Small Bluetooth module with tiny integrated antenna

10 Apr 2018 News

The Micro Reach Xtend™ Chip Antenna, with its ultra small size (4.1 mm x 2.0 mm x 1.0 mm) and low-cost features, has been integrated into the WC7220B0 Wi2Wi Bluetooth module for a full wireless Bluetooth subsystem in a small form factor module. The whole device, where the chip antenna is fully integrated, is designed to reduce to essentials the length and the complexity of the RF design cycle.

Ideally designed for applications such as IoT, M2M, HID, Sensors, Automotive, Smart Home or Medical equipment among others, this Bluetooth module with the integrated and tuned Micro Reach Xtend™ chip antenna also enables a quicker time to market approach within a very small package (8 mm x 12 mm x 1.86 mm) saving time and simplifying the design process.

The ultra-small size chip antenna is perfectly tuned in the Bluetooth module system thanks to the combination of its reduced clearance area required within the customer PCB with its high performance and its integration flexibility. The small form factor, the small footprint required and its easy-to-use (pick & place) nature give to the RF experts a special attraction for its use.
