    RO4725JXR & RO4730JXR


    Antenna Grade Laminates
    RO4700JXR series antenna grade laminates are a reliable, low-cost alternative to
    the conventional PTFE-based laminates.

    Features/Benefits:
    RO4700JXR Series Laminates - low
    loss dielectric with low profile foil.

    RO4725JXR and RO4730JXR laminates have the mechanical and electrical


    properties that antenna designers need. The laminates have a dielectric constant
    (Dk) of 2.55 and 3.0 and a loss tangent (Df) of 0.0022 measured at 2.5 GHz. These
    values allow antenna designers to realize substantial gain values while minimizing
    signal loss. Materials are available with a demonstrated low PIM performance, with
    values better than -160 dBc (43dBm 1,900MHz signal). [2]

    Reduced PIM
    Low insertion loss
    RO4725JXR Dk 2.55
    RO4730JXR Dk 3.0
    Unique filler / closed microspheres
    Low density
    Light-weight 30% lighter than
    PTFE / Glass
    Low Z-Axis CTE <30ppm/C
    High Tg >280C

    RO4700JXR series antenna grade laminates are compatible with conventional

    Design flexibility

    epoxy and high temperature lead-free solder processing. These laminates do not

    Automated assembly compatible

    require the special treatment needed on traditional PTFE-based laminates for


    plated through hole preparation. Lamination can be achieved using RO4400
    bondply series at 175C. The resin systems of RO4700JXR series materials are

    Low TCDk <40 ppm/C


    Consistent circuit performance
    Specially formulated thermoset resin
    system/filler
    Low TCDk

    designed to provide the properties sought after by antenna designers. The glass

    2.55Dk & 3.0Dk

    transition temperature exceeds 280C (536F), leading to a low Z-axis CTE,

    Ease of fabrication

    excellent plated through hole reliability, and lead-free solder processability.

    PTH process capability


    Environmentally Friendly
    Halogen free
    Lead-free process compatibility
    RoHS compliant

    Prolonged exposure in an oxidative environment may cause changes to the dielectric properties of hydrocarbon based materials. The rate of change increases at higher temperatures and is highly dependent
    on the circuit design. Although Rogers high frequency materials have been used successfully in innumerable applications and reports of oxidation resulting in performance problems are extremely rare, Rogers
    recommends that the customer evaluate each material and design combination to determine fitness for use over the entire life of the end product.
