Different ground plane form factors with Ignion's NANO PCBs

2022-11-17
●When designing a wearable, the antenna should be small, versatile, and efficient. How can we meet all these requirements and avoid buying a new part for each of the endless list of form factors?
●In this application note you can learn how the NANO mXTEND™ gives Bluetooth connectivity to devices with many different form aspects and sizes. Included is a full demonstration of how the antenna behaves in terms of gain and efficiency for different matching networks which are created to help perfectly tune the antenna for optimal performance in any wearable application. Within the note you can also find out where to place the tiny antenna within the different PCB elements regardless of the shape of the device.
●The NANO mXTEND™ antenna is the perfect choice for devices that are strictly limited in terms of PCB real estate and overall size. It's our product of choice when looking for a reliable and repetitive antenna solution for Bluetooth.
●PRODUCT DESCRIPTION NN02-101
■The market of Internet of Things demands Bluetooth connectivity for diverse PCB form factors. Furthermore, it is fundamental to employ miniature antennas that do not occupy too much space of the PCB, which will be available for other components and purposes. This application note gathers the performance of NANO mXTEND™ (NN02-101) integrated in different kind of platforms. The selected PCB sizes have been chosen from the most common devices, namely pencils, smart watches, air tags, earphones and Bluetooth modules.
■The NANO mXTEND™ is the smallest Virtual Antenna™ chip to date. Featuring a size of 3 mm x 2 mm x 0.8 mm, this off-the shelf-chip antenna has been specifically designed to fit almost every IoT device from entry level to high-end products.
