Introducing TSM-DS3 PCB: A High-Performance Solution for Demanding Applications
TSM-DS3, a cutting-edge ceramic-filled reinforced material with a mere 5% fiberglass content, has emerged as a game-changer in the realm of advanced circuit board manufacturing. This material, which competes head-to-head with traditional epoxies, excels in fabricating large format complex multilayers with unparalleled precision and reliability.
Q: What sets TSM-DS3 apart from traditional epoxy materials in circuit board manufacturing?
A: TSM-DS3 boasts a remarkably low dissipation factor of 0.0011 at 10 GHz, setting a new standard in the industry. Its high thermal conductivity of 0.65 W/m*K effectively dissipates heat away from critical components within a printed wiring board (PWB) design. Additionally, TSM-DS3 showcases minimal coefficients of thermal expansion, ensuring optimal performance in environments with demanding thermal cycling requirements.
