F4BTMS High Frequency PCB
|
|
|
|
|
|
Introduction |
|
|
|
|
|
The F4BTMS series is an upgraded version of the F4BTM series. Building upon its foundation, significant technological advancements have been made in material formulation and manufacturing processes. The material now incorporates a large amount of ceramics and utilizes ultra-thin and ultra-fine fiberglass cloth reinforcement. These enhancements have greatly improved the material's performance, resulting in a wider range of dielectric constants. It is a high-reliability material suitable for aerospace applications, capable of replacing similar foreign products. |
|
|
|
|
|
By incorporating a small amount of ultra-thin and ultra-fine fiberglass cloth reinforcement, along with a significant and uniform mixture of special nanoceramics and polytetrafluoroethylene resin, the fiberglass effect during the propagation of electromagnetic waves is minimized, reducing dielectric loss and enhancing dimensional stability. The material exhibits reduced anisotropy in the X/Y/Z directions, allowing for higher frequency usage, increased electrical strength, and improved thermal conductivity. The material also possesses excellent low coefficient of thermal expansion and stable dielectric temperature characteristics. |
|
|
|
|
|
The F4BTMS series comes standard with RTF low roughness copper foil, which not only reduces conductor loss but also provides excellent peel strength. It can be paired with copper-based or aluminum-based options. |
|
|
|
|
|
F4BTMS294 can be combined with buried 50Ω resistor copper foil to create a resistor film substrate. |
|
|
|
|
|
The circuit boards can be processed using standard PTFE board fabrication techniques, taking advantage of the excellent mechanical and physical properties of the material. They are suitable for multi-layer, high-layer-count, and backplane processing. Additionally, they exhibit excellent processability in dense hole and fine line routing. |

A F4BTMS PCB and Typical Applications: |
|
|
|
|
|
Presented on the screen is an F4BTMS high-frequency PCB, utilizing a 3.2mm substrate with HASL coating on the pads. F4BTMS PCBs are extensively employed in various domains, including: |
|
|
|
|
|
Aerospace and aviation equipment, space installations, and cabin setups. Microwave and RF applications. Radar systems, particularly in military applications. Feed networks for signal distribution. Phase-sensitive antennas and phased array antennas. Satellite communications, and much more. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Final (F4BTMS series aluminum-based/copper-based boards) This series of laminates can provide aluminum-based or copper-based materials, where one side of the dielectric layer is covered with copper foil, and the other side is covered with an aluminum-based or copper-based layer. This configuration serves as shielding or heat dissipation. |
|
|
|
|
|
The model numbers are F4BTMS***-AL or F4BTMS***-CU. For example, F4BTMS220-AL represents F4BTMS220 with aluminum-based substrate. F4BTMS294-CU represents F4BTMS294 with copper-based substrate. |
