A new 16-page Material Selection Guide for its BISCO® Silicone material. These materials, which are offered in cellular, solid and specialty grades, are used in a wide range of markets, from transportation and communications to electronics and high intensity lighting. Applications include gaskets and seals, high temperature PCB thermal insulation and battery shields, automotive heat shields, and vibration and acoustic mitigation pads.
ECCOPAD® MetalTag is a true read on metal EPC Gen 2 compatible UHF RFID tag. Constructed using a tough elastomer and a patented material, MetalTag can withstand severe outdoor conditions and wide temperature changes.
A leading manufacturer of Spectrum Analyzers with CATV and QAM / Video demodulation and measurements capabilities turned to Emerson & Cuming Microwave Products to quell an EMI problem in one of their front-end modules.
This paper describes the regulations introduced in Europe that are driving electrical and electronic original equipment manufacturers to move towards non-bromine containing base materials and prepregs (pre-impregnated) to produce printed circuit boards, although the regulations do not acutally ban the FR-4 materials, only bromine content.
The reasons for selecting circuit board are threefold. First, to allow the integration of digital and Radio Frequency (RF) circuitry into a single assembly. Second, to decrease overall printed circuit board (PCB) size. Third to provide additional thermal paths and increase the rigidity of the final assembly.
Teflon(R) (PTFE microwave laminates are increasingly being used in both RF and digital designs. Higher frequencies and data rates require material with a very low electrical loss, cinsistent dielectric constant, and tight thickness tolerance.
