Application information

6.1

Antenna reference

RF output pin must be connected to an antenna which could be:

● Antenna directly printed on the pcb (Figure 4)

● Integrated antenna as, for example, Antenova 30-30-A5839-01 , Murata

ANCV12G44SAA127, Pulse W3008 , Yageo CAN4311153002451K. (Figure 5)

● External antenna connected by means a SMA connector (Figure 6)

external antenna

● Despite of the type of antenna chosen, the connection between the RF out pin and the

antenna must be executed in such a way that the connection trace must be matched to

have characteristic impedance (Z0) of 50 ohm to get the maximum power transfer.

● Matching for 50ohm is depending on the various factors , elements to be taken into

consideration are:

– Type of material, i.e. FR4

– The electrical characteristics of the material ,i.e. the εr , electric constant at

2.4GHz

– Mechanical dimensions of the PCB and traces ,i.e. pcb thickness , trace/ reference

ground thickness, trace width , trace thickness

– Just to give an example , using a 1mm thick FR4 board , with an εr = 4.3 at

2.4GHz , with Cu thickness of 41 µm, the resulted width of 50ohm strip-line is 1.9

mm ( Microstrip type calculation).

Tools for calculating the characteristic impedance, based on the physical and mechanical

characteristics of the pcb , can be easily found on the web.
