Laminates

CuClad® laminates are woven fiberglass/PTFE composite materials for use as printed circuit board substrates. Using precision control of the fiberglass/PTFE ratio, CuClad laminates offer a range of choices from the lowest dielectric constant and loss tangent to a more highly reinforced laminate with better dimensional stability

Arlon’s AD Series Laminates is a group of woven fiberglass-reinforced PTFE composite materials designed for use as printed circuit board substrates. These materials combine the excellent low loss electrical properties of PTFE resin with the enhanced value of costeffective heavier fiberglass styles to provide low cost laminate materials suitable for high volume commercial wireless communication applications

Rogers Corporation offers an array of RO4835™ high frequency circuit materials designed to operate up to 40 GHz, and provide 10x more resistance to oxidation than standard RF thermoset materials. These laminates feature a dielectric constant of 3.48 with a dissipation factor of 0.0037 (measured at 10 GHz). They are ideal for power amplifiers, phased-array radar, automotive radar, sensor applications, and other applications requiring low insertion loss.

AD1000 is a high dielectric constant substrate that permits circuit miniaturization compared to traditional low loss materials. It is especially beneficial for power amplifiers, filters, couplers and other components using low impedance lines.

Arlon’s AD250C is the third generation, commercial microwave and RF laminate material designed with low dielectric, low cost and excellent low loss characteristics. AD250C is built on a cost-effective combination of composite chemistry and construction to yield an uncompromising level of price-performance for today’s telecommunication infrastructure.

Arlon’s AD300C is the third generation, commercial microwave and RF laminate material designed with low dielectric, low cost and excellent low loss characteristics. This ceramic-filled, woven fiberglass reinforced PTFE composite material is built on a cost-effective construction of unique chemistry formulation and processing to offer RF and Microwave designers an advantage for improving electrical and mechanical performances without the additional cost traditionally associated with higher performance. AD300C provides a significant improvement in cost/ performance over the existing AD300A product line and other traditional fluoropolymer-glass laminates.

Arlon’s reduced Passive Intermodulation (PIM) laminates are a series of woven fiberglass reinforced Teflon (PTFE) composite materials designed for use as printed circuit laminates.

AD300A is a woven fiberglass reinforced PTFE/Microfine Ceramic composite material and is a significant improvement in cost/performance over traditional fluoropolymer-glass laminates. This combination offers designers an advantage for improving electrical performance through the use of advanced material without the additional cost traditionally associated with higher performance...
