Dual Layer 1oz Bare Copper RF PCB Board 20mil RF-30A

Product Specification

Introducing our newly shipped PCB which is made of RF-30A material. The RF-30A PCB is a cutting-edge organic-ceramic laminate designed specifically for high-volume commercial microwave and radio frequency applications. Crafted with Taconic's expertise in ceramic filler and PTFE coating technology, this PCB stands as the epitome of quality and performance.

Featuring woven glass reinforcement, RF-30A boasts exceptional electrical and mechanical properties that exceed the expectations of even the most demanding designers. Its low-loss dielectric substrate, coupled with a low-profile copper foil, ensures stable electrical properties, resulting in improved PIMD levels and lower insertion loss across a wide bandwidth.

The stability of RF-30A extends beyond its electrical performance. With lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) values, enhanced dimensional stability, and increased rigidity, RF components are shielded from external factors, ensuring their longevity and reliability.

One critical aspect of RF-30A is its outstanding peel strength for 1/2 ounce and 1 ounce RT copper, making it an ideal choice for rework or repeated reflow processes. Furthermore, its ultra-low moisture absorption rate and stable loss tangent contribute to minimized phase shift, even in varying temperature and humidity environments. Dimensional movement is significantly reduced, resulting in stable phase and impedance properties across a broad frequency range.

RF-30A has been meticulously optimized with ceramic to achieve a low Z-axis CTE, enhancing the reliability of plated through holes (PTH) and simplifying the fabrication of multilayer circuits. These properties further contribute to stable PIMD performance, ensuring your RF designs operate flawlessly.
