Introduction

RO4360G2 laminates from Rogers Corporation are high-performance materials featuring a dielectric constant (Dk) of 6.15 and low loss characteristics. These glass-reinforced, hydrocarbon ceramic-filled thermoset materials strike an ideal balance between performance and ease of processing. The RO4360G2 laminates enhance Rogers' lineup of advanced materials by offering a lead-free process solution that improves rigidity for better manufacturability in multi-layer board constructions, all while reducing material and fabrication costs.


These laminates process similarly to FR-4 and are compatible with automated assembly. They possess a low Z-axis coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), which provides design flexibility, and share a high glass transition temperature (Tg) with the entire RO4000 product line. Additionally, RO4360G2 laminates can be paired with RO4450F prepreg and lower-Dk RO4000 laminates for multi-layer designs.


With a Dk of 6.15 (Design Dk 6.4), RO4360G2 laminates enable designers to minimize circuit dimensions in applications where size and cost are critical. They are an excellent choice for engineers developing power amplifiers, patch antennas, ground-based radar systems, and various other RF applications.
