Heavy copper PCBs

What is a heavy copper PCB?
It is a PCB made with two or more conductive copper layers. The conductive foil appears to be thicker than on standard PCBs. The different inner layers are processed in pairs (on a core) and then bonded together using prepreg as the insulating layer. The layers are then placed in such a way that both sides of the PCB can be used to mount components with additional tracking/electrical connections on the inside of the board. Vias are used as a source of the electrical connections between the different layers of the PCB.
More and more products are using heavy copper PCBs, for example EV-chargers, high current systems and power storage systems.
