Reasons for the Complexity of Double-sided PCB Manufacturing and How to Choose a Cost-effective Double-sided Printed Circuit Board
Double-sided PCB (Printed Circuit Board) refer to circuit boards where both sides feature wiring and component mounting. Compared to single-sided PCBs, double-sided PCBs are designed to accommodate more components and wiring within a limited space, thereby enhancing the reliability and performance of the circuit board.
The advantages of double-sided PCBs include not only increased integration, density, reliability, and performance of the circuit board, but also the ability to achieve more complex circuit designs, catering to various application needs. However, the drawbacks of double-sided PCBs lie in the higher difficulty in design and manufacturing, which demands more cost and time. Additionally, the manufacturing technology and equipment for certain specialized processes of double-sided PCBs are relatively scarce, limiting their range of applications.
Double-sided PCBs are widely used in various electronic products, computers, aerospace, communication devices, medical equipment, instruments, and other fields. In many high-end products, double-sided PCBs are almost indispensable as core components, enabling more complex circuit designs and more precise component installations, resulting in products with higher performance, stability, and reliability. It can be said that double-sided PCBs have become a crucial support and driving force for the development of modern electronic technology.
Benefits of Double Sided PCBs:
More flexibility for designers
Increased circuit density
Relatively lower costs
Intermediate level of circuit complexity
Reduced board size (which can reduce costs)
horizontalApplications of Double Sided PCBs
There are near limitless applications for old and new designs. Fine line surface mount, ultra high copper build, high and low temperature, Solder coated, Silver, and Gold finishes are just a few examples of double sided printed circuit board applications.

Rocket can produce double-sided PCBs, which allow for higher component density and make the process of layering tracks easier. Unlike multilayer PCBs, double-sided PCBs do not require lamination, but they do require plating to enable the functionality of through-holes. If you are looking for custom PCB boards, Rocket can provide you with cost-effective double-sided printed circuit boards.
