1. Introduction of CuClad 233
Rogers CuClad 233 laminates are cross plied, woven fiberglass and PTFE composite laminates that offer a low dielectric constant value of 2.33. CuClad 233 laminates use a medium fiberglass/PTFE ratio to balance the lower dielectric constant (Dk) and improved dissipation factor without sacrificing mechanical properties. The CuClad 233 laminates have a cross plied construction that provides greater dimensional stability with balanced electrical and mechanical properties.
