Kappa 438 RF PCB Rogers 60mil 1.524mm DK 4.38 Printed Circuit Board with Immersion Gold for Wireless Meters

(Printed Circuit Boards are custom-made products, the picture and parameters shown are just for reference)

Rogers Kappa 438 laminates were designed using a glass reinforced hydrocarbon ceramic system that offers superior high frequency performance and low cost circuit fabrication resulting in a low loss material which can be fabricated using standard epoxy/glass (FR-4) processes. Kappa 438 laminates also have the UL 94 V-0 flame retardant rating and are lead free solder process compatible.

Kappa 438 laminates offer dielectric constants (Dk) tailored to FR-4 industry standard norms which facilities ease of converting existing FR-4 designs where better electrical performance is needed.

Features

1. Glass reinforced hydrocarbon thermoset platform

2. Dk of 4.38 is tailored to FR-4 industry standard norms

3. Tighter Dk and thickness tolerance than FR-4

4. Low Z Axis CTE of 42 ppm/°C

5. High Tg of > 280°C TMA

6. Meets UL 94-V0 requirements

Benefits

1. Ease of PCB manufacturing and assembly in Line with FR-4

2. Design Dk enables ease of converting existing FR-4 designs needing better electrical performance

3. Consistent circuit performance

4. Improved design flexibility and plated through-hole reliability

5. Automated assembly compatible

Typical Applications:

1. Carrier Grade WiFi/Licensed Assisted Access (LAA)

2. Small Cell and Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS)

3. Vehicle to Vehicle/Vehicle to Infrastructure Communications (V2X)

4. Internet of Things (IoT)

Segments: Smart Home and Wireless Meters
