Double-Sided Teflon PCB for the Telecom Industry

With a combination of specialized processes and equipment, Standard Printed Circuit Boards custom manufactured the double-sided, glass-reinforced PTFE printed circuit board (PCB) displayed below. This PCB was a controlled impedance design used within a microwave application.

Utilizing advanced photolithography and chemical etching, trace widths are controlled to a +/- 0.001″. CNC machines were used to bring the part to its final shape and size

This circuit board was manufactured and inspected to the specifications of IPC-6018 Microwave End Product Board Inspection and Test standards. Standard Printed Circuits manufactured a total of 100 double-sided PTFE PCBs for this customer, fulfilling their expectations for both design and quality. All finished units were delivered to our customer’s facility in the Northeastern U.S.
