RT/duroid 5880LZ PCB

 

Shot 1: Introduction

Rogers RT/duroid 5880LZ laminates are filled PTFE composites designed for exacting strip-line and micro-strip circuit applications. They are characterized by the unique filler that contributes to their low density and lightweight nature. This makes them particularly well-suited for applications that require high performance while being sensitive to weight considerations.

 

 

 

Shot 2: Features

One of the key features is their low dielectric constant (Dk) of 2.00 +/- 0.04. This low DK is uniform from panel to panel and is constant over a wide frequency range.

 

They exhibit a low dissipation factor ranging from 0.0021 to 0.0027 at 10GHz, further enhancing their electrical performance.

 

RT/duroid 5880LZ PCB possesses a low Z-axis coefficient of thermal expansion, measuring 40 ppm/°C. The low Z-axis CTE provides reliable plated through-hole quality, even in severe thermal shock applications.

 

Furthermore, these laminates possess a low density of 1.4 gm/cm3, which contributes to their lightweight nature. This attribute is particularly advantageous in weight-sensitive applications where reducing overall weight is crucial.

 

In addition to their electrical and thermal properties, RT/duroid 5880LZ laminates offer exceptional resistance to solvents and reagents commonly used in etching or plating processes. They can withstand exposure to various substances, whether hot or cold, without compromising their structural integrity or electrical performance.
