2.2.1.1 RF Antenna connection
The RF antenna connection pin ANT is very critical in layout design. The PCB line must be designed to provide 50
Ω characteristic impedance and minimum loss up to radiating element.
Provide proper transition between the ANT pad to application board PCB
Increase GND keep-out for ANT pin to at least 250 µm up to adjacent pads metal definition and up to 500
µm on the area below the Data Module
Add GND keep-out on buried metal layers below antenna pad if top-layer to buried layer dielectric thickness
is below 200 µm
The transmission line up to antenna connector or pad may be a micro strip or a stripline. In any case must be
designed to achieve 50 Ω characteristic impedance;
Microstrip lines are usually easier to implement and the reduced number of layer transitions up to antenna
connector simplifies the design and diminishes reflection losses. However, the electromagnetic field extends
to the free air interface above the stripline and may interact with other circuitry
Buried stripline exhibits better shielding to incoming and generated interferences. Therefore are preferred for
sensitive application. In case a stripline is implemented, carefully check that the via pad-stack does not
couple with other signals on the crossed and adjacent layers
Minimize the transmission line length; the insertion loss should be minimized as much as possible, in the
order of a few tenths of a dB
The transmission line should not have abrupt change to thickness and spacing to GND, but must be uniform
and routed as smoothly as possible
