RO4003C High Frequency PCB - Cost-Effective RF Circuit Solutions


Calendar Icon July 14, 2025


1.RO4003C High-Frequency PCB: Superior RF Performance

Rogers RO4003C laminates combine woven glass-reinforced hydrocarbon/ceramic for PTFE-like electrical performance with epoxy/glass manufacturability. These cost-effective PCBs ensure stable Dk (3.38±0.05), ultra-low loss (Df 0.0027 @10GHz), and reliable plated through-holes (Z-CTE 46 ppm/°C). Compatible with FR-4 processing, they reduce fabrication costs without sacrificing high-frequency performance.
