Dielectric and Magnetic Properties of Printed Wiring Boards and Other Substrate Materials

An overview of dielectric & magnetic material measurements on printed wiring board & substrate materials. The most commonly used methods are presented. An overview of pertinent properties of printed wiring board & substrate materials: cavity & dielectric resonators, reentrant cavity, coaxial probe, full-sheet resonance, stripline, & capacitive methods. Presents the frequency range of applicability & typical uncertainties associated with the methods. The reentrant cavity is useful for both loss & dielectric constant determination for materials of thickness greater than 1/2 mm. The full-sheet resonance technique is useful for the determination of the real part of the permittivity of clad substrate materials.Baker-Jarvis, James is the author of 'Dielectric and Magnetic Properties of Printed Wiring Boards and Other Substrate Materials' with ISBN 9780756706838 and ISBN 0756706831.
