2-Layer Taconic TSM-DS3 0.6mm Immersion Gold PCB: Low-Loss High-Thermal Board for mmWave and Radar Uses
2-Layer Taconic TSM-DS3 0.6mm Immersion Gold PCB: Low-Loss High-Thermal Board for mmWave and Radar Uses
Printed Circuit Boards are custom-made products; the images and specifications provided are for reference only.
1. Introduction
Taconic TSM-DS3 is a high-performance 2-layer rigid printed circuit board built with premium ceramic-filled reinforced TSM-DS3 substrate, engineered to meet the rigorous demands of high-power, high-frequency and thermal-sensitive electronic applications. Taconic TSM-DS3 high-frequency circuit material features an ultra-low fiberglass content of approximately 5%, delivering dimensional stability that competes with traditional epoxy materials while offering superior electrical and thermal performance. As a thermally stable, industry-leading low-loss core substrate, Taconic TSM-DS3 high-frequency laminate ensures consistent, predictable manufacturability even for large-format and complex circuit designs. Boasting a thermal conductivity of 0.65 W/m*K, it efficiently dissipates heat from critical components, ideal for high-power setups; its ultra-low thermal expansion coefficients also make it perfectly suited for harsh thermal cycling environments, standing out as a top choice for reliable, long-lasting high-performance circuits.

2. TSM-DS3 PCB Features
- Stable dielectric constant (Dk) of 3.0 with a tight tolerance of ±0.05 at 10 GHz under 23°C
- Ultra-low dissipation factor (Df) of 0.0014 at 10 GHz for minimal high-frequency signal loss
- High unclad thermal conductivity of 0.65 W/MK for efficient heat dissipation in high-power applications
- Low moisture absorption rate of only 0.07%, ensuring stable performance in humid operating conditions
- CTE perfectly matched to copper: X-axis 10 ppm/°C, Y-axis 16 ppm/°C, Z-axis 23 ppm/°C
3. TSM-DS3 PCB Benefits
- Features ultra-low fiberglass content (around 5%), optimizing material performance and processability
- Offers exceptional dimensional stability comparable to standard epoxy materials
- Supports fabrication of large-format, high-layer count PCBs without compromising quality
- Enables consistent, high-yield production of complex PCB designs with reliable repeatability
- Maintains temperature-stable Dk with ±0.25% variation across -30°C to 120°C temperature range
- Fully compatible with resistive foils, expanding design flexibility for specialized circuits
