Amphenol RF has added embedded antennas to their antenna portfolio. These surface-mounted chip antennas offer excellent electrical performance up to 8.5 GHz. They support cellular 4G/5G-FR1 frequencies along with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth/BLE and LoRa, UWB and GNSS. Embedded RF antennas are ideal for IoT and smart devices due to their compact size and durable construction.
By surface mounting the chip antenna directly on the PCB, with SMT solution, the need for external antennas is eliminated. These embedded antennas are manufactured out of ceramic or FR-4 materials. They are omnidirectional, high-performing antennas, easy to tune and available in tape and reel packaging.
The small size of ceramic chip antennas enables efficient integration into compact devices where space is at a premium. These antennas are well suited for smart utility meters, robotics, intelligent transportation systems, set-top boxes and gateways, and mobile electronic wallets. Local technical support and matching of antennas is provided.
Embedded chip antennas typically have a monopole, loop or IFA design in order to provide optimal performance. This compact, cost-effective and off the-shelf embedded antenna solution supports a wide frequency range of 0.4 through 8.5 GHz including cellular (4G/LTE/5G-FR1) and complementary (Wi-Fi/BT/BLE/GNSS/LoRa/UWB) antennas.
