sink incorporated into the PCB. It reduces thermal resistance by making use of dielectric polymer pre-preg, transferring heat 8-12 times faster than a conventional FR4 PCB.
COFAN is able to customize your PCB/MCPCB designs, regardless of the number of layers. Vias can also be customized, whether it’s thermal vias, filled vias, blind vias, or a combination of the three. Our dielectric polymer pre-preg materials offer some of the best thermal management properties for LED lighting, DC-DC power, and military applications.
All of our materials are UL approved to ensure safety and accountability. For extreme LED lighting applications, we would recommend our unique and patented Super Pillar technology, which allows for thermal conductivity up to 300W/mK. Finally, we also offer bendable or non-rigid materials for the applications that require unique shapes and angles for LED lighting.
At COFAN, we use our in-house facilities to ensure quick manufacturing lead times and a high-quality product—we pride ourselves on delivering products on time and free of defects.
