Description

The WLA.01 2.4 GHz loop antenna is a high-efficiency, miniature SMD, edge-mounted ceramic antenna for minimal space requirements for Wi-Fi, WLAN, Zigbee, Bluetooth, and 802.11 applications. The WLA.01 uses the main PCB as its ground plane, thereby increasing antenna efficiency. It is tuned for different PCB sizes by simply changing the value of the matching circuit. At 3.2 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.5 mm, the WLA.01 is one of the smallest antennas available worldwide. This antenna is delivered on tape and reel.

Many module manufacturers specify peak gain limits for any antennas to be connected to a module. Those peak gain limits are based on free-space conditions. In practice, the peak gain of an antenna tested in free space can degrade by at least 1 or 2 dBi when put inside a device. Ideally, you should go for a slightly higher peak gain antenna than mentioned in the module specification to compensate for this effect, giving you better performance.

Applications

  • Bluetooth earphone systems
  • Hand-held devices when Bluetooth/Wi-Fi functions are needed, such as smartphones.
  • IEEE802.11 b/g
  • ZigBee
  • Wireless PCMCIA cards or USB dongle
