Matrix Electronics, North America’s leading quick turn supplier for raw materials to the printed circuit market announced that the Panasonic Felios R?F705S LCP flex product line has been expanded to now include 5 and 6 mil thick LCP materials.
Since the introduction of Panasonic’s Felios LCP materials customers and designers have been requesting thicker materials to support new RF and 5G designs requirements and to simplify the stack?up of these part designs during fabrication. The newly available 5 and 6 mil LCP materials are available with the specialty EC low loss copper foil cladding in 9, 12, and 18µm. These materials are in stock for purchase, testing, and evaluation. Please contact Matrix customer service for additional information.
Bob Berg, Vice President of Business Development adds: “The demand for LCP flex circuit materials continues to grow to support RF and 5G designs. In addition, the chemical resistance and low moisture absorption of these LCP materials make them highly suitable for many new medical sensor and equipment applications. Matrix is delighted to be the only supplier of LCP materials in North America and like our other circuit materials the Felios LCP line is supported with a fully stocked inventory.”
