The nanoSplatch™ nSP250 is a surface-mount antenna for embedded WiFi/WLAN and other 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz ISM or U-NII frequency band applications. It uses a grounded-line technique to achieve outstanding performance in a tiny surface-mount package. The nSP250 exhibits low proximity effect with a very hemispherical radiation pattern, making it ideal for handheld devices and applications typically subject to interference.
The nSP250 is available in tape and reel packaging and is designed for reflow-solder mounting directly to a printed circuit board for high-volume applications.
Features
- Ultra-compact package (9.6 mm x 8.4 mm x 1.1 mm)
- Excellent performance with smallest ground plane (40 mm x 20 mm)
- Resistant to proximity effect
- Omnidirectional radiation pattern
- Direct surface-mount PCB attachment
- Reflow- or hand-solder assembly
- High gain (2.7 dBi at 2.4 GHz, 3.7 dBi at 5.8 GHz)
- High efficiency (66% at 2.4 GHz, 69% at 5.8 GHz)
Applications
- Single- and dual-band WiFi/WLAN/802.11
- Bluetooth® and ZigBee®
- Smart Home networking
- Sensing and remote monitoring
- Hand-held devices
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- U-NII and ISM applications
