As L2+ to L4 autonomous driving technology grows fast, each vehicle now needs 5 ถึง 8 mmWave radar units. The old number was only 1 ถึง 3. The 77GHz mmWave radar offers higher resolution and smaller size. It becomes the core sensor in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
อย่างไรก็ตาม, 77GHz signals face a big challenge on PCB มาตรฐาน. Normal FR-4 material has a loss factor (ฟ) of about 0.02. That is not acceptable. We must use low-loss high-frequency materials and precise hybrid lamination.
UGPCB follows industry-leading standards. We launch the UGPCB Rogers RO4835 77G mmWave Radar Board. This is a deeply optimized high-frequency PCB ไฮบริด for the 77GHz band. It ensures signal integrity and greatly reduces material costs.

คำนิยาม | What Is a 77GHz mmWave Radar PCB?
A 77GHz mmWave radar PCB is a printed circuit board specially made for mmWave radar modules working at 77GHz. This type of พีซีบี must have low Dk, low Df, high dimensional stability, และการจัดการระบายความร้อนที่ดีเยี่ยม.
UGPCB’s Rogers RO4835 77G mmWave radar board uses RO4835 on the core RF layer. It uses cost-effective FR-4 on other layers. This creates a typical high-frequency hybrid PCB solution. The solution protects mmWave signal integrity and controls total cost well. It is an ideal choice for forward radar, corner radar, and 4D imaging radar.
Design Key Points | Core Considerations for mmWave Radar PCB
77GHz is a typical operating frequency in the mmWave band. At this frequency, PCB design must strictly follow high-frequency rules.
1. การควบคุมความต้านทาน
The RF chain (antenna, transceiver, กรอง) on a 77GHz circuit uses a 50Ω characteristic impedance baseline. Engineers use impedance calculation tools like Polar SI9000. They precisely adjust line width, ความหนาอิเล็กทริก, and copper thickness. The goal is ±5% tolerance for single-ended 50Ω and differential 100Ω. For high-frequency microwave PCBs, the industry requires impedance control better than ±5% (that means 47.5–52.5Ω).
2. การเลือกวัสดุ
Standard FR-4 has a Df of about 0.02. Rogers RO4835 has a Df of only 0.0037 (@10GHz). Signal transmission loss differs by more than 5 ครั้ง. Wrong material choice directly reduces radar detection distance dramatically.
3. Stack-up Structure Design
In UGPCB’s 6-layer radar board, RF signal traces run inside the RO4835 dielectric between the top layer (L1) and L2. The other layers use FR-4 material. This ensures low-loss transmission on signal layers. ในขณะเดียวกัน, the FR-4 layers handle power distribution and signal filtering. This stack-up is called an asymmetric design for high-frequency hybrid PCBs.
4. Via Design
77GHz signal vias need controlled impedance discontinuity. UGPCB uses resin plugging. We fill vias with resin and flatten the surface. This avoids signal reflection and loss caused by air gaps.
หลักการทำงาน | How Does a 77GHz Signal Transmit on the PCB?
On a PCB transmission line, high-frequency signal integrity depends on Dk and Df. The 77GHz mmWave radar board uses RO4835’s low Df property. High-frequency electromagnetic waves travel on microstrip or stripline with very little energy loss.
The antenna radiates radar waves into space. Then the receiving antenna sends echo signals back to the transceiver chip (such as NXP, Infineon, or TI 77GHz radar chipset). The hybrid FR-4 layer provides power and low-speed control signals. This keeps the whole module working stably in ADAS systems.
UGPCB PCBA capability further supports component assembly and testing. We offer true one-stop radar module manufacturing.
การใช้งาน | Where to Use 77G mmWave Radar PCB
UGPCB’s 77G mmWave radar board fits many fields:
- Automotive forward radar – for adaptive cruise control (ACC) and automatic emergency braking (AEB)
- Corner radar – for blind spot detection (BSD) and lane change assist (LCA)
- 4D imaging radar – for elevation angle resolution and target classification
- Industrial mmWave radar – automation control, material level detection, security monitoring
- V2X and smart traffic – radar sensors in roadside units (RSU)
การจำแนกประเภท | Scientific Categorization of 77G mmWave Radar PCB
According to industry standards and material systems, UGPCB’s Rogers RO4835 77G mmWave radar board has multiple classifications:
- By material system – RO4835 hydrocarbon resin + ceramic-filled high-frequency laminate (meets IPC-4103)
- By fabrication structure – High-frequency hybrid PCB (RF layer RO4835, ordinary layer FR-4)
- By flame rating – UL 94 วี-0 (self-extinguishes within 10 seconds after removing flame, no flaming drip ignites cotton)
- By PCB level – 6-layer rigid multilayer board
- By surface finish – ENIG (ทองคำแช่นิเกิลแบบไม่ใช้ไฟฟ้า)
Reference note: RO4835 laminate meets IPC-4103 “Specification for High Frequency (ไมโครเวฟ) Base Materials” and satisfies UL 94 วี-0 คะแนนเปลวไฟ. PCB 94V-0 means the material self-extinguishes within 10 seconds after removing the flame source, and no burning drip ignites cotton.
วัสดุที่ใช้ | Scientific Combination of RO4835 and FR-4
UGPCB precisely selects two complementary materials for the radar board:
- Rogers RO4835 – a hydrocarbon resin and ceramic-filled microwave laminate. At 10GHz, Dk is 3.48±0.05 and Df is 0.0037. Oxidation resistance is 10 times better than traditional thermoset materials.
- FR-4 – a cost-effective flame-retardant epoxy woven glass fabric laminate, อล 94 วี-0 ได้รับคะแนน. In the hybrid board, FR-4 handles power layers, ground layers, and low-frequency signal layers.
Because RO4835 and FR-4 have different coefficients of thermal expansion (ซีทีอี), lamination requires a step-wise heating profile and prepreg buffer layers. This prevents warpage and delamination.
ผลงาน | Dielectric, Loss, and Thermal Conductivity – Three in One
UGPCB’s Rogers RO4835 mmWave radar board excels in three key performance indicators:
| พารามิเตอร์ | Value @10GHz | Test Standard / แหล่งที่มา |
|---|---|---|
| ค่าคงที่ไดอิเล็กตริก (ดีเค) | 3.48 ± 0.05 | IPC-TM-650 2.5.5.5 |
| ปัจจัยการกระจาย (ฟ) | 0.0037 | Rogers official datasheet |
| การนำความร้อน | 0.69 w/m · k | ASTM D5470 |
| Flame Rating | อล 94 วี-0 | UL certification |
| Oxidation improvement | 10x better than traditional thermoset | Rogers RO4835 datasheet |
This material has a Dk temperature coefficient of about 50 ppm/°C from -50°C to 150°C. Its Z-axis CTE is 31 ppm/° C. This means the 77G mmWave radar board keeps phase stability in the wide automotive temperature range.
โครงสร้าง | Fine 6-Layer Hybrid Stack-up Design
UGPCB’s typical 6-layer high-frequency hybrid PCB stack-up:
| ชั้น | ทองแดง | วัสดุ | การทำงาน |
|---|---|---|---|
| L1 (สูงสุด) | 1ออนซ์ | RO4835 | Signal – 77GHz RF traces (microstrip) |
| L2 | 1ออนซ์ | RO4835 | Ground – full RF reference ground |
| Dielectric | - | RO4835 (4mil/0.1mm) | Low-loss medium |
| L3 | 1ออนซ์ | RO4835/FR-4 transition | RF stripline / การกระจายพลังงาน |
| L4-L6 | 1ออนซ์ | FR-4 | Conventional signal & power layers |
This structure ensures RF signals travel between L1 and L2 using low-Dk, low-loss material. The FR-4 part handles system logic and power integrity.
