Rogers Cuclad Series includes CuClad 217, CuClad 233, and CuClad 250 high-frequency PCB material is a PTFE composite material enhanced by glass fiber/cloth. It can be used as PCB substrate and radome in high frequency applications.
CuClad PCB material has low dielectric constant (Dk), ranging from 2.17 to 2.60; Low dielectric loss, X-band loss angle tangent value between 0.0009 and 0.0018, and low moisture absorption. The PCB material can be supplied in a maximum size of 36x48 inches.
Advantages of CuClad PCB material

CuClad 217, CuClad 233, and CuClad 250 PCB materials are woven glass/polytetrafluoroethylene composite materials used as important circuit board substrates. With the precise control of fiber glass/polytetrafluoroethylene film, the Cuclad Series can select a range of options, from the most negative double electric constant and loss tangent to the higher strengthened PCB material with better dimensional stability.
The woven glass fiber reinforced PTFE composites in the Cuclad Series products have greater dimensional stability than non-woven glass fiber reinforced PTFE composites with the same electrical constant. Through the consistency and control of PTFE coated glass fiber cloth, Rogers - ARLON can provide more kinds of dielectric structures, and produce amino acid salts with better dielectric constant uniformity than similar non-woven glass fiber reinforced L amine acid salts. Selenium properties make Cucumber an attractive choice for filters, couplers and low noise amplifiers.
Cuclad PCB material and cross PCB material (the alternate layers of coated glass fiber layers face 90 to each other). This provides true electronic and mechanical isotropy in the xy plane, which is a feature of the Cuclad Series. No other woven or non-woven glass fiber reinforced PTFE PCB material makes this goal. Designers have found that this degree of anisotropy is crucial in some phased array antenna applications.
Cuclad 217 (ER=2.17, 2.20) uses a low glass fiber/polytetrafluoroethylene ratio to provide the Lo West di electrical constant and di spacing coefficient in the glass fiber reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene based PCB material.
These characteristics together provide faster signal propagation speed and higher signal-to-noise ratio.
Cuclad 233 (ER=2.33) uses medium glass fiber/PTFE ratio to balance low dielectric constant and improved dissipation coefficient without sacrificing mechanical properties.
Cuclad 250 (ER=2.40 – 2.60) adopts glass fiber/polytetrafluoroethylene which is higher than glass fiber/polytetrafluoroethylene, and its mechanical properties are equivalent to those of traditional sublayer. In all rectifier circuits, better dimensional stability and lower thermal expansion rate are other important advantages. The electrical performance of CuClad 250GT and CuClad 250GXA was tested at 1MHz and 10GHz respectively.
For key performance applications, "LX" test level can be specified for Cuclad Series products; This means that each piece of paper will be tested separately and a test report will be issued with the order.
