Shengyi Technology launches high performance material for RF/microwave applications

Shengyi Technology (SYTECH), a company engaged in developing and delivering new laminate materials that meet today’s broad electronic product needs, released AeroWave™. AeroWave™, a high reliability, cost-effective material system targeted towards auto radar (24GHz.), base station transceivers, power amplifiers, telemetry devices and antenna systems.

 

AeroWave™ is a woven glass-reinforced thermoset UL-94 V0 material that exhibits excellent electrical and mechanical properties with a consistent and stable Dk (dielectric constant) and a low Df (dissipation factor) over a wide range of frequencies (1GHz to 35GHz) and temperatures (-40C°to +125C°).

 

Tarun Amla Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer for Shengyi Group, noted that the rapid development and deployment of RF/Microwave products mandates that there be a large number and variety of vendors that can provide superior materials systems to the market place in a cost-effective and timely manner. The company believes that its new AeroWave™ technology addresses this need. With Shengyi’s vast experience as a laminate provider we can deliver cost-competitive; high reliability and production-ready laminates to address a broad spectrum of customer needs.”

 

The AeroWave™ low-loss laminate material presents a strong value proposition for today’s design engineers where cost, performance and manufacturability are paramount. AeroWave materials can be fabricated using standard FR-4 printed circuitry fabrication processes, are well suited for use in hybrid multi-layer printed circuit configurations and are compatible for use in Lead Free assembly processes.

 

AeroWave™ low loss (0.0028 @ 10 GHz) controlled dielectric constant material (+/- 0.05) is available in a broad range of nominal cores and pre-preg. In addition, this new material exhibits exceptional dimensional stability, chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, and copper peel strength. Passive Inter-modulation (PIM) performance values exceeding -160 dBc are typical (RTF and VLP type copper foils). AeroWave™ laminate is available now as AeroWave™ -300, AeroWave™-338, AeroWave™ -350.
