The 9003160 from Kyocera AVX is a GPS Ceramic Patch Antenna that operates at 1575 MHz (L1 Band). It has been designed to eliminate design fees, cycle time and optimizes antenna size, performance, and emissions to enable faster time-to-market. This RHCP-polarized antenna provides a gain of 1.0 dBic and has a return loss of 6 dB. It can maintain high efficiency in a variety of device configurations.
The 9003160 requires minimal ground clearance with a low component keep-out area which ensures high selectivity to eliminate the need for additional filters and free up board space. It is available in an adhesive-mount package that measures 18.4 x 18.4 x 2.0 mm. This RoHS-compliant antenna also supports through-hole mounting with a soldered pin. It is ideal for POS, headsets, gateways, access points, telematics, tracking, healthcare, industrial devices, M2M, and embedded design applications.
