Precautions Ⅰ. Surface GND layer around the antenna area should be connected with inner GND layer via through hole. Ⅱ. Matching circuit line should be designed as 50Ω. Ⅲ. Thickness of PCB can be flexible. Ⅳ. Matching circuit should be placed as close as possible to the antenna. Ⅴ. Use of Taiyo Yuden HK1005 and EVK105 series as matching components are highly recommended for the optimized result. Ⅵ. Matching values may be required to get readjusted contingent upon the condition such as proximity to the metal and/or chassis, board size, etc. Recommended land pattern Example of through hole GND ◎ Do not arrange the surface and inside of layer pattern near the antenna mounting area. Confidential Metal approach 3-3. Metal avoidance area Please do not set close to a metal housing, paint including the metal, board GND, the metal chassis,etc. No metal area Front or Back No metal area Side
