(Printed Circuit Boards are custom-made products, the picture and parameters shown are just for reference)
Overview of Rogers' TC350
Rogers' TC350 is a composite material made from woven fiberglass reinforced, ceramic-filled, and PTFE-based components, specifically designed for printed circuit board (PCB) applications. It aims to enhance heat transfer with "Best-In-Class" thermal conductivity while minimizing dielectric and insertion losses. This reduction in losses leads to improved amplifier and antenna efficiencies.
Features and Benefits
1.Enhanced Thermal Conductivity: The superior thermal conductivity of TC350 enables higher power handling, reduces hot spots, and enhances device reliability. This results in lower junction temperatures and prolongs the lifespan of active components, which is vital for improving power amplifier reliability, increasing mean time between failures (MTBF), and lowering warranty costs.
2.Excellent Dielectric Constant Stability: TC350 exhibits strong dielectric constant stability across a wide temperature range. This stability assists power amplifier and antenna designers in maximizing gain and minimizing bandwidth loss due to dielectric constant drift as operating temperatures fluctuate.
3.Strong Bond to Copper: TC350 forms a robust bond with microwave-grade, low-profile copper, resulting in reduced insertion loss due to skin effect losses, particularly at higher RF and microwave frequencies.
