I have a customer who wants me to do an extreme shrink of our semi-custom diode laser controller board, which leads to a lot of thermal issues. The obvious approach is an aluminum-core circuit board, but I've never used one.
A few questions for the cognoscenti:
- Can I get a 6- or 8-layer aluminum-core PCB?
- How much more do they cost?
- Any other constraints?
Thanks
