High-Performance 4-Layer FR408HR PCBs with ENIG Finish for Advanced Applications

(Custom PCBs are tailored products; the images and specifications provided are for reference only.)


Introduction to FR408HR:

FR408HR laminates and prepregs are produced using Isola's patented high-performance multifunctional resin system, reinforced with electrical grade E-glass fabric. This innovative system provides a 30% improvement in Z-axis expansion and delivers 25% more electrical bandwidth (lower loss) compared to competing products. These features, coupled with enhanced moisture resistance during reflow, create a product that excels in both thermal and electrical performance.


The FR408HR system is also designed to be laser fluorescing and UV blocking, ensuring maximum compatibility with Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems, optical positioning systems, and photo-imagable solder mask imaging.
