Growing use of millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies for applications such as automotive radars, Fifth Generation (5G) wireless networks, and satellite communications (satcom) mandates careful selection of printed-circuit-board (PCB) materials specially formulated to transmit signals at frequencies to 70 GHz and higher. At the same time, digital…

Printed circuit boards have become an integral part of modern electronics. They have evolved from a pure component carrier to an active and important electronic component in their own right. The use of high-frequency materials in particular opens up new possibilities in radar technology or…
