Materials Meet Needs of Millimeter-Wave 5G Small Cells
Fifth Generation (5G) networks offer extensive wireless services with even faster data rates to come. Most of the systems have been based on signals below 6 GHz. Once network coverage has been achieved at higher, millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies of 24 GHz and higher, 5G networks will support multi-gigabit…
PCB Materials Pave the Way to Faster, Higher-Frequency Circuits
Designers looking to trim losses, size, and weight from high-speed, high-frequency printed-circuit boards (PCBs) will want to visit Isola Group in Booth #5090 at IMS2022. There, the company will display an array of its advanced circuit materials, which are formulated for low loss in RF/microwave and mmWave…
The Importance of Circuit Board Material for Millimeter-wave Circuits
Growing demands for higher data rates and real-time video require wide bandwidths that are only available at 24 GHz and above. This calls for more than simple network infrastructure additions or modifications as the shorter wavelengths at these frequencies propagate over shorter distances than at microwave frequencies. For expanding 5G…
Machining Materials for Multilayer Circuits
Electronic products continue to add functions in smaller packages, even for traditionally large systems such as computer servers and wired telecommunications networks. Multilayer circuits are essential for providing more electronic capabilities in smaller sizes, often relying on highly integrated circuits (ICs) and surface-mount-technology components to fit all the functions. Reliable…
