MCPCB (Metal Core Printed Circuit Boards)

A type of printed circuit board that has the dielectric and copper layer laminated to a copper or aluminum core.  These one-sided systems cannot carry complex circuitry, but use thermally enhanced materials to aid in the conduction of heat.  Many LED systems use MCPCB construction.
