Microwave PCBs are designed for high-frequency applications (1 GHz to 100 GHz) using low-loss materials like Rogers and PTFE. Manufacturing requires precise impedance control, tight layer alignment, and advanced thermal management to ensure signal integrity and stability in high-power environments.
Microwave boards live or die on dielectric control. We fabricate on PTFE and ceramic-filled laminates (RT/duroid, TLY-5, RO3000 and more) with tight etch, verified impedance and the low-loss performance your link budget assumes.
Decisions that belong in your design phase — we confirm all of them at DFM before production.
Define CPW / microstrip targets with your stack-up; we confirm feasibility at DFM before production starts.
At mmWave, skin-effect losses are dominated by foil roughness — we match laminate and copper foil type to your frequency.
Ground via stitching and backdrilling keep return paths short; laser vias (4–6 mil) minimize stub effects.
Microwave layer + FR-4 for digital/control routing cuts cost 30–60% without touching RF performance.
The failure modes that ruin microwave builds elsewhere; these are controlled steps on our floor.
Trace width errors shift impedance directly — our 3/3 mil control keeps mmWave lines within spec.
Soft, low-modulus laminates smear and tear easily; parameters are tuned per material, not per machine.
Special pre-treatment is required before electroless copper — skipped by many shops, standard for us.
PTFE laminates warp more than FR-4; symmetric stack-ups and controlled press cycles keep panels flat.
Capability-backed reasons — every number on this page comes from our own process capability sheet.
Every panel is verified with coupon testing — <50 Ω ±5 Ω, ≥50 Ω ±10%.
RT/duroid, RO3000, TLY/TLT, F4B and hybrids — no waiting on material procurement.
Backdrilling, resin/copper-filled vias and cavity features stay on our floor, not outsourced.
Up to 12 oz finished copper for power amplifiers and RF front ends.
Keep exploring the capability chain — most projects touch more than one of these.
