5.1.4. Reference Design of RF Antenna Interface
A reference design of antenna interface is shown as below. A π-type matching circuit should be reserved
for better RF performance. The capacitors are not mounted by default.

Figure 26: RM500Q-AE&RM502Q-AE Reference Circuit of RF Antenna
1. Keep the characteristic impedance for antenna trace as 50 Ω.
2. Place the π-type matching components as close to the antenna as possible.
3. Digital circuits such as (U)SIM card, USB interface, camera module, display connector and SD card
should be kept away from the antenna traces.
4. Keep 75 dB PCB isolation between two antenna traces.
5. Keep 15 dB isolation between each antenna to improve the receiving sensitivity.
