Key Features of Rogers CuClad 233

• Beyond its base properties, CuClad 233 offers a range of features that elevate the PCB’s performance:

• Electrical Stability: Dielectric Constant (Dk) of 2.33 at 10GHz and 1MHz, with a low dissipation factor of 0.0013 at 10GHz, minimizing signal loss in high-frequency applications.

• Mechanical and Environmental Resilience: Low moisture absorption (0.02%) and strong peel strength (14 lbs/in) ensure durability in harsh conditions.

• Outgassing Control: Ultra-low Total Mass Loss (TML) of 0.01%, Collected Volatile Condensable Material (CVCM) of 0.01%, and zero Water Vapor Regain (WVR), making it suitable for aerospace and high-reliability environments.

• Uniformity: Better dielectric constant uniformity compared to non-woven fiberglass reinforced laminates, ensuring consistent performance across the board.

• Material Balance: High PTFE to glass ratio, enhancing electrical performance while maintaining structural rigidity.

Benefits of CuClad 233

These features translate to critical advantages for the PCB:

• Stable Dk Over Frequency: Ensures consistent signal propagation across a wide range of operating frequencies.

• Reduced Insertion Loss: Low Dk supports wider line widths, minimizing signal attenuation in high-frequency circuits.

• Low Circuit Losses: Enhances overall efficiency, particularly in microwave and radar systems.

• Scalability: Supports large PCB and antenna formats, making it suitable for applications requiring extended layouts.

• Compatibility: In-plane CTE (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) matches aluminum used in aircraft skins/structures, reducing thermal stress in aerospace applications.
