Electrical Interface 9.1 Host Interface The host PCB requires the mating connector which is IPEX MHF (UFL) receptacle. The location should be close to the chip/modules pin for the RF. Any feed from this receptacle should be maintained at 50Ω impedance. 9.2 Transmission Line All transmission lines should be designed to have a characteristic impedance of 50Ω. • The length of the transmission lines should be kept to a minimum • Any other parts of the RF system like transceivers, power amplifiers, etc, should also be designed to have an impedance of 50 Ω Once the material for the PCB has been chosen (PCB thickness and dielectric constant), a coplanar transmission line can easily be designed using any of the commercial software packages for transmission line design. 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 feed. A DC blocking capacitor should be placed in line to protect the RF front end. 10. Mechanical Fixing The antenna uses 3M 468MP adhesive on the reverse side of the FPC. The antenna has an easy access split line to peel off to reveal the adhesive side. It is designed for a one time fix to a clean smooth surface. FPC back side Split line for easy peel Antennas for Wireless M2M Applications Product Specification Mitis-SRFL026-PS-1.1 Page 12 Mitis Part No. SRFL026 10.0 Antenna Integration Guide 10.1 Placement For placing the FPC antenna within a device, the host PCB size is not a factor like with PCB mounted antennas. However placement still needs to follow some basic rules, as any antenna is sensitive to its environment. Using six spatial directions shown below as a guide. The antenna FPC section should try to maintain a minimum of three directions free from obstructions to be able to operate effectively. The other directions will have obstacles in their paths, these directions still require a minimum clearance. These minimum clearances are further defined in this section. The plastic case is not included in this, only metal objects/components that will obstruct or come in close proximity to the antenna. Six spatial directions relative to FPC Antennas for Wireless M2M Applications Product Specification Mitis-SRFL026-PS-1.1 Page 13 Mitis Part No. SRFL026 10.2 Orientation of FPC The orientation of the FPC with respect to the host PCB should be defined depending on the unit. The proximity of the GND will have an influence on the antenna so the PCB location relative to the antenna should be considered. The FPC will normally be placed in one of the three following options for orientation. In each option a distance (d) is the critical dimension to consider. Below shows the minimum value of (d) for each. Other obstructions may increase this dimension. 1) Vertical mounted FPC Cable +Connector d ≥ 3mm PCB 1) Co-planar to PCB d ≥ 15mm 2) Planar to PCB (Same plane) d ≥ 3mm Antennas for Wireless M2M Applications Product Specification Mitis-SRFL026-PS-1.1 Page 14 Mitis Part No. SRFL026 11. Hazardous Material Regulation Conformance The antenna has been tested to conform to RoHS requirements. A certificate of conformance is available from Antenova M2M’s website. 12. Packaging The antennas are stored in individual plastic (PE) bags. Then stored within a second bag of 10pcs. Single antenna per bag 10 units per second bag (Labelled) 12.1 Optimal Storage Conditions Temperature -10ºC to 40ºC Humidity Less than 75% RH Shelf life 18 Months Storage place Away from corrosive gas and direct sunlight Antennas should be stored in unopened sealed manufacturer’s plastic packaging. Packaging The shelf life of the antenna is 18 months, provided the bag of 10 pieces remains factory sealed.
