Rogers RT/duroid 5880LZ 2-Layer 10mil Lightweight RF PCB with Immersion Gold
1.Introduction
Rogers RT/duroid® 5880LZ filled PTFE composites are designed for exacting stripline and microstrip circuit applications.
The unique filler results in a low density, lightweight material for high performance weight sensitive applications.
The very low dielectric constant of RT/duroid 5880LZ laminatesis uniform from panel to panel and is constant over a wide frequency range. Its low dissipation factor extends the usefulness of RT/duroid 5880LZ laminates to Ku-band and above.
2.Key Features
Dielectric Constant (DK): 2.0 ± 0.04 at 10 GHz and 23°C?
Dissipation Factor: Ranges from 0.0021 to 0.0027 at 10 GHz and 23°C
Low Z-Axis Coefficient of Thermal Expansion: 40 ppm/°C
Outgassing Properties: TML 0.01%, CVCM 0.01%, WVR 0.01%
Density: Lightweight at 1.4 gm/cm³
