FR4 Dielektrizitätskonstante Tabelle

Frequenzabhängige Eigenschaften von Standard FR4

FR4 Dielektrizitätskonstante Tabelle

Use this reference chart to estimate how standard FR4 dielectric constant and dissipation factor shift with frequency before final impedance and material decisions.

Die Dielektrizitätskonstante (Dk, εr) und der Verlustfaktor (Df) variieren mit der Frequenz. Nutzen Sie diese Tabelle als Referenz für Standard FR4 (Tg 130-140°C).

FrequenzDielektrizitätskonstante (Dk)Verlustfaktor (Df)
1 MHz4.70.015
10 MHz4.60.018
100 MHz4.50.020
1 GHz4.350.022
2.5 GHz4.300.023
5 GHz4.250.025
10 GHz4.200.028
20 GHz4.150.030

These values are directional engineering reference data for standard FR4 only. Actual dielectric behavior depends on laminate family, resin system, glass style, copper profile, processing, and test method. Final controlled-impedance work should use exact material data from your PCB manufacturer.

When to use this tool

Impedance planning

Check whether your assumed dielectric constant is directionally reasonable before estimating controlled impedance and trace geometry.

High-speed and RF material screening

Use it to understand where standard FR4 starts to become a weak fit for loss-sensitive or higher-frequency routing.

Manufacturer discussion

Bring this into stackup discussions when you need to compare standard FR4 assumptions with real laminate data and fabrication capability.

Practical notes

• Standard FR4 can work for many digital and general-purpose boards, but it is not automatically the right material for every impedance-critical design.

• Dk shifts affect propagation speed and impedance; Df shifts affect insertion loss and signal attenuation.

• At higher frequencies, simplified assumptions become less reliable and material selection becomes more important.

Warum ist Dk wichtig?

Bestimmt Signalgeschwindigkeit und Impedanz. Niedrigeres Dk bei hohen Frequenzen beeinflusst Berechnungen.

Warum ist Df wichtig?

Signalverlust als Wärme. FR4 hat hohes Df (~0.02), ungeeignet für sehr hohe Frequenzen (>5GHz).

Häufige Fragen

FR4 für 5G?

Nein, Df zu hoch. Nutzen Sie spezielle HF-Laminate.

Temperaturrelevanz?

Ja, Dk steigt mit Temperatur. TcDk beachten.
