Rogers 4003C PCB Fabrication
PCB Fabrication Company provides Rogers 4003C PCB fabrication for RF, microwave, antenna, radar, wireless communication, and high frequency printed circuit board applications.
What Is Rogers 4003C PCB?
Rogers 4003C PCB is a high frequency printed circuit board manufactured with Rogers RO4003C laminate. It is often selected for RF, microwave, antenna, and wireless communication circuits that require better high frequency performance than standard FR4 PCB material.
Rogers 4003C is commonly used in commercial RF products, radar modules, base station equipment, antenna systems, filters, power amplifiers, and other high frequency PCB designs.
Typical Rogers 4003C PCB Applications
- RF communication PCB
- Microwave PCB and antenna PCB
- Radar and sensor boards
- Wireless base station equipment
- RF filters and couplers
- Power amplifier and low-noise amplifier PCB
- High frequency test and measurement equipment

Rogers 4003C PCB Design Considerations
1. Confirm Exact Material
Rogers 4003C and Rogers 4350B are different RF laminates. The required material should match the customer's design specification and stack-up requirement.
2. Controlled Impedance
If the design includes 50 ohm RF traces, differential traces, coplanar waveguide, or microstrip structures, please provide impedance requirements with the Gerber files.
3. Board Thickness and Copper Weight
Material thickness, finished board thickness, and copper weight directly affect impedance and manufacturability.
4. Surface Finish Choice
Surface finish may affect assembly and RF behavior. Please specify ENIG, immersion silver, lead-free HASL, or other required finish.
