Scope
1.1 Summary
This
method is for measurement of relative
permittivity (ε
r
)
and dissipation factor or loss tangent (tan δ)of
circuit board substrates under stripline conditions. Measure-
ments are made by measuring resonances of a length of strip-
line over a wide frequency range from below 1 GHz to about
14 GHz
(1,2)
.
The method permits a wide variety of specimen
configurations, varying in dielectric thickness, width of center
conductor, and use of clad or laid up conductor foil
(3)
.
Sensi-
tivity to differences in tan δ are enhanced by the ability to
adjust the degree of coupling to the resonator by adjusting an
air gap between probes and the resonator ends. Many of the
principles used in IPC-TM-650, Method 2.5.5.5, are applied in
this method.
1.2
Terminology
Terms
used in this method include:
Complex Relative Permittivity—The values for relative permit-
tivity and dissipation factor considered as a complex number.
Permittivity—Dielectric constant (see IPC-T-50) or relative per-
mittivity. The symbol used in this document is ε
r
. Κ’o
rκ’ are
also sometimes used.
Relative Permittivity—A dimensionless ratio of absolute per-
mittivity of a dielectric to the absolute permittivity of a vacuum.
Loss Tangent—Dissipation factor (see IPC-T-50), dielectric
loss tangent (see 9.2). The symbol used in this document is
tan δ.
1.3
Limitations
The
limitations in described in 1.3.1
through 1.3.4 should be noted.
1.3.1
The
measured effective permittivity for the resonator
element can differ from that observed in an application.
Where the application is in stripline and the line width to
ground plane spacing is less than that of the resonator ele-
ment in the test, the application will exhibit a greater compo-
nent of the electric field in the X, Y plane. Heterogeneous
dielectric composites are anisotropic to some degree, result-
ing in a higher observed ε
r
for
narrower lines.
Microstrip lines in an application may also differ from the test
in the fraction of substrate electric field component in the X, Y
plane.
Bonded stripline assemblies have air excluded between
boards and thus tend to show greater ε
r
values
than would be
obtained with this method using specimen types A or, to
lesser extent, B, as discussed in 3.0.
1.3.2
As
with IPC-TM-650, Method 2.5.5.5, with specimen
type A, or, to a lesser extent, with B (see 3.0), we expect the
method to show a downward bias in measured ε
r
.
This is
caused by the electric field crossing clamped dielectric-
conductor interfaces with air included in the surface rough-
ness.
1.3.3
With
specimen type B, C, or D, the method shows an
upward bias in measured tan δ. This is caused by the surface
roughness and/or surface treatment of the clad copper foil
required for adequate adhesion to the dielectric.
1.3.4
Compared
to IPC-TM-650, Method 2.5.5.5, both
done with computer automated data collection, this method
requires a greater degree of operator skill and more time to
prepare specimens and perform measurements.
1.4
Advantages
1.4.1
The
sensitivity of the method to differences in ε
r
of
specimens
should be superior to that of IPC-TM-650, Method
2.5.5.5 since the specimen comprises all of the dielectric
affecting the measurement.
1.4.2
The
method is known to be more sensitive to differ-
ences in tan δ than IPC-TM-650, Method 2.5.5.5. We believe
the ability to adjust the degree of probe-to-resonator coupling
to a low enough value that Q
loaded
is
close to Q
unloaded
(see
7.2.2)
makes this possible.
1.4.3
The
method is expected to lend itself to use of stable
referee specimens of known electric properties traceable to
NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology).

Test Specimen
Specimen
length corresponds to an
available fixture length L. Longer L values enable lower mini-
mum resonant frequencies to be achieved. L is also the length
dimension of the copper plates described in 5.0. Four types of
specimens can be used for this method, as shown in Figure
1.
3.1
Type A
Two
25.4 mm wide by L long cards etched free
of copper cladding. These are placed on either side of a cen-
ter strip of smooth copper foil of specified thickness and width
and will be assembled between 25.4 mm wide by L long cop-
per foil cards.
3.2
Type B
One
25.4 mm wide by L long card with clad
copper on one side and copper etched off the other side, and
a second card of matching size with clad copper on one side
and copper etched off the other side except for a centered
strip of specified width extending to both ends of the card.
The copper free surface of the first card is assembled against
the etched strip of the other to form the stripline resonator.
3.3
Type C
Two
25.4 mm wide by L long cards with clad
copper on one side and copper etched off the other side
except for a centered strip of specified width extending to
both ends of the card. The etched strip surfaces of both cards
face together to form the stripline resonator.
3.4
Type D
Oversize
cards similar to type B are bonded
together with a selected bonding film and then trimmed to size
to form the stripline resonator assembly. This could be a test
coupon cut from a bonded stripline circuit board assembly.
For types B, C, and D, the specimen card should first be pre-
pared with about 5 mm or more excess length. Wide pressure
sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape can be used to mask the
ground plane side, and a narrow PSA tape can be used to
mask for the centered strip before etching off exposed cop-
per. Trimming the excess length after etching removes any
undercut areas at the ends. Trimming to length should be
done in a way that leaves the end surfaces with sharp edges
and no conductor edge distortion or smears over that surface.
Sanding specimens clamped between paper-phenolic lami-
nate drill-entry boards is an advised method for finishing the
end surfaces.
Type A specimens with untreated smooth copper foil will pro-
vide the most accurate values for tan δ, but will tend to have
a low bias on ε
r
.
Type C eliminates all clamped interfaces with
the air layer between the dielectric and the conductor to give
the most accurate ε
r
value
but, with the copper surfaces
treated for adhesion, tends to have a high bias on dissipation
factor. Type D gives a good measure of practical performance
in an application.
