Overview of TMM10

Rogers' TMM10 thermoset microwave materials are ceramic, hydrocarbon, thermoset polymer composites designed for high reliability in plated-thru-hole stripline and microstrip applications. These laminates effectively combine the benefits of both ceramic and traditional PTFE microwave circuit laminates without requiring specialized production techniques.

TMM10 laminates feature an exceptionally low thermal coefficient of dielectric constant, typically less than 30 ppm/°C. Their isotropic coefficients of thermal expansion are closely matched to copper, allowing for the production of high-reliability plated-through holes and minimizing etch shrinkage. Additionally, the thermal conductivity of TMM10 laminates is approximately twice that of traditional PTFE/ceramic laminates, facilitating effective heat removal.

As these laminates are based on thermoset resins, they do not soften when heated, enabling wire bonding of component leads to circuit traces without concerns about pad lifting or substrate deformation.
