Rogers RO4003C materials and high Frequency PCB 2-layer 8mil substrate with the electrical performance of PTFE/woven glass

Elevating the Future of Circuit Design: Introducing the Remarkable Rogers RO4003C

In the high-stakes world of advanced electronics, where performance and cost-effectiveness are paramount, a true game-changer has arrived – the innovative Rogers RO4003C laminates. This remarkable solution is poised to redefine the standards for printed circuit board materials, ushering in a new era of unprecedented possibilities.

A Masterpiece of Material Science
At the heart of the RO4003C series lies a proprietary blend of woven glass reinforced hydrocarbon/ceramics, meticulously engineered to deliver the unparalleled electrical characteristics of PTFE/woven glass with the enhanced manufacturability of traditional epoxy/glass materials. With a dielectric constant (Dk) of 3.38 ± 0.05 at 10 GHz and a dissipation factor (Df) as low as 0.0021 at 2.5 GHz, these laminates offer exceptional signal integrity and low-loss performance that will captivate even the most discerning design teams.

Adaptable for Any Challenge
But the RO4003C's superiority extends far beyond its impressive electrical properties. These laminates are also designed with uncompromising versatility in mind, seamlessly integrating into a diverse array of circuit board configurations – from single-layer to complex multilayer constructions. Boasting a thermal coefficient of expansion (CTE) that perfectly matches that of copper, the RO4003C materials ensure exceptional dimensional stability and reliable plated through-hole quality, even in the face of severe thermal shock.

Accessible Performance for All
Unlike traditional PTFE-based microwave materials, the RO4003C laminates do not require any specialized handling or processing, allowing design engineers to leverage the same fabrication methods as standard epoxy/glass. This, in turn, unlocks the potential for exceptional performance at a fraction of the cost of conventional microwave laminates, making the RO4003C an ideal solution for a wide range of performance-sensitive, high-volume applications.

Powering the Future of Innovation
Whether you're tackling the next generation of cellular base station antennas, advancing the state-of-the-art in automotive radar systems, or pushing the boundaries of satellite communication technology, the Rogers RO4003C laminates are poised to be the cornerstone of your design success.
