Ibrahim, I am unsure of the minimum thickness of the dielectric needed to meet the 1500V hipot - sorry. If this is in regards to your Product Safety testing (e.g. UL) then you are relying on a minimum thickness of the dielectric between layers to meet isolation requirements. You and/or your contract manufacturer may need to provide documentation during quarterly Follow-Up Services inspections with each lot of fabricated boards guaranteeing that minimum spacing. Check with you safety lab.
