If you’ve wondered about “high Tg” in PCBs, it boils down to heat resistance: Tg (glass transition temperature) is the threshold where a PCB substrate shifts from rigid (glassy state) to flexible (rubbery state).
Standard PCBs have Tg ≥130°C; high Tg PCBs (typically ≥170°C) excel in harsh conditions. When heated—especially in lead-free soldering or high-power devices—common substrates soften, deform, and lose mechanical/electrical performance. High Tg PCBs resist this: they boast better heat stability, moisture resistance, chemical durability, and dimensional rigidity.
As electronics (computers, 5G gear) trend toward multi-layering and SMT miniaturization, high Tg PCBs are non-negotiable. Compared to ordinary FR-4, they maintain strength, adhesion, and stability even after moisture absorption and high-heat exposure—critical for reliable, long-lasting devices.
Need a PCB for high-temperature applications? High Tg is your solution.
