Low-Cost Planar Antenna Now Available for U.S. And European Bands
Designers of compact wireless products often find their antenna options and performance limited by size, cost and cosmetic constraints. Affectionately dubbed the "Splatch", a revolutionary planar antenna from Antenna Factor has changed all that. Now this low-cost antenna is available in standard or custom frequencies from 300Mhz to 900MHz to meet worldwide frequency allocations. By utilizing a proprietary grounded-line technique, the "Splatch" extracts outstanding performance from a tiny surface-mount element. Unlike many compact antennas, the "Splatch" is highly immune to proximity effects, making it ideally suited to hand-held applications such as remote controls, pagers, and alert devices. Its stable design allows excellent performance to be obtained even by engineers lacking previous RF experience. The antenna's SMD package is appropriate for reflow or hand attachment. The antenna measures 1.1"L x .5"W x .062"H and exhibits a 50Ohm characteristic impedance and a VSWR of less than 1.9. The antenna costs less than $1.00 in production quantities.
