Rogers RO4730 is a type of high-frequency board that raw material is produced by Rogers company . It is different from the conventional PCB board epoxy resin (FR4). It has no glass fiber in the middle and uses a ceramic base as the high frequency material. Rogers has superior dielectric constant and temperature stability. Its dielectric constant thermal expansion coefficient is very consistent with copper foil, which can be used to improve the deficiencies of PTFE substrates.It is very suitable for high-speed electronic design commercial microwave, and radio frequency applications. Its low water absorption is ideal for high-humidity applications , providing customers in the high-frequency board industry with the highest quality materials and related resources, which fundamentally enhance product quality.
QFPCB factory always stocks most the thickness and specifications of RO4730, RO4003C, RO3003CG2, RT6035HTC,TMM3,TC350 and RO4450F prepreg,which can meet your immediate response PCB needs.

What is the Rogers RO4730™ LoPro™ laminate?
Rogers RO4730™ LoPro™ laminate is a high-frequency material specifically designed for use in various applications, Typical applications is Base Station Antennas.RO4730 LoPro antenna grade laminates are fully compatible with conventional FR4 and high temperature lead-free solder processing.These laminates do not require the special treatment needed on traditional PTFE-based laminates for plated through hole preparation. This product is an affordable alternative to more conventional antenna technologies, thus allowing designers to maximize the price and performance of their antennas.
RO4730 LoPro laminate has excellent thermo-mechanical properties, and electrical characteristics that antenna designers need. The laminates have a dielectric constant (Dk) of 3.0 and a loss tangent (Df) of 0.0023 measured at 2.5 GHz.LoPra copper foil can reduce insertion loss, which makes the material suitable for broadband applications.These values allow antenna designers to realize substantial gain values while minimizing signal loss.Materials are available with a demonstrated low PIM performance, with values better than -154 dBc (Using Rogers’ internal test method).
The resin systems of RO4730 dielectric materials are designed to provide the necessary properties for ideal antenna performance.The coef cients of thermal expansion (CTEs) in both the X and Y directions are similar to that of copper. The good CTE match reduces stresses in the printed circuit board antenna.The typical glass transition temperature of RO4730 materials exceeds 280°C (536°F), leading to a low Z-axis CTE and excellent plated through hole reliability.
QFPCB factory is engaged in the PCB prototype manufacturer of Rogers high-frequency PCB boards, which can meet the various high-frequency PCB needs of customers. Currently, it can achieve 4~20 layers of ceramic pure pressure and more than 20 layers of mixed pressure.
We were contracted to assemble a PCB for use in a military communications application and provided Rogers 4730, Rogers 4350B, Rogers 4003C, Rogers 3003C and RT5880 material assembly services. There are no MOQ 1 panelization is ok. We will perform final testing using automated optical inspections and x-ray inspection prior to product delivery. There will be strict impedance control following specification with a testing report.
With services (special 5G application) from consumer to military PCB industries, we continuously strive to build Rogers PCB products that exceed your expectations, develop long-term customer relationships, and become your best possible manufacturing partner.
