Rogers IsoClad 917 High Frequency PCB - Non-Woven Fiberglass/PTFE Materials for Conformal Antennas and Radar Systems
(Note: Printed Circuit Boards are custom-made products. Images and parameters are for reference only.)
Brief Introduction
The Rogers IsoClad 917 High Frequency PCB is a high-performance circuit board designed for applications requiring low dielectric constant (Dk) and low dissipation factor (Df). Built on Rogers IsoClad 917 laminates, this PCB features non-woven fiberglass/PTFE composites with a low fiberglass/PTFE ratio, achieving a dielectric constant of 2.17 or 2.20 and a dissipation factor of 0.0013 at 10 GHz. The use of longer random fibers and a proprietary manufacturing process ensures excellent dimensional stability and uniform dielectric properties, making it ideal for conformal antennas, stripline circuits, and radar systems.
