FAQ

It combines stable dielectric constant (~9.6), low loss tangent, moderate thermal conductivity, and strong mechanical strength with high-temperature capability and dimensional stability.

Thin substrates (0.3–0.5 mm) are ideal for lightweight circuits and prototyping, while standard substrates (1–2 mm) fit PCB carriers and LED boards. For high-power devices and heat spreaders, thick substrates (≥3 mm) provide stability and efficient heat dissipation.

Alumina maintains dielectric and mechanical stability at high temperatures where FR-4 softens; it also offers better heat spreading and lower RF loss for many high-frequency designs.
