   SUBJECT:    laminate with CTI of 400+
   REFERENCE:  what to use?

    We have a customer who has been asked by his designers to provide
    boards with a CTI of greater than 400 and a flammability rating of
    94V-1. They also ask if standard FR4 will comply - at least I know
    the answer to that one.


    I am not sure what laminate will meet this requirement - FR3 has
    been suggested, but laminate suppliers always leave off the CTI
    when quoting electrical properties.

    Could someone help identify something to suit?


    On another issue, I always get confused when people talk about FR3,
    G10, G200, CEM 1, CEM3 etc. I know what FR4 is - glass fibre
    reinforced epoxy laminate - but could someone put the other
    materials into similar English for me?
