Higher efficiency: Incandescent lamps release more heat. LED lamps can reduce it by up to 20%. This means that while using more powerful LED lamps, unnecessary heating can be reduced.

Smaller size: Due to their small size, LED lamps can have various sizes and can be used in different places. Manufacturers can add LEDs to anything, whether it is electronic equipment or cars, and even traffic lights and signs on the road.

Environmental protection: Compared with other bulbs, LED lamps do not contain mercury. Therefore, LEDs have less impact on the environment and are easier to handle.

LED is the abbreviation of light-emitting diode, which is a semiconductor diode. LEDs are soldered to a printed circuit board and equipped with a chip that generates light through electrical connections. A heat sink and a ceramic base are used to connect the chip. Undoubtedly, LED PCB is the core of LED lighting. An LED PCB tends to generate a lot of heat, but it is difficult to cool it by traditional methods. Metal core PCB is widely used in LED applications due to its strong heat dissipation ability, especially aluminum is often used in the production of PCB for LED lamps. Usually, aluminum PCB contains a thin layer of thermal conductive medium material, which can transfer and dissipate heat much more efficiently than traditional rigid PCB.

Why led light circuit board use mcpcb

Aluminum substrate is a metal-based copper-clad board with good heat dissipation function. Generally, a single-sided board consists of three layers, namely circuit layer (copper foil), insulation layer and metal base layer. There are also designs for high-end use as double-sided boards, with the structure of circuit layer, insulation layer, aluminum base, insulation layer and circuit layer. Very few applications are multi-layer boards, which can be made of ordinary multi-layer boards with insulation layer and aluminum base.
LED aluminum substrate is PCB, which also means printed circuit board, but the material of the circuit board is aluminum alloy. In the past, our general circuit board material was glass fiber, but because LED generates more heat, the circuit board used for LED lamps is generally aluminum substrate, which can conduct heat quickly. The circuit boards used for other equipment or electrical appliances are still glass fiber boards!

How are LED patches installed on PCB boards?

Use double-sided PCB board, patch LED on the front, and drive power circuit on the back. LED can be designed into a circle shape, through metallized holes to the back, there are plenty of places to handle these leads
On the corresponding pads of PCB board, brush tin, use patch machine to apply it, and then reflow soldering, it is on, but in actual operation, you need to pay attention to many problems, anti-static, equipment quality, etc.
