Microwave & RF PCB
RF and Microwave PCBs are considered some of the most advanced Circuit boards in the industry. Even Signals beyond 1Ghz require a fair share of caution and effort for designing. Some of the advantages are
Microwave and RF PCBs?
RF Microwave PCB Design & Fabrication
RF microwave PCBs are typically built using advanced composites with very specific characteristics for dielectric constant (Er), loss tangent, and co-efficient of thermal expansion (CTE).

Finally, a thorough analysis of RF PCB material is a must, and it will help to get our devices with high quality and competitive pricing.
What is a Microwave PCB?
The main difference between RF circuit boards and Microwave PCBs is in the radio frequency in which they operate. Microwave PCBs are classified as any RF circuit board operating above 2GHz.
Microwave PCB and RF Circuits–Common Problems and Solutions
RF circuit boards, and Microwave PCBs, are especially difficult to design compared to traditional PCB layouts. This is due to the problems that could arise in receiving or transmitting the radio signals. Some of the main problems are noise sensitivity, and tighter impedance tolerances

Types of RF Printed Circuit Boards
- Rigid RF PCBs
- Flexible RF PCBs
- Rigid-Flex RF PCBs
- RF Antenna PCBs
Rigid RF PCBs are the ones produced by high-speed radio frequency materials. It can be a single layer, double layers and multilayers. Most time it is multilayers since there are impedances embedded in RF PCBs. For multi-layer RF PCBs, the substrate material is sandwiched together with copper traces in multiple layers
They utilize flexible substrate materials like polyimide or polyester for the formation of the board. They can be used to fit into compact and irregular spaces accordingly. It finds applications in areas where mechanical flexibility is an important requirement.
The combination of rigid and flexible substrate material in a single board is why it is called rigid-flex RF PCBs. They have the features of both rigid and flex PCBs combined together and offer some design complexity by maintaining the signal integrity of the RF board.
They are specifically built for applications involving RF antennas. Here the PCB itself may serve as the antenna structure. They are designed in a way to optimize antenna performance in terms of gain,
