Taconic 62mil TLX-6 High Frequency Printed Circuit Board With Immersion Gold
With its wide range of applications and versatile characteristics, TLX is a dependable choice for various RF needs. This PTFE-based fiberglass laminate offers a DK range of 2.45 - 2.65, ensuring flexibility in design options by providing different thicknesses and copper cladding. It particularly excels in low layer count microwave designs.
Ideal for radar systems, mobile communications, microwave test equipment, microwave transmission devices, and RF components, TLX demonstrates its capabilities as a workhorse in the RF microwave substrate realm. The fiberglass construction of TLX provides mechanical reinforcement, making it a reliable choice for environments with extreme conditions.
TLX proves its worth in scenarios where substrates experience severe conditions, such as resisting creep in PCBs attached to housings subjected to high vibration during space launch. It also withstands high temperatures in engine modules, radiation in space, extreme environments at sea for warship antennas, and varying temperatures during flight for altimeters.
The TLX family comprises different variants, including TLX-0 (dk2.45), TLX-9 (dk2.50), TLX-8 (dk2.55), TLX-7 (dk2.60), and TLX-6 (dk2.65). Each variant offers a dielectric thickness ranging from 0.127mm to 6.35mm (5mil-250mil) for TLX-0, 0.05mm to 6.35mm (2mil - 250mil) for TLX-9, 0.064mm to 6.35mm (2.5mil to 250mil) for TLX-8, 0.089mm to 6.35mm (3.5mil - 250mil) for TLX-7, and 0.089mm to 6.35mm (3.5mil to 250mil) for TLX-6.
Benefits of TLX include excellent mechanical and thermal properties, low and stable DK, dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, UL 94 V-O rating, tightly controlled DK, low DF, and suitability for low layer count microwave designs.
TLX finds application in various areas, including antennas, couplers, splitters, combiners, amplifiers, mixers, filters, and passive components. Its versatility and reliability make it a preferred choice for a wide range of RF needs. Trust TLX to deliver exceptional performance in demanding RF applications.
