The W3062A is a low-profile ceramic chip antenna from Pulse Electronics, suited to compact RF designs where board space is tight.
It operates across a 1.565GHz ~ 1.585GHz frequency range with a 1.575GHz centre frequency, using a single-band chip antenna format.
The antenna is designed for surface-mount assembly with solder termination, making it suitable for integration directly onto a PCB. A datasheet is available for layout and implementation details.
Specifications:
- Frequency Group: UHF (1HGz ~ 2GHz)
- Frequency (Center/Band): 1.575GHz
- Frequency Range: 1.565GHz ~ 1.585GHz
- Antenna Type: Chip
- Number of Bands: 1
- Return Loss: -10dB
- Gain: 2.5dBi
- Termination: Solder
- Mounting Type: Surface Mount
- Operating Temperature: -40°C - +85°C
- Impedance: 50Ω
- Dimensions: 7 x 1.6 x 1.6mm
A compact option for RF products that need a small surface-mount antenna in the 1.575GHz band.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Impedance
- Impedance is the total opposition a component or circuit presents to alternating current, measured in ohms, combining resistance with frequency-dependent reactance. It appears in many contexts, such as matching a speaker's impedance (for example 4 ohm or 8 ohm) to an amplifier or the input and output impedance of signal circuits, and a correct match helps avoid weak signals, distortion or damage.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
- RF
- RF means radio frequency, referring to signals used for wireless communication and other high-frequency electronics. A low-noise, stable power supply is important for RF circuits because power noise can affect signal quality and measurements.
