Rogers TMM 10 thermoset microwave material is a ceramic thermoset polymer composite designed for high plated thru-hole reliability strip-line and micro-strip applications.
TMM 10 thermoset microwave materials offer the benefits of both PTFE and ceramic based substrates, but is not limited by the same mechanical properties and production techniques.
Features
Dielectric Constant (Dk) of 9.20 +/- .230
Dissipation factor of .0022 at 10GHz
Thermal coefficient of Dk of -38 ppm/°K
Coefficient of thermal expansion matched to copper
Available in a thickness range of .0015 to .500 inches (+/- .0015”)
Benefits
Mechanical properties resist creep and cold flow
Resistant to process chemicals, reducing damage during fabrication
Material does not require a sodium napthanate treatment prior to electroless plating
Based on a thermoset resin, allowing for reliable wire-bonding
