DATASHEET Part No. M830520 Product: 2.4/5 GHz Ceramic Antenna Part No. M830520 WLAN / BT / Zigbee Embedded Ceramic Antenna 2.4 / 4.9 / 5.2 / 5.8 GHz (802.11 a/b/g/n/c + Japan) Supports: Wi-Fi applications, Agriculture, Automotive, Bluetooth, Zigbee, WLAN, Smart Home, Healthcare, Digital Signage Ethertronics' series of Ceramic Isolated Magnetic DipoleTM (IMD) antennas deliver on the key needs of device designers for higher functionality and performance in smaller/thinner designs. These innovative antennas provide compelling advantages for a full WIFI dual band enabled handheld devices, media players and other mobile devices. Real-World Performance and Implementation Ceramic antennas may look alike on the outside, but the important difference is inside. Other antennas may contain simple PIFA or monopole designs that interact with their surroundings, complicating layout or changing performance with use position. Ethertronics' antennas utilize patented IMD technology to deliver a unique size and performance combination. Wi-Fi / BT / Zigbee Dual Band Ceramic Antenna 2.4 GHz; 5 GHz Greater Flexibility Ethertronics' first-in-class IMD technology enables you to develop designs that are more advanced and that deliver superior performance in reception critical applications.

Antenna Layout Tips (General reference) Important, layout guidelines for correct operation of Ethertronics Ceramic Antennas. Please read guidelines below before laying out the antenna in a device. Figure 1 shows the typical antenna layout. Figure 2 shows Ethertronics' antenna layout. Other Shorting pin Ethertronics Shorting pin and feed pin are shared in Ethertronics ceramic antennas Feed pin Antenna tuning loop: Figure 1 Typical Antenna Layout Figure 2 Ethertronics Antenna Layout (Required) * * (c) 2018 Ethertronics The antenna tuning loop is formed by the PCB layout. The feed pin and shorting pin are combined because it requires very close proximity to achieve more band- width. tel +(1) 858.550.3820 | fax +(1) 858.550.3821 email: eth.info@avx.com 5501 Oberlin Drive, Suite 100 San Diego, CA 92121 - USA DATASHEET | Part No. M830520 2.4 / 5 GHz Ethertronics' Embedded Antenna Specifications Ethertronics produces a wide variety of standard and custom antennas to meet user needs.
