RO4725JXR High Frequency PCB

Introduction

Antenna-grade laminates of RO4725JXR are composed of a hydrocarbon, ceramic, and woven glass composite. The resin system of the dielectric materials provides essential properties for optimal antenna performance. RO4725JXR is fully compatible with traditional FR-4 and high-temperature lead-free solder processing. Unlike conventional PTFE-based laminates, RO4725JXR does not require special treatment for plated through-hole preparation. This makes it a cost-effective alternative to traditional PTFE-based antenna materials, enabling designers to achieve a balance between cost and performance.

Features

RO4725JXR showcases distinctive attributes:

Low Dielectric Constant: With a precise value of 2.55 ± 0.05 at 10GHz, signal propagation is optimized. Consistent signal transmission and reception are ensured by a stable dielectric constant.

Low Z-axis CTE: Maintaining stability, the coefficient stands at 25.6 ppm/°C, preventing material expansion or contraction amidst temperature fluctuations.

Low TCDk: The +34 ppm/°C TCDk guarantees a stable dielectric constant across varying temperatures.

Low Dissipation Factor: At 10GHz, the 0.0026 dissipation factor minimizes energy loss as heat during signal transmission.

High Tg: With a Tg exceeding 280°C, the material retains its physical properties even under high-temperature conditions.

Reduced PIM Value: Notably, RO4725JXR boasts a reduced passive inter-modulation (PIM) value of -166 dBC, enhancing antenna performance, particularly in high-power scenarios.
