RT-duroid® 5870 and 5880 materials are widely used for high-frequency and microwave circuit designs due to their excellent dielectric properties and low loss. However, their PTFE-based composition and unique mechanical characteristics require specific handling and fabrication processes to maintain performance and reliability.
Striplines are essential in microwave and high-frequency circuit design due to their ability to provide controlled impedance and low loss. Broadside and edgewise configurations offer different advantages in terms of compactness, coupling, and isolation. This guide provides key design equations for both types.
RT-duroid microwave laminates are widely used in high-frequency circuits, where precision and reliability are paramount. During the PCB manufacturing process, stress can develop in the copper and substrate due to chemical etching and thermal cycling.
The reliability of printed circuit boards (PCBs) using RT-duroid 5870 material is influenced by the adhesion of copper foil to the substrate. This study examines the impact of soldering temperatures on copper foil adhesion.
