Hello everyone,
Today, we will discuss the F4BTME high frequency circuit board—specifically, the F4BTME300 PCB.
This PCB measures 170 mm x 95 mm and is designed as a double-sided board featuring two layers. It accommodates surface mount components, while through-hole components are not part of this design. The layer stackup includes a top layer with 35 µm (1 oz) copper, starting with 0.5 oz plating, paired with a core material of F4BTME300 that has a thickness of 3.0 mm. The bottom layer also consists of 35 µm (1 oz) copper with plating. This PCB utilizes immersion silver for excellent solderability and protection. Notably, it does not have a solder mask applied, allowing direct access to the copper layers.

F4BTME High Frequency Laminates
The F4BTME series laminates are produced through a meticulous process that involves the scientific formulation of glass fiber cloth, nano-ceramic fillers, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin.
These substrates are built upon the F4BM dielectric layer and incorporate high dielectric constant nano-ceramics, leading to enhanced dielectric performance, superior heat resistance, reduced thermal expansion, increased insulation resistance, and improved thermal conductivity, all while maintaining low loss characteristics.
Additionally, F4BTME laminates are specifically paired with reverse-treated RTF copper foil, providing exceptional performance in terms of phase intermodulation (PIM), precise line control, and minimized conductor loss.
The dielectric constant ranges from 2.98 to 3.5, with ED copper foil available in 0.5 oz, 1 oz, 1.5 oz, and 2 oz options. RTF copper is available in 0.5 oz and 1 oz, with thicknesses ranging from 0.254 mm to 12.0 mm.
