Antennas for Wireless Applications
1. Features
• Designed for 2.4GHz applications: BT / BLE, Wi-Fi® (802.11a/b/g/n), ZigBee®.
• Low profile design
• High efficiency
• Lightweight
• Intended for SMD mounting
• Supplied in tape and reel
2. Description
Fusca is intended for use with all 2.4 GHz applications. The antenna uses a ground
plane in order to radiate efficiently, but this ground plane must not extend underneath
the antenna itself. Ideal for small wearables.

11. Electrical Interface
11.1 Transmission Line
All transmission lines should be designed to have a characteristic impedance of 50Ω.
• The length of the transmission lines should be kept to a minimum
• Any other parts of the RF system like transceivers, power amplifiers, etc, should
also be designed to have an impedance of 50 Ω
Once the material for the PCB has been chosen (PCB thickness and dielectric
constant), a coplanar transmission line can easily be designed using any of the
commercial software packages for transmission line design. For the chosen PCB
thickness, copper thickness and substrate dielectric constant, the program will
calculate the appropriate transmission line width and gaps on either side of the track,
so the characteristic impedance of the co-planar transmission is 50 Ω.
11.2 Matching Circuit
The antenna requires a matching circuit that must be optimized for each product. The
matching circuit will require up to 3 components and the following circuit should be
designed into the host PCB. Not all components may be required but should be
included as a precaution. The matching network must be placed close to the antenna
feed to ensure it is more effective in tuning the antenna.

12. Antenna Integration Guide
12.1 Antenna Placement
Antenova strongly recommends placing the antenna at the edge of the board.
Maximum antenna performance is achieved by placing the antenna towards one of
the corners of the PCB and with the feed point of the antenna as close to same corner
of the PCB as possible.
Additional ground and components near the antenna should be at a distance of at
least 2 mm. Where possible the antenna should be clear of ground from both sides,
although the antenna can work well with a minimum clearance of D ≥ 2 mm as shown
in the drawing above.

16. Soldering
This antenna is suitable for lead free soldering.
The reflow profile should be adjusted to suit the device, oven, and solder paste,
while observing the following conditions:
• The maximum temperature should not exceed 240 ºC
• However, for lead free soldering, a maximum temperature of 255 ºC for no
more than 20 seconds is permitted.
• The antenna should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 120 ºC more
than 3 times during the soldering process.
17. Hazardous Material Regulation Conformance
The antenna has been tested to conform to RoHS requirements. A certificate of
conformance is available from Antenova M2M’s website.

Packaging
Reels should be stored in unopened sealed
manufacturer’s plastic packaging.
Note: Storage of open reels of antennas is not recommended due to possible oxidization of
pads on antennas. If short term storage is necessary, then it is highly recommended that
the bag containing the antenna reel is re-sealed and stored in like storage conditions as in
above table.
