Introduction
Rogers’ IsoClad 917 laminates utilize a minimal amount of non-woven fiberglass/PTFE to attain the lowest dielectric constant and dissipation factor in their category. The non-woven reinforcement enables these laminates to be suitable for applications where the final PCB might need to be bent, such as conformal or wrap-around antennas. IsoClad 917's unique longer random fibers and proprietary manufacturing process offer superior dimensional stability and uniformity of dielectric constant compared to competitors in similar categories.
Features
The IsoClad 917 showcases a dielectric constant (Dk) of 2.17 or 2.20, offering precise performance with a tolerance of ±0.03 at 10 GHz.
In addition, the material boasts an impressively low dissipation factor of 0.0013 at the same frequency, ensuring minimal signal loss and enhanced signal integrity.
Its highly isotropic nature across the X, Y, and Z axes ensures uniform electrical performance and reliability in diverse applications.
Moreover, IsoClad 917 features a low moisture absorption rate of just 0.04%.
In addition to its superior electrical properties, IsoClad917 is less rigid than traditional woven fiberglass materials, offering enhanced flexibility.
