                          Rufa 2.4 GHz SMD Antenna
                          Part No. 3030A5839 / 3030A5887                Product Specification




1 Features
•   Designed for 2.4 GHz applications: Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi® (802.11b/g), ZigBee®, etc.
•   Easy to integrate
•   Low profile design for use with no ground beneath the antenna
•   High efficiency
•   Light weight
•   Intended for SMD mounting
•   Supplied in tape on reel


2 Description
Rufa is intended for use with all 2.4 GHz applications. The antenna uses a ground plane in
order to radiate efficiently, but this ground plane must not extend underneath the antenna
itself.

The antenna is available in two versions with the feed locations on the right or left hand
side of the antenna.

3 Applications
•   Mobile phones
•   PDAs
•   PNDs
•   Headsets
•   PMPs / MP3s
•   Laptops
•   PC-Cards
•   Sensors

10 Electrical interface

  10-1 Transmission lines
  •   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
  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 track so the characteristic impedance of the coplanar
  transmission line is 50 Ω.



  10-2 Matching circuit
  The antenna requires a matching circuit that must be optimized for each customer’s product.
  The matching circuit will require up to three components and the following pad layout should be
  designed into the device so the correct circuit can be installed:




  The antenna feed pad and the antenna ground pad are indicated in the drawing above.
  Additional pads are for mechanical attachment only and should not be grounded.

                                                                                  Product Specification AE020157-M


                                                            Rufa 2.4 GHz SMD Antenna
                                                       Part No. 3030A5839 / 3030A5887


In addition to the matching circuit, a separate DC blocking capacitor will also be required
between the radio and the antenna matching circuit.

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 offers this service on request.
Contact info@antenova.com for further information.




10-3 Antenna placement
Antenova strongly recommends placing the antenna near the edge of the board. Maximum
antenna performance is achieved by placing the antenna towards one of the corners of the
PCB and with the feed point of the antenna as close to same corner of the PCB as possible.




Additional ground and components near the antenna should be at a distance of at least 2 mm.
Where possible the antenna should be clear of ground from both sides, although the antenna
can work well with a minimum clearance of D ≥ 2 mm as shown in the drawing above.

11 Soldering
This antenna is suitable for lead free soldering.

The reflow profile should be adjusted to suit the device, 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.




12 Hazardous material regulation conformance
The antenna has been tested to conform to RoHS requirements. A certificate of
conformance is available from Antenova’s website.
