What is IEC 63185 about?
IEC 63185 specifies a measurement method for complex permittivity of dielectric substrates at microwave and millimetre-wave frequencies. This method has been developed to evaluate the dielectric properties of low-loss materials used in microwave and millimetre-wave circuits and devices.
The method outlined in IEC 63185 uses higher-order modes of a balanced-type circular disk resonator and provides broadband measurements of dielectric substrates by using one resonator, where the effect of excitation holes is considered accurately on the basis of the mode-matching analysis.
In comparison with the conventional method described in IEC 62810 and IEC 61338-1-3, this method has the following characteristics:
- The values of the relative permittivity εr’ and loss tangent tanδ normal to dielectric plate samples can be measured accurately and non-destructively
- This method presents broadband measurements by using higher-order modes by one resonator
- This method is applicable for the measurements on the following condition
