The Reliable Choice for Your Most Demanding RF Designs
When circuit stability, efficiency and longevity are non-negotiable, AD250C from Rogers delivers. This high-tech laminate upholds the toughest requirements through meticulous engineering at the atomic level.
Woven from composite fibers just microns wide, AD250C’s substrate achieves uniformity not seen in other materials. Its PTFE matrix reinforced by ceramic-derived zirconia and alumina lattices maintains dimensional stability within tight tolerances even after years of punishing conditions.
With a dielectric constant held to ±0.05 of 2.5 across a -55°C to 125°C operating range, circuits exhibit consistent impedance and resonance behavior. This prevents drift and reflections that plague less thermally stable boards.
With a dual z-axis CTE of 47/29/196 ppm/°C, warping concerns vanish. Rigid, honeycomb-textured reinforcement endures shocks and vibrations that fracture ordinary FR-4 or TEFLON®-based laminates.
With a loss tangent below 0.0013 from DC up to 26.5GHz, even the most congested multilayer designs transmit signals cleanly. Lower insertion loss enables higher output power or extended range.
Our standard stack builds on this with 0.5oz copper bookending AD250C’s premium 1.524mm core. Multi-layer boards leverage AD250C’s proven properties up to 30+ layers. IPC-6013 Class 3 processing maximizes durability.
