Product Description
The RO3203 High Frequency Circuit Materials from Rogers Corporation are ceramic-filled laminates reinforced with woven fiberglass. These materials are engineered for exceptional electrical performance and mechanical stability while maintaining competitive pricing. Key properties include:
*Dielectric Constant (DK): 3.02
*Dissipation Factor (DF): 0.0016
*Frequency Range: Effective beyond 40 GHz
RO3203 laminates combine the smooth surface of non-woven PTFE laminates, allowing for finer line etching tolerances, with the rigidity of woven-glass PTFE laminates. They can be fabricated into printed circuit boards using standard PTFE processing techniques. Available cladding options include 0.5, 1, or 2 oz./ft² (17, 35, 70 microns thick) of electrodeposited copper foil. All laminates are manufactured under an ISO 9002 certified quality system.
Features
1.Woven Glass Reinforcement: Enhances rigidity for easier handling.
2.Uniform Electrical and Mechanical Performance: Ideal for complex multilayer high-frequency structures.
3.Low Dielectric Loss: Suitable for high-frequency applications exceeding 20 GHz.
4.Excellent Mechanical Properties: Compatible with a wide range of dielectric constants, making it ideal for multilayer board designs.
5.Low In-Plane Expansion Coefficient: Matches copper, suitable for use with epoxy glass multilayer board hybrid designs and reliable surface-mounted assemblies.
6.Dimensional Stability: Provides excellent stability for high production yields.
7.Economically Priced: Cost-effective for volume manufacturing.
8.Surface Smoothness: Facilitates finer line etching tolerances.
