Why Use High Frequency PCB?

  • Low Loss: PTFE materials minimize signal attenuation
  • High Stability: Heat-resistant with low thermal expansion
  • Precise Control: Strict impedance for signal integrity
  • Low Dk & Df: Ideal for high-frequency signals
  • Anti-Interference: Optimized stacking reduces noise
