RO3003 PCB Material Characteristics

Low Dielectric Loss

The dielectric loss of UGPCB RO3003 is very low. Even if the working frequency reaches 10 GHz, the dielectric loss factor is only 0.0013. さらに, RO3003 also has excellent electrical and mechanical properties. 同時に, the laminate has high cost performance, mainly for commercial microwave and RF applications.

Composition and Durability

ROGERS RO3003 PCB is made of PTFE Composites Based on ceramic filling. The melting point is as high as 327 摂氏. It has strong acid-base resistance and high-temperature resistance, which ensures the normal operation of the circuit in harsh environments. したがって, it can be used as an ideal circuit material for special applications.

Thermal Expansion and Stability

加えて, 熱膨張係数 (CTE) of RO3003 in X and Y directions is 17 ppm / degree Celsius, which is equivalent to that of copper. The shrinkage of one inch material after etching and baking is less than 0.5 ミル. The thermal expansion coefficient in the Z direction is 24 ppm / degree Celsius, which can ensure the stability of electroplated through-holes even in severe thermal environments.

Stable Dielectric Constant

Because the step phenomenon of the dielectric constant of PTFE glass cloth material near room temperature is eliminated, the change of the dielectric constant of RO3003 with temperature is very stable. Regardless of the dielectric constant, Rogers RO3003 PCB material has stable mechanical properties, which ensures that designers will not encounter warpage or reliability problems when developing multilayer boards.

RO4835 PCB Material Overview

Rogers RO4835 is a kind of high-frequency circuit board material filled with hydrocarbon resin and ceramics, which belongs to civil products. It has the ability to be compatible with FR4 mixed pressure, FR-4 processing technology, and lead-free welding processes.

Dielectric Constant and Thermal Conductivity

で 10 GHz, the dielectric constant in the Z direction (thickness direction) of Rogers RO4835 is 3.48, and the tolerance is ±0.05. The thermal conductivity of the material is 0.69 w/M/°K, and it has very good dimensional stability in the X-Y plane.

Oxidation and Dielectric Properties

With the change of time and temperature, the oxidation will affect all thermosetting boards, and the dielectric constant and loss factor of PCB will increase slightly. The higher the working temperature of the product is, the faster the dielectric constant and loss factor of the PCB board will increase due to oxidation.

Comparison with RO4350B

The materials, 電気, and mechanical properties of Rogers RO4835 are almost the same as those of RO4350B. The biggest difference between Rogers RO4350B high-frequency circuit board material and RO4835 high-frequency circuit board material is that the antioxidant is added to RO4835. Compared with traditional thermosetting materials, the oxidation resistance is increased by 10 回, and it meets the requirements of IPC-4103 (high speed and high-frequency substrate specification). 加えて, the dimensional stability, 硬度, and water absorption of RO4835 are better than those of RO4350B. しかし, the temperature characteristic of the DK of RO4835 is relatively poor, which requires a high temperature range of the product, especially the thermal expansion coefficient of the Z-axis becomes worse, and the phase characteristic of high frequency is relatively poor. It is better to avoid using the product with strict requirements on phase.
