Introduction to TLX-8 PCB:

Taconic TLX-8 PCB stands as a high-performance RF circuit material engineered for reliability across diverse applications. With a stable dielectric constant (Dk) range of 2.55 and multiple thickness and copper cladding options, this PTFE-based fiberglass laminate delivers exceptional versatility for low-layer-count microwave designs. TLX-8 PCBs balanced electrical and mechanical properties make it an industry-preferred substrate for RF systems operating under demanding conditions.

 

Ideal for radar systems, mobile communication infrastructure, microwave test equipment, and RF components, TLX-8 PCB performs consistently in extreme environmentsincluding aerospace, automotive, and marine applications. The material exhibits strong resistance to vibration, temperature fluctuations, and radiation, making it suitable for space launch systems, engine control modules, naval antenna systems, and airborne altimeters.

 

The TLX series includes multiple formulations tailored to specific Dk requirements:

 

TLX-0 (Dk 2.45) thickness range: 0.127mm6.35mm

 

TLX-9 (Dk 2.50) thickness range: 0.05mm6.35mm

 

TLX-8 (Dk 2.55) thickness range: 0.064mm6.35mm

 

TLX-7 (Dk 2.60) thickness range: 0.089mm6.35mm

 

TLX-6 (Dk 2.65) thickness range: 0.089mm6.35mm

 

 

Each variant combines PTFEs low-loss characteristics with the structural benefits of woven fiberglass, offering designers a robust material solution for high-frequency and high-reliability applications.
