FR4 PCB – Economical Substrate Material Choice – FS Technology

FR4 PCB

Meaning of FR-4: Composite PCB Manufacturing Material and Rating Unit.

In electronic engineering, different substrate materials are chosen based on their application characteristics. For instance, high-frequency circuits use Rogers, while RF circuits use Teflon (a comparison of FR4 with other PCB materials is provided below). Typically, we refer to circuit boards based on the substrate material name. FR-4 in PCB has a dual meaning:

  • As a substrate material, it refers to the glass fiber-reinforced epoxy laminate.
  • As a fire resistance rating, including FR-1, FR-2, FR-3, and FR-4.

For cost-effective projects, using FR-4 to construct circuit boards is a wise choice. It complies with the UL94V-0 standard, providing sufficient mechanical strength and self-extinguishing capabilities. Here, we not only elaborate on FS Technology’s manufacturing capabilities but also provide FR-4 material specifications. Whether you are in the process of selecting substrate materials for your project or seeking FR-4 PCB solutions, you will find this information helpful!
