This material helps suppress near-field EMI noise and interacts and/or influences an Electro-Magnetic (EM) field to help reduce EMI transmissions or reflections 3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series typical uses in the frequency range above the 5-10 MHz range is typically as an EMI EM field absorber as the higher loss (u”) characteristics of the absorber provides excellent EM field reduction. 3M absorber AB8000 efficiently couples to the EM field or provides EM absorbing. ## **Key Features** - High permeability - Absorbing performance from 300 MHz to 4 GHz - High performance resin system for solder reflow stable performance - High temperature resistance (150°C) - Available without adhesive - Multiple thickness options - Supplied on removable liners for easy handling and die-cutting - 2-year shelf life - *Halogen Free *Halogen Free is defined as having maximum 900 ppm bromine, maximum 900 ppm chlorine, and/ or maximum 1500 ppm total bromine and chlorine, per IEC 61249-2-21 ## **3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series** **Transparent PET Film Release Liner** **Composite Absorber Layer** **Blue PET Film Release Liner** ## **3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series Product Construction/ Materials Description** Note: The following technical information and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. |**3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000**|| |---|---| |**Product Code**|**Magnetic Layer Thickness**

Once a baseline level of performance is established, the 3M absorber AB8000 series XY shape, location, etc. can be reduced or changed to determine the minimum material needed to meet a specification. It should be noted that once a maximum performance level is established for the end use device using 3M absorber AB8000 series, the overall design can be reviewed to understand if other absorber changes not initially considered, but now possible with the new performance level associated with using the 3M absorber AB8000 Series, materials could be considered. An example would be the absorber reducing EMI noise levels to allow for improved antenna Signal to Noise (SNR) ratio that could allow for higher data transfer speeds and/or longer-range performance. ## **Effectiveness** - 3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series performance and effectiveness is based on several application considerations: - 1) Permeability (u’) and Loss (u”) of this material at the frequency range or frequency peak of the intended application can affect the performance. Permeability and Loss of the 3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series varies with frequency and is a measure of how well the EM material may couple with the EM field and impact performance. - 2) Thickness of the 3M absorber AB8000 series product can be used to help optimize an application’s performance. - 3) End use application orientation and location affects the 3M EM products interaction with an EM field. ## **3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000 Series** ## **Typical Physical Properties and Performance Characteristics** **Note:** The following technical information and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. Final product specifications and testing methods will be outlined in the product’s Certificate of Analysis (COA) that is provided once the product is approved by 3M for general commercialization and development work is completed. |**3M™ EMI Absorber AB8000**|| |---|---| |**Property**|**Value**| |**Electrical Resistivity******|2 x 106Ωm| |**Typical Permeability (@3 MHz)***|110~130| |**Temperature Range** / *****|1) -40 ~ 150°C**

Permeability can vary with thickness of 3M absorber AB8000. ** Based on general environmental performance characteristics of the polymer binder resin type. Each application should verify temperature and environmental performance in the end-use specific configuration. ***The product has been tested for a typical Solder Reflow temperature profile and the material properties have remained stable *** ASTM D257 Type Test Method ## **Figure 1.
