The main differences between four-layer PCB boards and two-layer PCB boards are reflected in the following three aspects:
1. Number of layers: The main difference is the number of layers. A two-layer PCB board has only two conductive layers, while a four-layer PCB board has four conductive layers.
2. Size: Since a four-layer PCB board has two more conductive layers than a two-layer PCB board, its board size is larger than that of a two-layer PCB board. At the same time, the production difficulty of four-layer PCB boards is higher than that of two-layer PCB boards.
3. Cost: A four-layer PCB board is more difficult to produce and uses materials than a two-layer PCB board, so its cost is also higher. If you only need a simple circuit, it is more appropriate to use a two-layer PCB board. However, if a more complex circuit structure is required, the cost will be more cost-effective if a four-layer PCB board is used.
In short, when choosing between a four-layer PCB board and a two-layer PCB board, you need to choose based on specific application requirements and cost considerations.
