RO4350B PCB | High-Frequency Rogers PTFE Composite PCB
Some RF materials perform well on paper but become nightmares to manufacture. RO4350B PCB is different.
Rogers RO4350B is a ceramic-filled hydrocarbon/glass-reinforced laminate that delivers the high-frequency performance engineers need—without the processing headaches of pure PTFE. With dielectric constant (Dk) of 3.48 ± 0.05 @ 10GHz and dissipation factor (Df) below 0.0037, it maintains signal integrity from 1GHz well into millimeter-wave ranges.
But here’s what makes it the industry workhorse: RO4350B PCB can be fabricated using standard FR-4 processes. No plasma treatment. No special drilling. No exotic surface preparation. That means faster turnaround, lower cost, and higher yields—without sacrificing RF performance.
At OPCBA, we specialize in precision custom RO4350B PCB manufacturing, from prototype to high-volume production, tailored to your exact impedance, layer count, and application requirements.
What Makes RO4350B PCB Different
Stable Dielectric Properties – Dk = 3.48 ± 0.05 across frequency, with variation over temperature less than 0.4% from -50°C to 150°C. Your simulations match reality, board after board.
Low Signal Loss – Df < 0.0037 @ 10GHz means minimal attenuation in RF paths. For power amplifiers, antenna feeds, and high-frequency links, this matters.
Thermal Stability That Protects Your Design – Tg > 280°C, with Z-axis CTE (32 ppm/°C) closely matched to copper. Through-holes stay intact through multiple reflow cycles and thermal stress.
Process Compatibility – Unlike PTFE-based materials, RO4350B plays nicely with standard PCB fabrication. No special handling. No extended lead times. Just consistent, repeatable results.
RoHS Compliant & UL 94 V-0 Rated – Meets global environmental and flammability standards out of the box.
Manufacturing RO4350B: The Right Way
Material Control – We source only authentic Rogers RO4350B, with full traceability and batch verification. No substitutions, no surprises.
Impedance Control – 50Ω/75Ω or your custom target—we maintain tight tolerances (±5% or better) and test 100% of boards, not samples.
Hybrid Stack-Up Expertise – Many designs pair RO4350B PCB with FR-4 for cost-effective multi-layer constructions. We understand the CTE mismatch and adjust lamination cycles to prevent warping. Symmetrical stack-ups, controlled cooling, verified results.
Critical Parameters – Available thicknesses: 4mil to 60mil. Copper options: 0.5oz to 2oz standard, heavier on request. Surface finish: Immersion silver preferred for >10GHz; ENIG available but understand the loss trade-offs.
Quality Testing – Every board undergoes 100% impedance verification, AOI inspection, electrical continuity testing, and thermal stress validation for hybrid constructions.

Why Work with OPCBA?
There are plenty of shops that can build standard FR-4 boards. Few specialize in the kind of precision RO4350B PCB that goes into high-frequency, mission-critical applications.
We do. Our engineering team understands RF design and the nuances of hydrocarbon/ceramic materials. Our manufacturing process is set up specifically for high-frequency laminates. And our quality control is designed around the one thing that matters most: your board performs, consistently, at the frequencies you need.
Whether you need a high-frequency RF RO4350B PCB for 5G infrastructure, an automotive radar board that survives under-hood temperatures, or a hybrid construction that balances performance and cost, we’re here to help.
