For the chosen PCB thickness, copper thickness and substrate dielectric constant, the program will calculate the appropriate transmission line width and gaps on either side of the track so the characteristic impedance of the coplanar transmission line is 50 Ω. 10-2 Matching circuit The antenna requires a matching circuit that must be optimized for each customer’s product. The matching circuit will require up to three components and the following pad layout should be designed into the device so the correct circuit can be installed: The antenna feed pad and the antenna ground pad are indicated in the drawing above. Additional pads are for mechanical attachment only and should not be grounded. Integrated Antenna and RF Solutions 7 Product Specification 06MD-0010-2-PS Mixtus Dual-band Wi-Fi SMD Antenna Part No. A10194 In addition to the matching circuit, a separate DC blocking capacitor will also be required between the radio and the antenna matching circuit. Note: The component values for the matching circuit will vary depending on the size of the PCB and surrounding components. The impedance of the antenna should be measured before selecting suitable matching components. Antenova offers this service on request. Contact info@antenova.com for further information. 10-3 Antenna placement Antenova strongly recommends placing the antenna near the edge of the board. Maximum antenna performance is achieved by placing the antenna towards one of the corners of the PCB and with the feed point of the antenna as close to the same corner of the PCB as possible. Additional ground and components near the antenna should be at a distance of at least 5 mm from the left hand side and 18 mm or more from the right hand side as shown in the drawing above.

The reflow profile should be adjusted to suit the device, oven and solder paste, while observing the following conditions: - The maximum temperature should not exceed 240 ºC - However for lead free soldering, a maximum temperature of 255 ºC for no more than 20 seconds is permitted. - The antenna should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 120 ºC more than 3 times during the soldering process. 12 Hazardous material regulation conformance The antenna has been tested to conform to RoHS requirements. A certificate of conformance is available from Antenova’s website.
