Rogers Corporation presents RO4730G3 UL 94 V-0 antenna-grade laminates to satisfy existing as well as future efficiency requirements in energetic antenna arrays and also tiny cells, notably in 4G Base Bransceiver Stations (BTS) as well as Internet of Things (IoT) applications along with arising 5G cordless systems.
These Flame-retardant (per UL 94V-0), thermoset laminate materials are an expansion of Rogers’ trustworthy RO4000 high frequency PCB products, which are a prominent choice for base station antennas. RO4730G3 laminates offer the low dielectric constant (Dk) of 3.0 favored by antenna developers, held to a tolerance of ± 0.05 through the density (z axis) when measured at 10 GHz.
RO4730G3 laminates are comprised of ceramic hydrocarbon materials with low-loss LoPro copper foil. They provide superb passive-intermodulation (PIM) performance (typically far better compared to -160 dBc) that makes them eye-catching for intermodulation (IM) sensitive, high-frequency antennas. They are 30% lighter than PTFE motherboard products and showcase a high glass Transition Temperature (Tg) of far better than +280 ° C for compatibility with automated assembly strategies. RO4730G3 circuit laminates display reduced z-axis Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) of 30.3 ppm/ ° C from -55 to +288 ° C for reliable layered with holes (PTHs) in multilayer circuit assemblies. They are lead-free-process compatible as well as deal improved flexural toughness over RO4000JXR products.
The new antenna-grade circuit laminates are syntheticed for consistent performance with temperature. They have a coefficient of thermal growth (CTE) carefully matched to that of copper and low thermal coefficient of dielectric continuous in the z axis (+26 ppm/ ° C at 10 GHz) from -50 to +150 ° C. Additionally, these laminates attain low circuit losses at high frequencies, with a dissipation aspect of 0.0023 at 2.5 GHz and also 0.0029 at 10 GHz.
RO4730G3 laminates supply sensible, economical circuit material options for energetic antenna arrays and PCB antennas for existing cordless applications, consisting of 4G as well as IoT, and those ready to come, such as 5G. With the best mix of materials, these laminates offer an optimum blend of cost, efficiency, and also sturdiness.
