Introducing the IT-180ATC PCB
The IT-180ATC is a cutting-edge, high Tg (175°C) multifunctional filled epoxy laminate designed for advanced electronic applications. With its exceptional thermal reliability and resistance to conductive anodic filaments (CAF), the IT-180ATC is well-suited for demanding environments, including automotive, telecommunications, and data storage systems. This laminate can withstand lead-free assembly processes up to 260°C, making it a versatile choice for modern manufacturing needs.
Key Advantages of the Material
1. High Glass Transition Temperature (Tg): With a Tg of 175°C, the IT-180ATC can maintain its structural integrity and electrical properties in high-temperature settings, making it ideal for automotive engine control units (ECUs) and other demanding applications.
2. Lead-Free Process Compatibility: The IT-180ATC is engineered to withstand lead-free assembly processes up to 260°C, making it compliant with contemporary manufacturing standards.
3. Excellent Thermal Expansion Properties: The PCB features a low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), with X-Axis values of 11-13 ppm/°C and Y-Axis values of 13-15 ppm/°C, ensuring dimensional stability during thermal cycling.
4. CAF Resistance: The material exhibits excellent resistance to CAF, which is crucial for maintaining reliability in humid environments where conductive paths can form.
Technical Specifications
The IT-180ATC PCB is meticulously designed to meet rigorous performance standards. Key specifications include:
- Dielectric Constant (DK): 4.4 at 1 GHz and 4.5 at 1 MHz, supporting effective signal integrity.
- Dissipation Factor (Df): 0.014 at 1 MHz and 0.015 at 1 GHz, indicating minimal energy loss during operation.
- Moisture Resistance: With a moisture absorption rate of only 0.1%, the IT-180ATC is resilient in various environmental conditions.
- Flammability Rating: The material complies with UL94-V0 standards, ensuring it meets safety requirements in critical applications.
