Surroundings Around Mounted Antenna The surroundings around the mounted antenna should be preferably free from any metal piece, because the gain and directivity are affected by a metal piece. If the antenna is incorporated in equipment with electromagnetic shielding, open a 4x4cm or larger window through the shielding (h=0mm). Then its gain is hardly lower. (If h is high, make the window larger).

According to the standard IPC/JDEC J-STD-020C, the temperature profile suggested is as follows: Note: All the temperature measure points are on the top surface of the component. If the temperature is over recommended, it will make the component surface peel or damage.

Apply preheating at 120 C for 2-3 minutes. Finish soldering for each terminal within 3 seconds. If soldering iron is over the temperature 27010 C or his held longer than 3 seconds, it will make the component surface peel or damage. Recommendations of the Antenna Foot Print Tables: Unit: mm Recommendations of The PCB Layout: a. It needs at least 5mm clearance between LCD panel/shielding and around antenna. b. Keep ground area around antenna as symmetrical as possible. c. It's can't be obscured metal in top of antenna space.
