EMBEDDED PASSIVES
To achieve greater packing density for surface mounted components, it may be necessary to embed certain passive items like resistors and capacitors within a PCB plane. There are several products today that can help designers achieve those goals.
About EMBEDDED PASSIVES
Embedded passives within PCB boards are not a new concept and have been around for over a decade. The traction within the marketplace is slowly increasing due to reliability demands placed on solder joints.
To achieve superior reliability and eliminate the solder joint entirely, Pyralux® APR and Interra® HKO4 products can embedded resistors and capacitors, respectively, into a pair of planes within PCB. Using existing PCB manufacturing steps, most fabricators can handle either material set.

Rigid Laminates
High resin content laminate designed for Ultra Low Loss RF/MW designs. It can used to form embedded or surface antennas.
Most Isola® Laminates are available with OhmegaPly® or Ticer® Resistor Foil.
Flexible Laminates
Embedded capacitance material for rigid PCB applications with energy demanding HDI designs.
