RO4003C Hybrid PCB Built on 12mil Core with 6-layer Stackup and Via-filled and Capped

Shipped: 26th-Sep-2023  

The RO4003C material is a reinforced hydrocarbon/ceramic laminate, specifically engineered for performance-sensitive and high-volume applications. Unlike PTFE-based materials, RO4003C offers low dielectric tolerance and low loss, resulting in outstanding electrical performance. With a Dielectric Constant of 3.38 at 10GHz and a Dissipation Factor of 0.0027 at 10GHz, this material enables applications with higher operating frequencies and is ideal for broadband applications.

One of the key advantages of RO4003C PCB is its stable electrical properties across a wide frequency range. This feature allows for the design of controlled impedance transmission lines and ensures the repeatability of filters. Additionally, the material exhibits a low thermal coefficient of dielectric constant, providing excellent dimensional stability even under varying temperature conditions.

RO4003C boasts low Z-axis expansion, which ensures reliable plated through holes and enhances the overall reliability of the PCB. The material also demonstrates a low in-plane expansion coefficient, maintaining stability throughout the circuit processing temperatures.
By using standard glass epoxy processes, RO4003C PCB can be manufactured in high volume, offering a competitive price point without compromising quality. Moreover, this material is CAF resistant, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.
Now, let's delve into the construction details of this 6-layer rigid PCB utilizing the RO4003C material. With a board dimension of 76mm x 74mm (± 0.15mm), this PCB provides ample space for complex designs. It features a minimum Trace/Space of 5/7 mils, allowing for precise and intricate circuitry. The minimum Hole Size of 0.2mm ensures versatility in component mounting. There are no blind vias, simplifying the manufacturing process.
The finished board thickness is 1.1mm, providing durability and stability for your applications. The outer layers have a finished Cu weight of 1oz (1.4 mils), ensuring excellent conductivity. The via plating thickness is 25 μm, guaranteeing reliable connections. The surface finish of Immersion Gold offers a reliable solderable surface that enhances the longevity of the PCB. The top Silkscreen in white provides clear component labeling, while the bottom Silkscreen is also in white. Both the top and bottom Solder Masks in matt blue protect and insulate the circuitry.
Each PCB undergoes a comprehensive 100% electrical test prior to shipment, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. The top layer of the PCB includes a 23mil, 50-ohm impedance trace for single-end type applications. The 0.2mm and 0.25mm vias are resin-filled and capped, ensuring their durability and longevity.
The PCB Statistics of this particular design include 98 components, with a total of 114 pads. Among the pads, there are 35 thru-hole pads, 42 top SMT pads, and 37 bottom SMT pads. The PCB features 62 vias and 12 nets, providing the necessary connectivity for your circuitry.
