The Arlon DiClad 880 Low DK PCB is a high-performance, 2-layer laminate engineered specifically for high-frequency RF and microwave applications. Featuring a precise, low dielectric constant (DK) of 2.20, this board minimizes signal propagation delay and cross-talk, making it an ideal choice for advanced GPS antenna configurations. Designed to maintain stable electrical properties across a wide frequency spectrum, it ensures consistent impedance control for aerospace and telecommunications hardware developers who cannot compromise on signal integrity.
Key Features of Arlon DiClad 880 Low DK PCB
-
Controlled Dielectric Constant: Strict DK tolerance of 2.20 (±0.02) ensures predictable RF performance up to X-band and beyond.
-
Low Dissipation Factor: A dissipation factor of 0.0009 at 10 GHz reduces insertion loss and heat dissipation in power-sensitive antenna arrays.
-
Woven Fiberglass Reinforcement: PTFE-matted woven fiberglass substrate delivers excellent dimensional stability and uniform mechanical strength.
-
Low Moisture Absorption: Extremely low moisture absorption rates prevent performance drift in high-humidity or changing outdoor environments.
-
Copper Cladding Options: Available with electrodeposited or rolled annealed copper foil to minimise skin effect losses at microwave frequencies.
Applications
-
Aerospace & Defence: Airborne radar systems, satellite communication payloads, and electronic warfare modules.
-
Telecommunications: High-gain commercial GPS antennas, base station power amplifiers, and LNBs.
-
Industrial Electronics: Telemetry systems, microwave backhaul links, and high-speed digital backplanes.
