Why you should consider .8mm PCBs over 1.6mm PCBs?
Hello, I'm working on an article about why you should consider .8mm PCBs over 1.6mm PCBs (mostly in the context of 2-layer boards). Anything I should mention?
I'm not advocating that in all cases over 1.6mm thickness, but seems like something that beginners especially wouldn't even consider I think the most obvious factors are weight, volume, and cost, but I know captive issues come into play as well. Any insight/references on capacitance that I should look at?
Also I saw some mention of how it affects solder joint fatigue, would welcome your thoughts on that too!
