Double-sided PCB manufacturer in China

Why Choose Double-sided PCBs?

A Double-sided PCB( 2-Layer PCB) has conductive copper layers on both the top and bottom, with an insulating base material (usually FR-4) in the middle. It connects the circuits on both sides through Plated Through Holes (Vias), allowing signals to travel between layers.Double-sided PCBs offer the following advantages:

Low Cost: Double-sided PCBs use less material and have a simple manufacturing process. This makes them the most cost-effective choice.They are cost-effective for mass production.

Simple circuits: If your design has few components and signal lines, a single or double-sided layout is enough without extra internal layers.

Fast delivery: Double-sided PCBs have a simpler manufacturing process with fewer steps, resulting in shorter lead times. For 2-Layer Prototypes,HXD can support you 24–48 hours lead time.

Easy maintenance :Circuit traces are clearly visible on double-sided boards. This makes it much easier to debug, repair, or solder components by hand compared to complex boards.

If your design has limited space or involves high-speed digital signals, a Double-sided PCB is your best choice. However, if your design has very limited space or uses high-speed signals, you should consider a 4-layer or multilayer board.

Double-sided PCB Stackup Overview

HXD DOUBLE-SIDED LYAER RIGID PCB STACK-UP

Double-sided PCB is the most basic type of multilayer board.Their structure is simple but reliable:

Substrate: Provides mechanical support and insulation, typically FR-4.
Copper Layers: Etching creates circuit traces to transmit electrical signals.
Solder Mask: Protects copper from oxidation and short circuits; colors include green, blue, red, and black.
Silkscreen: Prints component identifiers, logos, and test points.

FAQ

Is the quality guaranteed for small orders?

Even for a small order of just 5 pieces, we perform 100% E-Test and AOI . This ensures that every board meets your Gerber file requirements.

What is HXD standard lead time?

Prototypes (2-layer): 24–48 hours.
Standard Production: 5–7 working days.
Mass Production: 10–15 working days depending on complexity.

When is it Time to Upgrade from Double-sided to 4+ Layer PCB Designs?

While Double-sided PCB designs are most common, you will most likely need to upgrade in the following circumstances:

High Component Density: When you run out of board real estate and have to add a lot of components to finish the routing with only two layers.
Complex Packaging: With high-performance microprocessors or BGA packages. The pin density of these devices often exceeds what a 2-layer board can route.
High-Speed Signal Needs: Multi-layer boards are preferred for high-frequency or tightly controlled impedance applications since they often provide dedicated power and ground layers.D
