TIDA-050063: What is the preferred PCB Copper thickness (copper OZ) requirements of the physical PCB? 

Could you kindly provide me with these technical details or direct me to where I can find this information?

Thank you for your assistance.

    Hello Jayson,

    Thanks for joining E2E and reaching out to our team! The TIDA 050063 is a 2 layer PCB using 1 oz copper. The main concern is using adequate thickness in the paths where the charging current is moving through. Generally, we tried to make the copper traces as wide as reasonably possible. Can check online calculators such as this one to get a better idea of the expected temperature rise based on all the relevant parameters. But generally for external layers, using 10mm or greater width traces is safe for our current levels.

    Best regards,
