The Taconic CER-10 PCB is a premium organic-ceramic laminate engineered specifically for high-frequency applications where space is at a premium. By utilizing a high dielectric constant (Dk) of 10, this material enables substantial circuit miniaturization, making it the go-to choice for RF engineers and procurement managers designing dense microwave assemblies. Its unique composition delivers the mechanical advantages of a woven glass reinforced substrate alongside the electrical performance required for demanding RF applications.
Key Features of Taconic CER-10 PCBs
-
High Dielectric Constant: A nominal Dk of 10.0 allows for smaller circuit footprints and tighter spacing in dense layouts.
-
Low Dissipation Factor: Maintains excellent signal integrity with a low loss tangent, minimizing signal attenuation at high frequencies.
-
Dimensional Stability: Enhanced structural rigidity and low moisture absorption rates ensure reliable performance under varying environmental conditions.
-
Excellent Thermal Conductivity: Efficiently dissipates heat, protecting sensitive components during continuous high-power operation.
-
Interlaminar Uniformity: Provides consistent electrical properties across the entire board surface for predictable impedance matching.
High-Frequency Applications
-
Power Amplifiers: Optimizes space and manages thermal loads in cellular base stations and power amplifier modules.
-
Filters and Couplers: Enables precise fabrication of microstrip and stripline passive components where exact Dk values are critical.
-
Satellite Communications: Supports compact transceiver designs for both commercial and aerospace satellite systems.
-
Radar Systems: Used in phased-array radar modules requiring reliable dielectric properties and structural stability.
