Hello,
I'm redesigning a motor control system. Currently it is a discrete design with din relays. I would like to go to a integrated PCB design with onboard relays; mainly to save on manufacturing costs. The motor that I am controlling draws a pulse of around 25 amps @ 24 VDC for approx 100ms then goes to a steady state of 2.5 amps at the same voltage. With that turn on pulse, what would be the appropriate sizing for the PCB trace on the board. AND why, I have looked for information that would relate to this and have came up dry. I would most likely be using 2.5 oz trace weight. Thanks for the help.
