The Taconic RF-301 PCB Dk 2.97 high-frequency RF antenna board is engineered specifically for high-performance microwave and wireless communications. Built on an organic-ceramic woven glass PTFE matrix, this laminate provides an exceptionally stable dielectric constant ($D_k = 2.97 \pm 0.05$) across a wide temperature range. It is the premier choice for RF engineers, product developers, and procurement specialists who require minimal signal degradation and superior power handling in complex antenna arrays and high-frequency sub-assemblies.
Key Features of Taconic RF-301 PCB
-
Optimized Dielectric Properties: Features a controlled dielectric constant of 2.97 and a low dissipation factor ($D_f = 0.0012$ at 1.9 GHz) to minimise signal attenuation.
-
Excellent Thermal Performance: Low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) in the Z-axis ($50 \text{ ppm/}^{\circ}\text{C}$) ensures reliable plated through-hole (PTH) reliability in fluctuating environments.
-
Dimensional Stability: The woven glass reinforcement provides robust structural integrity, preventing warping during multi-layer lamination and assembly.
-
Low Moisture Absorption: Extremely low moisture absorption rate (<0.02%) maintains electrical stability in humid or harsh outdoor environments.
-
Flexible Copper Cladding: Available with 0.5 oz, 1 oz, or 2 oz electrodeposited or rolled annealed copper to match specific power and impedance requirements.
Applications
-
Base Station Antennas: Ideal for cellular infrastructure, power amplifiers, and filter networks.
-
Aerospace & Defence: Used in radar modules, satellite communication hardware, and guidance systems.
-
Automotive Radar: Supports advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) operating in microwave frequency bands.
-
Wireless Systems: Optimised for WLAN, WiMAX, and remote metering infrastructures.
