11. TP2000 Material Overview

TP2000 PCB material is a unique high frequency thermoplastic material in the industry. The dielectric layer of TP based sheets — a high-performance TP laminate — is composed of ceramic and polyphenylene oxide (PPO) resin, with no glass fiber reinforcement, engineered for high-frequency RF and microwave applications. It features an ultra-high dielectric constant, ultra-low dissipation factor, and excellent thermal stability, making it ideal for designs requiring compact size and high signal integrity. The material operates reliably across a wide temperature range and is easy to machine, supporting standard PCB fabrication processes.

12. Key Features of TP2000 Material

  1. Dielectric Constant (DK): 20 at 5GHz; DK can be arbitrarily selected in the range of 3 to 25 according to circuit requirements, with stable performance. Common DK values include 3.0, 4.4, 6.0, 6.15, 9.2, 9.6, 10.2, 11, 16, 20.
  2. Dissipation Factor (Df): 0.002 at 5GHz; low dielectric loss, which increases with frequency but does not change significantly within 10 GHz.
  3. Thermal Performance: Operating temperature range of -100°C to +150°C (excellent low-temperature resistance); TCDK of -55 ppm/°C; UL 94-V0 flammability rating.
  4. Mechanical & Dimensional Stability: High mechanical strength; CTE values of X=35 ppm/°C, Y=35 ppm/°C, Z=40 ppm/°C; excellent radiation resistance and low outgassing.
  5. Machinability: Easy to machine (drilling, turning, grinding, shearing, engraving, etc.), superior to ceramic substrates; compatible with standard PCB fabrication processes.
  6. Copper Adhesion: Strong adhesion between copper foil and dielectric, better than vacuum-deposited metal films on ceramic substrates.
  7. Thickness Options: Minimum thickness of 0.5mm, various thicknesses available, with custom thickness possible.
  8. Processing Notes: Not suitable for 260°C thermal shock testing and cannot withstand wave soldering; recommended soldering method is manual soldering with a constant-temperature soldering iron; reflow soldering is not recommended (max temperature ≤200°C if necessary).

13. TP Material Classification

  1. TP: Bare, copper-free smooth-surfaced material, suitable for custom copper cladding processes.
  2. TP-1: Material with copper cladding on one side, cost-effective for simple high-frequency circuit designs.
  3. TP-2: Material with copper cladding on both sides, ideal for 2-layer PCB fabrication requiring interlayer connections.
