M/A-COM recommends an FR-4 dielectric thickness of 0.008” (0.20 mm) yielding a 50 Ω line width of 0.015” (0.38 mm). The recommended RF metalization is 1 ounce copper. 4 M/A-COM Inc. and its affiliates reserve the right to make changes to the product(s) or information contained herein without notice.
