What is RF & Microwave PCB?

RF & Microwave PCB is a specialized high-frequency circuit board designed for radio frequency and microwave signal transmission. Different from standard FR4 PCBs, it uses low-loss dielectric materials and ultra-precision fabrication processes to reduce insertion loss, return loss and signal phase distortion.

  • Low-Loss Dielectric Performance

    Uses low Dk/Df substrates to maintain minimal signal attenuation and stable transmission at GHz-level high frequencies.

  • Ultra-Precision Impedance Control

    Strict line width and layer thickness tolerance ensures accurate impedance matching for RF antenna, filter and transceiver circuits.

  • Homogeneous Stack-Up Consistency

    Uniform lamination and material flatness prevent frequency offset and signal deviation in high-frequency working scenarios.

Yongshuo FAQs

Not necessarily. Low-loss FR4 works for low-frequency RF below 6GHz. 5G sub-6GHz and millimeter-wave circuits require Rogers, Isola or PTFE substrates to reduce high-frequency signal loss and phase shift.
