Breaking High-speed Material Constraints: Design007 Magazine — May 2024
May 14, 2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The world of PCB materials used to be a fairly simple one. It was divided into two groups: the “traditional” laminates and the high-speed laminates developed especially for high-speed PCBs.
But then traditional laminates started getting better, and high-speed designers and design engineers took notice. The resin systems have improved to the point that designers are now using flavors of FR-4 for some high-speed PCBs, saving time and money, while streamlining the fab process. In this issue of Design007 Magazine, our contributors explain how to avoid overconstraining your materials when working with high-speed boards. Don’t miss it.
