RO3206 High Frequency PCB DK 6.15 – Rogers RO3206 RF Circuits for 5G, Automotive, and Wireless Applications

(Printed Circuit Boards are custom-made products, the picture and parameters shown are just for reference)

Introduction

The Rogers RO3206 high-frequency PCB materials are engineered laminates containing ceramic fillers reinforced with woven fiberglass. These materials are designed to deliver outstanding electrical performance and mechanical stability while remaining competitively priced. An extension of the RO3000 series, the RO3206 offers enhanced mechanical stability.

With a dielectric constant of 6.15 and a low dissipation factor of 0.0027, the RO3206 materials provide an extended frequency range suitable for applications requiring high-frequency performance, exceeding 40 GHz.

The RO3206 laminates merge the benefits of non-woven PTFE laminates—such as surface smoothness for fine line etching tolerances—with the rigidity of woven-glass PTFE laminates. They can be easily fabricated into printed circuit boards using standard PTFE processing techniques.

Manufactured under an ISO 9002 certified quality system, RO3206 laminates ensure consistent quality and adherence to stringent manufacturing standards.

Key Features and Benefits

The RO3206 PCB offers several key features and benefits:

Woven Glass Reinforcement: Enhances rigidity, simplifying handling during fabrication and assembly.
Uniform Electrical and Mechanical Performance: Ideal for complex multi-layer high-frequency structures, ensuring consistent performance throughout the design.
Low Dielectric Loss: Minimizes signal loss and distortion, enabling excellent high-frequency performance.
Low In-Plane Expansion Coefficient: Matched to copper, compatible with epoxy multi-layer board hybrid designs for reliable surface-mounted assemblies.
Excellent Dimensional Stability: Maintains consistent dimensions during manufacturing, leading to high production yields.
Cost-Effective Pricing: Provides economical solutions for volume manufacturing, making it a cost-efficient choice for large-scale production.
Surface Smoothness: Features a smooth surface for finer line etching tolerances, allowing for precise circuit design and fabrication.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do We Deliver Worldwide?

All PCBs available through Bicheng Ltd can be shipped worldwide to any non-embargoed country. We will choose suitable shipping carriers, including DHL, FedEx, TNT, UPS, EMS, and Aramex.

Is the RO3206 High-Frequency Material in Stock?

We maintain stock of RO3206 laminates in both 25mil and 50mil thicknesses, as well as other Rogers materials (RO3000, RO4000, RT/duroid series). Please consult our sales team for availability and volume pricing.

Can I Collect My Order?

You can pick up your PCB orders from our premises using your account with DHL, UPS, or FedEx. We will assist in preparing the necessary export documents for customs declaration.

How Much Will It Cost for Delivery?

We offer various carriers to choose from. Typically, we select one with the best shipping rates. If your order is urgent, we can help choose a forwarder with faster delivery times.

Am I Able to Return My PCBs?

As PCBs are custom-made products, returns are not allowed unless there are quality issues.

When Will My Order Arrive?

All PCBs are dispatched the same day if fabrication is completed before 5 PM. For Asian clients, delivery typically occurs within 2-3 days; European clients can expect delivery in 6-7 days, while North and South American clients may also receive their orders in 6-7 days. However, carriers do not guarantee these timeframes due to transportation complexities.

Will I Need to Sign for My Package?

All orders are shipped using DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT, Aramex, or EMS, making them fully trackable and often requiring a signature upon delivery.

How Can I Track My Order?

Once your PCB boards are dispatched, you will receive a shipping confirmation email from our sales team, which will include a tracking number. You can track this number on the carrier's official website.

What Should I Do If My Parcel is Damaged or Lost?

Such incidents are rare in our operations. Our PCB boards are packed with bubble materials and KK grade cartons for protection. If your parcel is lost or damaged, please contact us immediately so we can work with the carrier to arrange for replacement production. Retain any damaged items, including packaging, for reference.
