Reflexus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10315 11 Electrical interface 11-1 Transmission lines The antenna should be connected using an RF transmission line. All transmission lines should be designed to have a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω 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 co- planar 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 track so the characteristic impedance of the co-planar transmission line is 50 Ω .

Reflexus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10315 11-2 Matching circuit The antenna requires a matching circuit that must be optimized for each customer’s product. The matching circuit will require up to five components depending on the impedance of the antenna when situated in the device, and pads have been designed for 0603 components for best results. In addition to the matching circuit, a separate DC blocking capacitor will also be required between the radio and the antenna matching circuit. The following pad layout should be designed into the device so the correct circuit can be installed: 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 M2M offers a matching service on request.

Reflexus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10315 11-3 Antenna placement Reflexus should be fitted to the device so that power from the antenna can radiate into free space. Antenova M2M strongly recommends placing the antenna near the edge of the board. Maximum antenna performance is achieved by placing the antenna close to the corner of the PCB with few components or metal objects nearby. Ground can be placed at the side of the antenna, but the remaining space around the antenna, including directly above and below should be free from components or conducting objects. The placements shown here are for guidance only, as the actual performance differences will depend on each individual device. Antenova offers a full range of development support to ensure efficient implementation of the antenna into the specific design. To overcome RF design issues, matching circuits, transmission lines, layout and other components, please contact Antenova M2M (sales@antenova-m2m.com) for design and placement recommendations.

Reflexus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10315 12 Soldering This antenna is suitable for lead free soldering. The reflow profile should be adjusted to suit the PCBA, 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. 13 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. 14 Packaging 14-1 Optimal storage conditions for packaged reels Temperature -10ºC to 40ºC Humidity Less than 75% RH Shelf Life 18 Months Storage place Away from corrosive gas and direct sunlight Reels should be stored in unopened sealed Packaging manufacturer’s plastic packaging. Note: Storage of open reels of antennas is not recommended due to possible oxidization of pads on antennas. If short term storage is necessary, then it is highly recommended that the bag containing the antenna reel is re-sealed and stored in like storage conditions as in above table.
