Overview

The Keystone 550 is a double-sided copper clad FR4 board designed for custom circuit fabrication and prototyping. Measuring 6 inches by 6 inches with a standard 1/16 inch thickness, it features a 1-ounce copper weight on both sides suitable for creating complex signal layouts. The board utilizes a DICY cured resin system and is engineered for easy cutting and UV blocking.

Why Choose This Part

This board features a DICY (dicyandiamide) cured system for improved thermal performance and chemical resistance during the etching process. It is designed to be easy to cut to specific sizes and includes UV blocking properties to protect the laminate integrity during exposure.

Applications

Custom PCB Prototyping
Ideal for engineers and hobbyists using CNC milling or chemical etching to create bespoke double-sided circuit boards.
RF Shielding
The double-sided copper surface can be used to construct small shielded enclosures or ground planes for high-frequency circuits.
Component Mounting Plates
Acts as a rigid substrate for mounting heavy components while providing a conductive surface for common grounding.

Getting Started

To use this board, clean the copper surface with isopropyl alcohol before applying photoresist or toner for etching. Ensure proper ventilation and use appropriate personal protective equipment when cutting FR4 material to avoid inhaling glass fiber dust.
