RF-35TC High frequency PCB
introduction
Taconic RF-35TC high frequency materials are PTFE based, ceramic
filled fiberglass laminates which provide low dissipation factor
and high thermal conductivity. The heat is diffused away from both
transmission lines and surface mount components such as capacitors
etc. It will not oxidize, yellow or show upward drift in dielectric
constant and dissipation factor like its synthetic rubber
(hydrocarbon) competitors. This material is best suited for high
power applications.
Benefits
RF-35TC offers several significant benefits that make it an ideal
choice for RF applications.
Firstly, it features a "Best in Class" loss tangent of 0.002 at
10GHz, resulting in minimal signal loss and superior signal
integrity.
Secondly, RF-35TC excels in thermal management with a true thermal
conductivity of 0.6W/m/k (unclad),effectively dissipating
component-generated heat.
Another key benefit lies in its stable dielectric constant (Dk)
across a wide temperature spectrum, ensuring consistent electrical
performance in varying environmental conditions.
RF-35TC enhances antenna gains and efficiencies, contributing to
superior signal propagation and reception, thereby improving
antenna performance.
Furthermore, its excellent adhesion to Very Low Profile (VLP)
copper ensures robust bonding between PCB material and copper
layers, enhancing reliability and durability for demanding
applications.
