VI. Layout Guide

VI.1 Solder Land pattern

Land pattern for soldering (grey marked areas) is as shown below. Depending on Customers

requirement, matching circuit as shown below is also recommended. The footprint is

11*5.7mm, this antenna does not need ground removed on the back-side of the PCB thus

allowing other components to be placed there on crowded boards.

VI.2 Matching Circuit

The most common matching arrangement is the pi matching as shown below. We

have 2.2pF capacitor for Component 3 and 0Ohm resister for Component 2 on EVB.
