The Ultimate Dielectric Reference Is Here: iCD Launches Industry-Leading Materials Library.
July 9, 2025 | ICDEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
In-Circuit Design Pty Ltd (iCD), led by Managing Director Barry Olney, has just unveiled what is arguably the most comprehensive dielectric materials library ever compiled—the new standalone iCD Dielectric Materials Library. With over 1,400 types of rigid and flex materials from 84 leading manufacturers, the library covers everything from core and prepreg to solder mask and coverlay materials, and supports frequencies up to 100GHz.
Designed for all EDA tool users, PCB fabricators, and those using stackup field solvers, this independent, standalone resource is a game-changer for anyone serious about precision and performance in high-speed, high-frequency PCB design.
“No more trawling through spec sheets or outdated datasets chasing dielectric data,” says Olney. “We’ve consolidated decades of material data into a single, fast, accurate, searchable tool. It encompasses practically every material ever created. Whether you're focused on signal integrity, power integrity, EMI performance or just basic analog, RF or mmWave designs this library has you covered.”
